    Summary

    Thomas’s back and knees creak alarmingly when he gets out of bed these days. He’s still an early riser, up with the birds, but it’s getting more and more tempting to stay in bed where it’s warm and comfortable, to perhaps hint to Molly that she could bring him breakfast on a tray and he could rise afterwards, perhaps even start work at a later hour.

    He doesn’t. He is the last wizard of London and he doesn’t know what will happen when he dies.

    (Thomas Nightingale, 1900-, wizard.)

    Summary

    Eva sits down next to Xavier one day after she comes home from work. It’s late and dark: there's no game tonight, so he's just sitting there in y-fronts and a dirty bathrobe, lackadaisically playing some stupid game with zombies in it. She spent the whole day fighting with people about their orders—marketing keeps promising people shit, the fuckers—and it's relaxing, chilling on the couch lazily watching Xavier mow down a bunch of flesh-eating monsters while Doug cooks.

    “Boned this girl last night,” he offers up between headshots. It's casual, easy—they're friends, the kind of friends who drink and talk shit about each other. He's stopped calling her a puck bunny and in return she's stopped asking if the test results came in okay.

    Summary

    The youngest son of Queen Tamara of Valdemar was a scheming brat from the day he realised that if he bit his older brother in the arm hard enough during Court meals, said older brother would elbow him in the head and tip over his dinner; Mother would scold; and Nurse would come and take him back to the nursery, where he could eat his pottage in peace without the staring eyes of a hundred well-dressed nobles upon him.
