Summary
“Don’t waste my time. When I break your curse don’t kill yourself in the process.”
Neil leans forward. Andrew fights the urge to back away in order to maintain the distance between them. This close, the murky brown of Neil’s eyes eddies and swirls like bathwater down a drain. This close, and he looks almost distant. Andrew wonders if he meant to lean forward at all, or if he’s listing from weakness.
“When,” Neil repeats, his mouth curling about the word like a secret.
Andrew jabs a finger hard into his chest. “Don’t make it if.”
(The one where Andrew's a cursebreaker, Neil gets cursed, and nothing is as easy as it should be.)

Summary
Sansa finds it difficult to look at Jon’s face, with its weathered lines and cragginess. It is the face of the North and a face that northerners trust; the face of Sansa’s brothers and her father, who had been loved and respected by their tenants as their forefathers had been when they were kings. How can Sansa feel anything but resentment, looking into that face and knowing that all of her years of hard work will never earn her the respect that that profile engenders within seconds?
But she does. It is a small, burning coal of something that must be smothered.

Summary
In which Gansey matches with Adam on Tinder, solely for his institutional access to JSTOR. And no other reason.
Inspired by my post on tumblr "gansey texts adam at 4 am begging for his university jstor login" as well as my friend’s strategy to find free wifi in new places by swiping right on every single guy in an area and asking them for tips.
