Summary
And there, leaning against the door frame with blood trickling down the side of his head, was Lockwood.
“Morning Luce. I believe this belongs to you,” he said, wearing one of the biggest grins I’d ever seen. And there, sitting in his outstretched hand, was the gold and sapphire necklace.
I carefully took it in my good hand, then threw my arms around his shoulders.
“Thank you,” I whispered.
He hugged me back. “Of course.”
“Yes, yes, good morning to you both,” George said, shoving past us. “I’m going to bed now, and don’t wake me up for at least twelve hours.”
Or: After a case goes awry, and Lucy's necklace gets stolen, Lockwood and Lucy finally confront those nasty things called feelings.

Summary
“What’s the matter?”
Rather than answering her question Lockwood marched to the fridge and poured himself a glass of juice before aggressively throwing himself down on his chair. “Do you know where George is?” he asked.
“Uh no, why? What’s wrong?”
“This is what’s wrong!” He stuck his foot in the air and Lucy stared at in confusion.
“Your foot?”
“No, my socks! Just look at them, they’re ruined!”
It took Lucy another second, but then she saw what the problem was. His socks that were once a pristine white were now a muted pink. Lucy couldn’t help the snort of laughter that came from her mouth.

Summary
Lockwood came up behind me and rested his hands on the back of my chair.
“Hey Luce, I’m going to try something,” he whispered, then brought his hands up to the sides of my head and started massaging in slow circles. “Is this okay?”
I sighed and relaxed against the chair. “Mhm.”
His fingers slipped into my hair and continued massaging against my scalp, and I closed my eyes. It certainly didn’t get rid of the pain, but it relieved some of it, and I was desperately grateful for that.
Or: Lucy gets a headache while on a case, but her friends are there to help

When the best of the best are called back to North Island for a dangerous mission, Zoya and Nikolai must set aside the past and work together once again. But the heart is a tricky thing, and Zoya isn’t sure if she’s ready to let go of her grudges just yet…

A Change In Presentation by Moricuphthior (ApolloBlackwood)

Summary
Kaz walked over all the way to the window of Jesper’s room and stopped in front of it wordlessly. He waited until he heard Jesper close the door, then he turned and cleared his throat before he spoke.
“I have no socks.”
Such a sentence could be a simple statement if said without context. Coming from Kaz Brekker, it could also carry a hidden threat or the assignment of a mission, or worse.
Jesper looked down and saw that Kaz was indeed barefooted. He didn’t know how to feel about this.

Summary
He gave me a soft grin. “Holly and George are alright. I think Hol hurt her shoulder, but she was good enough to go home. George got by with a few scrapes and bruises. They’re okay. George went home to get some rest too.”
“And you?”
He slowly dropped the towel away from my face, tossing it onto the chair he had been sitting in, and met my eyes. “I’m okay, Luce, don’t worry about me.”
I let a sleepy smile crawl onto my face. “You saying that doesn’t help at all, Lockwood. I still worry.”
His grin grew wider, “I know.” He cupped my cheek with his hand and pressed his lips to the top of my head.
Or
Five times Lockwood goes out of his way to help Lucy, and one time she returns the favor.
