    Summary

    Baz Pitch loves, in no particular order; David Bowie, punk music, the feel of old vinyl, the smell of coffee (but not the taste), classic books, magic, David Byrne, the fact that he was raised by his aunt Fiona, and maybe, sometimes, Simon Snow.

    Summary

    The first time he sees it, he chases the color across campus, eyes settling on the person it belongs to. A color he thinks he’s imagined, a glimpse of pastel tufts against lush green grass, not yet browned by autumn.

    The moment lasts only seconds. A boy laughing in a large group of friends, haloed by sunlight and smiling faces. He might as well be an ocean away.

    Megumi continues on.

    Summary

    They say the wizard Pitch traverses the land in his moving castle, looking for hearts to steal and devour. Simon's too busy to worry about such things - he's got a farm to run, cheese to sell, and countless wonky goat faces to stitch onto bags. It'd be a bloody nightmare if something were to come along and disrupt his regimented life of cheese, eat, goat, sleep, repeat...say, for example, a wraith who behaves a lot like a scorned vampire, a plucky apprentice, a fire demon, a heedless war, or an unshakeable curse. Yes, it'd be just dreadful if that were to happen. (But if it didn't, there would be no plot, so. Sorry, Simon.)
