    Summary

    "You called it love," Dottore says.

    "Yes." Wind blows over the mountain range, pulling Baizhu's long, meticulously woven braid into disarray. Slips of silver peek through the coils of green. Color bleeding away, the way life bleeds red from a body, long after it has gone stiff and cold. "I loved him."

    "And me?"

    Even under the mellow spring sunshine, Baizhu's face is pale and ill. He gazes across the sea of tree-covered cliffs spread out before them, and the crashing roar of the waterfalls drown out the low, slow sound of his breathing.

    "I hardly know you."

    (OR: Zandik comes back from the dead.)

    Summary

    “Would you disobey your Shogun? Your kin?”
    For half a delirious moment, Kin'emon is confused, he shifts. Kanjuro looks at him, like a hawk would clock the movement of a field mouse. Gaze empty.
    Ashura hisses, “Not you, you idiot.”
    Kanjuro turns back to Orochi.
    “Would I disobey you?” Kanjuro muses, “I suppose it depends if that shame would follow me to the afterlife, if it would keep me from my family. But there is no way to know, without going to that undiscovered country. And therefore, I will depart.”
    “I'll give you anything! Kanjuro, loyalty like yours deserves to live in riches, lavishly. A Kurozumi is a king in this land! Simply make a request of me, and I shall meet it.”
    “I have only the one,” Kanjuro says, “That you give Foxfire Kin'emon a blade with which to cut my head off, once I’ve spilled my entrails here.”

    Summary

    Percy was four years old the first time his dreams led him to his many-great-grandmother’s chambers- a woman long dead yet somehow still seated in front of him, fingers grasping at her hair tightly as she wails about a wooden horse on the beach while her servants look on in pity. He feels the weight of something ancient and heavy settle on his shoulders in that moment.

    He was in his 1st grade classroom when his teacher screamed at him for making up lies about gods and monsters and scaring the other children. He was eight when his mother's own visions become too much for her to bear.

    He's at Yancy when Grover Underwood finally finds him and says "I believe you" for the first time. And as Percy begins to feel lighter, that ancient weight that has followed him his whole life slowly dissipating, he realizes that being believed can be just as horrifying as being thought mad.
