    Summary

    Jonathan Sims is rather tired of being kidnapped but Martin Blackwood, a fully-realized Avatar of The Lonely, is a better host that most. True, he's an empty, washed-out version of a human, but piece by piece Jon manages to unearth someone worth knowing behind the isolation and the distance.

    Of course, there's the questions of why Martin kidnapped him in the first place, what The Lonely wants with The Archivist (or with The Archivist out of the way), why Elias Bouchard and Peter Lukas still seem to be working together despite that, and what The Web has to do with. Well. Everything.

    Other than that, though, Jon is as interested in Martin himself as he is in everything surrounding him. Which include the end of the world. A world that Jon's not completely convinced shouldn't end.

    Summary

    "Lullabies aren’t really about ordering babies to sleep. They’re not about food, or love. They’re about safety. You’re reassuring the child that no matter how dark it is outside, it’s safe for them to close their eyes."

    Summary

    Francis and James are the owner and manager of a small theater/gallery and haven't always had the best relationship. The model for the evening's life drawing session and burlesque event is late, and James volunteers himself and Francis to model until she can arrive. It goes perfectly until James chooses a daring pose for them and rediscovers how horribly attracted to Francis he is.

    Summary

    James, feeling fevered, said, “You—you will not tell the Captain any of this, Mr. Jopson? What I said—I ought not to have spoken so freely—I don’t know what came over me—”
