    Summary

    “So we got an anonymous report, about some family in the 16ème. You never know, with those, it’s either someone’s ex-spouse wasting our time or the worst shit you ever saw.”

    Emma pours herself a glass and immediately takes a swig. Her face looks hollow in the dimming light of March.

    “It was the second one,” she continues, pressing hard fingers onto the bridge of her nose. “I get to this huge fucking manor, and this lady opens the door, looking down on me like I’m dirt on the bottom of her shoe, right? Refusing to let me in, telling me nothing in there is my business, the works. You know it’s bad when they won’t let you in.”

    In which Emma is a social worker, Gustave is a teacher and Alicia learns to live.

    Summary

    Over ten years after he burned his canvases at the top of the Beaux-Arts de Paris and very publicly went off the rails, Verso Dessendre returns home, a prodigal son trailing rumors of a deeply private family grief. In those same years, Gustave LeClair has built an academic career restoring the aging bridges over the Seine, helping them bear the weight of both history and the humdrum day-to-day. If only he could do the same for his personal life.
    They meet. The confusion is mutual.

    Summary

Alex gets a job, Sebastian marries the farmer, and both of them lose almost everything before finding each other again. A story of two mutual bullies who learn how to messily grow up.

    Summary

    "You thought the open road would give you the freedom you sought," Aerion then murmured. "You forget that a man who enforces the laws of the crown is nothing more than a dog—and dogs are really rather simple to chain." He leaned forward, lifting onto his toes as if trying to stand at equal height to Dunk, though he could not manage. "Would you like me to show you how easily I can chain a dog, Ser Duncan?" he whispered, and the question ignited a fire in Dunk that coursed through his veins like wildwife.

     

    Tasked with finding a poisoner who's been felling entire keeps in the muddy town of Mistwood, Dunk and Egg discover a certain foul-faced prince who's escaped from exile in Lys, and who else is stubborn enough to bring the prince to heel and return him home to Summerhall?

    Summary

    Grace is put on cleaning duty and gets a mysterious fourth bag of vodka for his troubles.

    Rocky begrudgingly takes on the role of Designated Driver slash Space Blob Supervisor, and receives a different kind of gift in return.


    “Grace. What are you doing?”

    Grace's mouth, still smushed against my xenonite, curves upward: Contentment, happiness, satisfaction. Interesting, that it should be prone to smiling when made stupid by ethanol, but not so much when it gets stupid because of a lack of sleep.

    “‘s called a kiss, buddy. I‘m givin’ you. A kiss. ‘cause you're my best friend annnnd I like you. And y’nno what, you're actually pretty nice. When you’re not goin’ outta your way to be mean to me, that is.”

    Summary

    The System had been very clear: User 001 had transmigrated into Shang Qinghua’s character. For the past ten years, as he struggled against the limitations of his child body, Airplane had tried to reconcile himself with the fate that awaited him—the sect burning because of him, his neck snapped by a demon’s hand—and hoped desperately that he could change it somehow.

    Except now… his fate seemed to have changed by itself?

    “You have indeed been selected to join Xing Jiao Peak,” the teacher repeated. “Do you accept?”

    Summary

    Mo Bei wakes up to the last demon of the pack he hadn’t managed to kill before passing out pawing at him, animalistically crouched over him and rifling through his pockets. Panic lances like a spear of ice through the haze of hot, sluggish pain and disorientation, and he wildly swipes at the demon with a burst of qi. 

    The demon yelps and throws himself out of the way, pouncing onto all fours before defensively throwing his arms up over his face, looking at Mo Bei with wide, frightened eyes. He would almost look like a victim, if it weren’t for his inhuman cat-slit eyes. 

    “Mercy!” the demon cries. “Mercy, mercy, Master Cultivator, please don’t kill me! I was just looking for medicine! For your wounds!” 

    -

    Mo Bei, a righteous cultivator, is forced to rely upon a filthy, wicked demon.

    Summary

    Mobei-Jun does not speak human. He does not speak human even a little bit, as Shang Qinghua has tested by saying absolutely unholy filthy things to him that should have gotten him instantly murdered, but instead only earns him a blank, annoyed stare. 

    “My king, please, it’s only water. It’s unpoisoned, see? See, I’ll drink some. Ahh, tasty, safe water! Please, drink it? You’re sweating so much, you’re, like, melting.” He helps Mobei-Jun drink the water. “... God I really want to lick the sweat off your neck.” 

    Mobei-Jun does not react. Ahaha, this is kind of fun. Except for all the ways that it’s so fucking inconvenient. 

    -

    Shang Qinghua wrote PIDW to have many different languages; he does not remember this.

    Summary

    “Proof of concept,” ♫♬♯♩♩♫ says. “We’ve tested it thoroughly to ensure it fits the specified nutritional profile, and several members of our team have ingested small amounts of it to ensure there were no adverse effects.”

    “You ate some of it?” I ask, rudely. I’m too irate to mind my language. Who do they think they are? That meat is for Grace. In a way, that meat is Grace.

    “Yes,” ♫♬♯♩♩♫ says. They and the rest of the human life support thrum know better than to be offended by my occasionally strange behaviour. “Obviously we weren’t going to risk the life of Honoured Grace on a completely untested technology.”

    That doesn’t mean much. There’s a lot of things that are safe for ingestion by Eridians that would outright kill a human.

    Trust Grace, I remind myself. He’ll have thought of all this.

    (OR: Grace's meburgers from the book epilogue. Let's talk about those!)
