Summary
"Didn't your ma teach you table manners?" Ginger asked with a smile.
Marcel grinned, unrepentant, and sucked his index finger up to the first knuckle before removing it with a loud pop. "Alas, mon ami, she tried. But I am, comment dit-on…" He paused, searching for an apt descriptor.
Ginger could think of several, few of which were suitable for polite company. "Incorrigible?" He suggested.

It's another few minutes of ceiling-gazing later that the door creaks open. Trinity rolls her neck to look over, and lets herself grin when she sees that it's Mel on her way in.

Summary
"Exactly," Martin said, with some finality. "You'll be fine. Just don't tell them four plus six is 'who fucking cares'."
Jon flushed. "I'm under a lot of stress."
"I know," replied Martin sympathetically. "You save the world a few times and they still want to know how you did in your GCSEs. There's no justice in this world."

Summary
It is an unfortunate truth that, in general, the first sign of something going terribly wrong is usually easy to ignore. A forest fire begins with a spark, to be sure, but it is equally true that personal failure is foreshadowed by the tiniest of incidents.

Summary
“Bigglesworth,” said von Stalhein, his tone curiously flat. His coat had seen better days; his suit was neatly kept but severely out of fashion. His walking stick was absent and he carried no umbrella despite the inclement weather. “I might have guessed.”
“Erich,” said Biggles. “I hope you’ve been keeping well.” He lit a fresh cigarette for himself, then another. Von Stalhein accepted it when offered, taking a swift and heavy drag, but did not reply. His cheekbone was rapidly purpling; Biggles could just see the edge of a bite mark beneath his collar.

Summary
“Sleep well, laddie,” he said. His crow’s feet deepened as he smiled. “We’ve a long day tomorrow.”

Summary
“It’s Pancake Day,” said Hebblethwaite, belatedly. “Every year the chief gets it in his head that this will be the year he manages to flip one over. Hasn’t happened yet, but hope springs eternal.” He grinned cheekily, a flash of his youth, and slid the now finished pancake onto the crumb-covered plate.
“He tried it in the mess at 666 Squadron once,” offered Lissie. “Wasn’t long before we had to get out the sand bucket.”
