    Summary

    Lip had done his best to stomp down the slow flush of jealousy every time he'd seen his brother sprawled out on the living room floor with Mandy, or pressed up against each other from shoulder to hip in Ian's narrow bed, or just shoving each other around for the hell of it, laughing as they walked down the street.

    Summary

    Steve made his choice, hiding behind his too-big Letterman jacket and later that overpriced Members Only while his friends went out of their way to make Jonathan’s life hell; or what he thought, in the ninth grade, was hell.

    Hell actually came two years later, when they dragged Will’s body out of the quarry.  When Lonnie came home.  When his mother sat him down like he was three years old again and said, smiling tightly, I’m going to have a baby.

    Benjamin, the magnificent life-fixing-grief-resolving-replacement-baby, was born nine months later.

    Summary

    “Stop looking at him like that,” Kleya mutters under her breath when she steps back over to guide him further away from ears that have proven to be quite keen.

    He can’t fathom what his face is betraying. “Like what?”

    “Like he belongs on a display shelf rather than showing one off.”

    Curious assertion; but he does, doesn’t he? This highly-sought gem, a prize of unspeakable worth in the right hands, and the only hands that get to lay claim are his own. It’s exponentially more satisfying than killing him ever could have been, and the only thing that would make it more so is if he could openly taunt the enemy with it.
