Summary
Essek takes a shaky moment to look down at his own torso and see the fine spray of stone pieces, almost like a glittering powder, spread across his robes, falling as he folds in on himself at the waist. His head falls into the divet created between his knees as he picks a piece up himself, inspecting the smooth concave curve in the huddle of darkness created by his own body. He sees flashes of Caleb turning the stone over in his hands in his study, explaining the workings with pride. He sees himself, feigning ignorance to draw out the small smile that comes with Caleb in the full throws of explaining something from his own school of magic.
The sob comes before he can even prepare himself for its weight.

GHAZAL WHERE I'M BEGGING YOU TO TOUCH ME by igneousbitch

Summary
You had your body and I had mine, and it was a miracle. Your hands against my face were a miracle. The rest of your meat attached to your hands was a prayer answered and a promise broken, but we were flush and gasping and alive, and Harrow—I really thought you might’ve kissed me then.
But I felt it happen. The way your breath suddenly stilled, and your body locked up beneath mine, remembering. How with splintering gentleness, you pushed me away.
“I’m so sorry,” was the second thing you said upon waking.
The first thing had been my name.
Stranded in a safehouse on an Edenite moon, Gideon and Harrow try to put themselves back together.

Dear Gideon and/or Kiriona and/or Incoherently Screaming Lunatic,
If you’re reading this, it means you don’t know shit about fuck. You are mega-confused, you are thoroughly discombobulated, you are feeling like your recent memories have all just fucked off and melted out of your head. Well, congrats, you figured it out. That’s exactly what happened. Hooray! You’re severely brain damaged! After all, why should Nonagesimus have all the fun, am I right?

Summary
Vi doesn’t introduce girls to her family.
First, she’s not one to date or see a girl for more than a date or two, so there’s never anyone to introduce to them anyways. She’s too busy and too broke to keep a steady girlfriend.
Second, her family is nuts, and no one should be subjected to their unique brand of torture.

Summary
On the road, VI can’t stop looking at Caitlyn. Her thoughts are a roaring mix of affection, guilt, curiosity, hunger. When was the last time she felt like this? Has she ever?
What is confounding Vi the most is that Caitlyn still hasn’t asked for anything, nothing concrete. Nothing, anyway, that could give Vi any guidance on how to proceed.
What does one do, when they desire someone without any other kind of strings attached? Without the need to hide away, be quick not to get caught, be rough to not be seen as weak? Is she simply allowed to take and be taken? What if it breaks her? What if it breaks both of them?***
Caitlyn is out of options- the only chance she has of avenging her mother is by partnering with Vi, the sister of her mother's killer, convicted in her place ten years prior. Together, they set out through the country on a desperate search, with the Chembarons on their tail.
Caitlyn is struggling with her grief and her guilt, Vi has to learn how to live. The road will either save them, or swallow them whole.
