Summary
Later, after the medics have checked him and the courtiers have fussed over him and Aranessa has been coaxed away at long last from his side, Julien's father will take him by the arm and lead him to the Davinos sitting room in the depths of the Golden Castle. He will pour his son a glass of brandy, and sit him down in an ornate leather chair, and he will talk to him, deep into the night.
We have a blessing upon us, Raimond Davinos will say. He has pictured this conversation several times before, scripted it out painstakingly in his head, but this is not the way he planned for it to go. When we swore an oath to House Royce, we were...changed, magically. Permanently, and forever. This is the way of the fae. This is the magnitude of their gifts. And this is the depth of our loyalty. It lasts through life and lasts through death, all the way to the edge of the Golden Shore.
***
Immortality can be a curse and blessing both. Julien Davinos learns this lesson the hard way.

Before seeing the picture, she'd just slotted Neal Caffrey in as one more thing Peter's brain couldn't let go of, and amusing yourself while your spouse hunted down the greatest international art thief of the age was certainly classier than being a football widow.

Summary
Plans are afoot. Dire, cruel, and absolute. The Lord Tachonis wishes your House gone.
An attack planned on the Palazzo. All courtiers, generals, scions to be murdered, their corpses claimed for legions of undead. No word on a timeline, of course. Primus Tachonis could be coming for them today, or tomorrow, or sometime next week.
So there was no time to waste. The scales of power are tilting in Dol-Makjar. If one Sundered House has to tumble from them to even out the balance...well, so be it.
That House will not be Aranessa's own.
***
Aranessa Royce orchestrates a murder, cleans up the evidence, and tries to go to sleep.

Percy knows he rambles quite a bit in his prayers to Poseidon, but at least he is safe in the knowledge that Poseidon is too busy of a god to ever really listen… right?
Meanwhile, Poseidon is trying to be a responsible god, but Sally Jackson keeps praying to him about their son and Annabeth Chase won't shut up about... what was she even talking about? At least the di Angelo kid keeps giving him McDonalds.

Summary
“Come on, Ren-kun,” Yukari nudges Ren as he slumps. “I dove into being Pink Argus with little experience myself, and I haven’t regretted it since. Maybe you’ll feel the same.”
Ren thinks about it. His life really couldn’t and shouldn’t revolve completely around the shadow world, he supposes. And he’s not obligated to do any more than this if acting doesn’t agree with him after all.
Ann’s going to freak. Futaba is going to lose her shit.
“You remember the Phantom Thieves of Hearts business a few years back?” The director asks. “It won’t be a complete one to one, but I do have to admit that this series’ plot is loosely based on it.”
Okay, now that’s just unfair. Now Ren has to take the role.
So that’s how Ren becomes a Featherman Ranger.
Or, Amamiya Ren becomes a Featherman actor, bases his character off Akechi, and the real Akechi Goro disastrously simps from afar.

Summary
"You're not doing so well, Sir Davinos," Aranessa says lightly. "Are you tired of the ball?"
"Ever perceptive, my lady." Julien's bow is precise, regimented, rehearsed - exactly as deep as it needs to be to convey respect to the other Houses, and not an inch more. Trust him, of all people, to treat a social situation like a combat encounter. "What gave it away?"
"The hunched shoulders, mostly. Also the frowning, and the general air of aggression."
That coaxes a laugh out of him, a low, barking thing. He snorts, rolls his eyes at Aranessa for the barb, and she finds herself hard pressed not to smile, yet again.
It's easy to be informal around him. Too easy. It's part of why she tries to keep some degree of distance at events like this, more for her sake than his. She can't let the mask slip - but with him, the temptation has always been to forgo it entirely.
***
Julien is woefully out of practice in the ways of dance. Aranessa is more than happy to help teach him.

[“Hey,” Sylvain says. “It’s safe here, but—just in case—” He stops, biting his lip.
“Just in case of what?” Dimitri asks.
“Lock your door and shutters at night,” Sylvain says. “Good night, boss.” He closes the door behind him as he leaves, too quickly for Dimitri to do anything.]

Summary
The day Frank Columbo met Eugenio Franchitti was a day blessed by God: God and all the real angels and saints, specifically Adjutor, Philip Neri, and Barbara. The war was going full swing; on the beach there were the leftovers, the women and boys and girls, and the oldest Franchitti kids who hadn’t shipped overseas, Geno and Cecilia, first cousins. Frank hadn’t noticed ’em at first, either of ’em, the tall and lanky boy and girl with skin like gold and eyelashes like fringed velvet burlesque fans, physical traits the magazines said you could shell out for but the Franchitti kids had ’em in spades all natural; but once he had he couldn’t stop noticin'.

The story of how Columbo and Mrs. Columbo came to be.

Summary
“Are you really reading this awful novel?” Tianlang-Jun blinks as a young but nonetheless sharp voice interrupts his lecture. He looks down to see the two greenest but also sharpest eyes he has ever seen.
Those eyes wouldn’t look out of place on a snake, he muses before sending a kind smile to the child. The young master of a house if his clothes are anything to go by. “Is that so? I thought the plot was interesting.”
A nasty glare - which doesn’t suit the youthful face to say the least - is sent to The Erotic Tales of the Sun Princess. “It’s just a poor excuse to write cheap pornography by someone who has never touched a woman.”

In which Tianlang-Jun adopts a young Shen Jiu.
