Summary
It stood at the doorway to the tower, pawing at the door dumbly. The ultrablue flesh of it ate the light from the modest lamps set up at the tower's base, turning the star beast into an outline limned only just enough to give an indication of form. It was pinpricked by a double handful of cold blue brightnesses across its body, which did not seem to cast any light beyond its own outlines.
It turned, and he felt like he was looking at a hole in the world.

Summary
Harrow was learning to be warm.
She squirmed to turn over, stretching out so she could press her back against Gideon's long flank, shoving a pillow in place so she could comfortably stay tucked with her head in the dip between the woman's bicep and breast. Harrowhark's lover (what an odd notion) stirred, the snotty purr of her snore interrupted for a moment.
"Good?" came her voice, loud and slurry with sleep.
"Mmm," Harrow reassured, knowing this for a false awakening. Gideon always slept well, after.
"Mhmhmmhm. Took care'a you good," she chuckled with sleepy lechery.
Harrow huffed, the echo of exasperation wrapping a painful fondness. "Nav, go back to sleep."

Summary
Kiriona Gaia is stuck back in her undead body, with her father and her sister prince, on a ship full of Cohort soldiers who salute her and stare on the way to the front lines of the war. She has the depression, which seems to be genetic; Ianthe is hiding and plotting, which is probably also genetic; and every time she tries to sleep, she dreams about Harrow.
A canon-divergent au set during the events of Nona the Ninth that asks: what if Ianthe had access to a vat womb? And what if her bad choices became Kiriona's problem?

Summary
“What’s with the sword theme?” She asks.
“Aiglamene likes swords.” The walls of Scabbards are leaden with them, replicas of swords, pictures of swords, a suit of armor off in a corner holding–you guessed it–a sword.
“So why not call the bar ‘Swords’?”
“Well,” Gideon is only a little delighted that she’s asked this. “Imagine a sword is a dick, then a scabbard must be a–”
“Ah.”
“‘Pussys’ would be too on the nose for a lesbian bar, so Scabbards it is.” Gideon leans forward, hands on the counter and a conspiratorial tone in her voice. “You do know you’re in a lesbian bar, right?”
“Yes, Griddle. I have eyes and critical thinking skills.” Harrow takes another too-big drink.
“I didn’t know nuns went to lesbian bars.” Gideon says, to be a shit.Or: I was just gonna write a fun little thing about Gideon being a bartender and a drummer because I find both of those things attractive, and then 2k of tragic catholic guilt attached itself to Harrow like a revenant, so shit got angsty.
There'll be porn in later chapters, I promise.Series

Great characterization. You can feel how they care about each other and why they enjoy each other's company.

Summary
Each morning, Harrow fiddles with bone, to keep her hands busy while she waits for Gideon to wake up. So far, she’s made a miniature fish, a miniature snake, a few miniature trees, and approximately 573 wedding rings.
