    Summary

    The second thing Blake notices about Sun Wukong isn’t his kind smile, or his concerned expression. It’s the way he wears his shirt open, proudly displaying the top surgery scars that accentuate his pecs: an underline in bold, declaring all that he is. Without thought, without fear.

    Blake’s never had that kind of courage in her life.

    Summary

    And Marian, poor soul, was troubled in mind,
    For the absence of her friend;
    With finger in eye, she often did cry,
    And his person did much commend.

    Perplexed and vexed, and troubled in mind,
    She dressed herself like a page,
    And ranged the wood to find Robin Hood,
    The bravest of men in that age.
     

    Or: to make an omelette, you've got to break an egg's shell.

    Summary

    "Love does not consist only of gazing at each other, but in looking forward together in the same direction."

    Antoine de Saint-Exupery

    Yang Xiao Long and Blake Belladonna have never met, but they share a common problem; parents who are over eager for them to get married and settle down. They also have a looming sense of responsibility to their villages inherited by the nature of their last name. When Yang is set up on ANOTHER blind date by her father, this time with the daughter of two prominent Faunus Equity activists after they give a presentation in Patch, she humors him because it's not like she's dating anyone for real any time soon. She isn't expecting how easily she gets along with Blake, but eventually she recognizes a painful amount of herself in the other person.

    Inspiration strikes one day; why not get married? It gets their parents off both their backs, and Blake a free ticket out of Kuo Kuana. Not to mention, free space to explore themself. What's the worst that could happen? Both of them come to learn that none of Yang's ideas are ever simple.

    Summary

    No archer ever lived that could speed a gray goose shaft with such skill and cunning as his, nor were there ever such yeomen as the merry men that roamed with him through the greenwood shades. Not only Robin himself but all the band were outlaws and dwelled apart from other men, yet they were beloved by the country people round about, for no one ever came to jolly Robin for help in time of need and went away again with an empty fist.
