    Pelle takes it all in good humor. “Your God doesn’t reign here, my friend.” His eyes are wide pools of ice and feathers, staring through him and glinting with mischief.

    She turns to face you. She has eyes as dark as coal. You want to tell her how your father died of black lung in the Powder River Basin. Not many people do that, these days. Die of black lung, that is. You want to tell her that she could kill a man. She’s afraid of you and you can’t understand it. You’ve always found yourself harmless.

    Hannibal is sitting on the bed with her, on the sex-strewn sheets which have to be fragrant with their lovemaking and sweat by now. And he's patting at Abigail's hair as she leans into him, soothing her.

    They're talking quietly and it strikes Will then, that this is what Abigail looks like with a father.

    Of course, he realizes. She wanted her and Archie to have this singularity. This is what romance means to her.

    And he hates how much he fucking loves this snobby bullshit.

    He hates how precisely she imagined his world for him.

    Thinking back: how reckless of him. Someone could have seen him standing there.

    And he wishes that'd been the case.

    He maybe would have walked on, and not pondered for a full minute whether it's possible to slide, or rather stick a small, folded piece of paper in the thin, thin vertical slit near the lock -that space between the door and the rest of the locker.

    Before he knows it, he stops pondering.

    And actually writes a note, that he leaves at that exact spot.

    don't mind Davis he's a loser

    can't make peace with what his life has become

    thank you for saving me

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “I guess I just don’t see why marrying me and having babies would be so bad,” she says softly, curling her fingers around her keys. She looks so sad when she says it. Her chin dips and she looks like she might cry and before he knows it he’s falling at her clumsily, pushing her body against the wall and covering her mouth with his. She stiffens for a moment, her hands coming up to his chest as her keys fall to the floor with a jangling sound, but she doesn’t push. Instead her hands curl and take hold of the lapels of his jacket and her mouth opens under his.

    She had no idea what he was talking about, but felt no need to tell him so. Let him sit and stew, let him think her dangerous. She felt dangerous, and wanted to be. She wanted to be a predator, she wanted to be the wolf and the dragon and the monster.

    “I’ve seen it before but—I didn’t care.” His voice was garbled, not wanting to reveal to her whatever vulnerability he perceived was her fault. It was wise of him. Wendy would have driven a dagger into his heart if she could have. “Now I—now I—”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This is treason. She knows that it is. One last time, she looks up at Osiris’s face, calm and gold above them. Lord of Silence, yes, but Lord of Love as well. His brother Seti had killed him for desire and Isis had loved him enough to find him scattered all over the world and piece him back together. There would be no legend, no ritual, no temple standing in his honor if love had not put the god back together. Love is power, tenacity, divine.

    This is treason, but it is not blasphemy.

    "Fuck you, Dredd," she snaps, and then her hands are on his helmet, pushing it up and off his head, and this has to be her, has to be her screwing around in his head, because if this was real he thinks he would probably be stopping her and he's not he's not he's not even trying.

    “But people don’t pick sides. They’re just born to whichever… country, and that decides it. A British Muggle cares more about British lives than German, don’t they?” The question is rhetorical, but he asks it without apology.

    She doesn’t respond, because she knows this. She’s known this about Malfoy, that underneath it all, it’s about family, about where he belongs, about what he is and has grown to believe.

When she goes to a jazz club, every dark head she glimpses on the dance floor reminds her of Danny. Every blonde, tall woman on the streets makes her want to call out Helen's name.

    Lydia’s tried to get better at putting words to the things she’s feeling, at dropping all the adorbs and actually saying stuff sometimes, but it’s so big, what Gigi’s telling her, and Lydia doesn’t want to screw it up with, “Sorry that your mom’s dead.” It would be different, maybe, if Gigi was just Darcy’s sister or just a friend of Lizzie’s, but she’s not, not exactly. She’s Lydia’s friend too now, like really, and so Lydia rearranges the carrots into nothing and tries to think of something to say.
