    Summary

    She had no supplies, no food, no water, and no experience of life on the road, so perhaps it was a blessing that she got no further than the castle walls.

    Summary

    The man named Shadow is with them. He has been injured in some profound way; Terra can tell by the way he walks.

    She does not ask, she does not pry, but her expression gives her away, because Shadow abruptly says, "It’s nothing. I’ve been hurt worse. Don’t waste your pity."

    Summary

    Xander, turning the key in the ignition, glanced at Elise in the rear-view mirror. The speakers sang: I blow you a kiss, it should reach you tomorrow, reach you tomorrow-- Their eyes met for a moment, before Xander looked away and pressed down on the gas pedal.

    Summary

    Afterward, the ghosts give her shit about it.

    "HEY. HEY. HEY. WE KNOW SOME LOVE SONGS TOO. FOR YOU TO SING. SING. SING. TO YOUR BUNKIE ON THE NEXT ROUND."

    There is nothing more humiliating than being mocked by a hive-mind that communicates strictly in snippets of military jargon and Glenn Miller songs and the argot of whatever teenager they are currently possessing.

    Summary

    "If you wanted, you could crush anyone in this place. You know exactly the place to bring your heel down. Figuratively speaking." Sampo paused thoughtfully. "Literally, too."

    "As a doctor, I took an oath," Natasha said. "It precludes stepping on people."

    "Pity," Sampo said, turning his head to look at her. "I bet you'd be great at it."

    Summary

    "I think he should be a pirate. A one-eyed pirate."

    As one, all of them immediately looked at Saber, the stranger that Celica had hired in Novis Greatport, the one-eyed mercenary sleeping shirtless before them with all the contemptuous ease of a cat on a sunny windowsill.

    Summary

    Rictor wonders what it would be like to kiss her.

    (He has kissed her a dozen times in this dead garden, and each time she has bitten his lips hard enough to draw blood, the coppery taste bright on his tongue, her breath fetid against his mouth, and each time he has immediately forgotten all of it.)

    Summary

    "I'll flirt with you a little, and then she'll be wild with jealousy. And then you'll put your phone number back in my phone, and I'll win twenty bucks."

    "Twenty bucks," Wesley repeated flatly.

    "And the grudging respect of those nerds that I work with!"

    Summary

    I may have shrieked. I may have jerked my hands off the wheel. Certainly the car was already twisting as we careened off the road. By the time we broke through the edge of the woods, we were spinning with such force that the passenger door's latch once again betrayed its one purpose in life and flew open.

    Mrs. Horner's pie tumbled into the darkness and was lost.

    Summary

    The first thing Teagan saw, when he was restored to himself, was the Warden's face, her eyes wide, her mouth grim. She was bending over him. There was fresh blood in her hair.

    And Teagan's first thought, once he was restored to himself, was a querulous and helpless complaint: Maker, please, I already love too many perishable things in this life. I do not have space for another.

    Summary

    "Life is sweet, even with its aches and pains," Hu Tao said. "Who can blame his ghost for tasting it twice?"

    "That ghost was never content. He was driven by terrible urges, obsessions, not by life's small pleasures." Zhongli smiled a strange smile, though Hu Tao was too busy cracking a walnut to notice.

    Summary

    The dolls had committed various acts of treason against their queen (Clarine), and now they found themselves being tried and executed by the royal headsman (also Clarine). She began with hangings and then advanced to beheadings, and by the time her father happened to find her in the garden, the stragglers were being broken on the wheel of the gardener's little cart.

    Summary

    She frowns intently as she scrabbles to pull the buckle tight. Another man might have recoiled at her expression.

    Gilles, though, simply holds her armor in its proper position until Jeanne finishes.

    Summary

    "I suppose you like the stories about knights rescuing maidens from fell monsters," Sonya said. "All the exciting chivalry and swashbuckling."

    "No," Genny said decidedly. "I like novels for all the kissing."

    Deep in Sonya's being, a heretofore unsuspected internal spring went sproing.
