Summary
Aiglamene's life has been long, and brutal, pockmarked by primordial dreaming like the kiss of blade to bone. Oss, tallow, blood, incense - the Tomb. The pulse of thanergy, just out of her reach.
None of it is so obliterating as the feel of rotted flesh where a dead girl's heart should be.
---
Aiglamene and Gideon share a moment after the events of Nona the Ninth.

Summary
Liliya remembers that day, crisp and clear in the private recesses of her brain. The pleasant burn of smoke in her lungs, the familiar quietude of winter.
A frame of dark hair, sweet bright eyes. The first time she heard Jane’s voice, pitched up in that uncertain tone. Eager to please.
That’s the moment she should have guessed it would all become so fucking complicated.

Summary
Nat is twenty one and she is tired. Sober for over a year, working the same four shifts (Thursday through Sunday, 4-8pm) at the same dingy used bookstore as a weird mutualistic favor to her mom’s friend’s aunt. Drowning in pity, left knee aching in the mornings, kept alive by the good grace of a Keurig and the crotchety shop cat’s need for semi-regular mealtimes, Nat is in no shape to rescue anyone.
A stranger with dark hair and darker eyes, rambling about queens and goddesses, doesn’t fit well in her nonexistent plans.

Summary
The last six months of Gideon Nav's life have been, more or less, the best of her life. Sure, it's not hard to beat over 18 years of gruel and being homeschooled by horrible nuns, but she has a job, even if it's a shit one, has discovered Dunkin', and splits the bills with her gremlin roommate.
Unfortunately, Drearburh, a few months as a gas station attendant, and a lifetime of living in each other's pockets still didn't prepare her for a sick Harrow.

Summary
If Beverly wasn’t setting him up for the world's meanest prank, then she was telling the truth. And so was Stan, so was Mike. Eddie’s feelings for Richie were mutual. All this time orbiting each other so carefully, not knowing where the other stood, not wanting to make the first move and risk ruining everything. In truth, they have only ever delayed the inevitable.
And Eddie had decided that he was done waiting.
“The track shorts are a good idea,” Bev muses over the phone, looking far more contemplative than she should while trying to get her friends laid. “I think he likes those cute red ones best.”

Summary
"Right." Eddie's not sure what to think. "Well, thanks, for sticking up for me." Eddie's also not sure if he means that, but it feels like something he should say.
"Yeah, 'course," Richie replies. "You're my sister's best friend."

Summary
In the remnants of the Empire, Harrowhark Nonagesimus, former Reverend Daughter and Ninth Saint to serve a dead lord, doesn't know what to do with herself, let alone her former cavalier. So she responds by doing the only thing she can think to do: pushing her away, so they'll both have the chance to start fresh, with the promise that she'll come find her again when she's ready.
It takes some time, and tears, and trials. Quite a lot of all those things, if she's honest; healing is messy work. But slowly, slowly, she starts to get there. And when she's ready to make good on her promise, all there is left for her to do is find out whether there's still someone waiting for her.
Or, a tryptich about love lost, unearthed, and reconstructed.
