Summary
Who dared to dream as a man of the Akademiya? That riddle’s very existence bothered him like a stray thread unraveled from the ends of a shirtsleeve, or a stray seed that had found its way into his fruit’s flesh, or an itch on his back that he could not quite reach properly. Kaveh was like a rune left untranslated, its meaning beyond the capability of his mother tongue, a multitude of opposing meanings concisely tucked into one compact symbol. That untranslated rune was a challenge in itself, to make into solid words meaning and sense, to turn paradox into logic. Even after all these years, he had yet to solve it.
Kaveh is commissioned to build the Palace of Alcazarzaray. Al-Haitham puzzles over its existence, among other things.

Summary
In his sophomore year of college, Mydei's life goes so downhill that he stops persuing his piano performance degree entirely and drops out, breaking up with his boyfriend of six months in the process so that they can both continue to follow their true dreams.
A year and a half later, Mydei practically has everything he could possibly want: a feature with the biggest pop star in the world, a band that healed him from the darkest parts of his life, and one hit that he pretends he doesn't hate. He hasn't touched a piano in years and it's the happiest he's ever been, so why can't he shake the feeling that he's missing something?

Summary
“Monsieur Chief Justice,” Wriothesley says, not sure if he wants to laugh or walk straight into the sea. “Are you unfamiliar with floriography?”
Returning to his dockets, Neuvillette says, “I understand it is a passing trend among the young people of Fontaine, but I have never given it much of my own regard.”
Wriothesley chokes. Half of Fontainian society communicates via the unspoken language of flowers, using bouquets to augment or even subvert their messages. “I wouldn’t call it a passing trend,” Wriothesley manages, strangled.
Wriothesley teaches Neuvillette the subtle political art of floriography, and Neuvillette takes the opportunity to communicate more privately with the Duke.

Summary
“Why do they throw flowers?”
“They’re well-wishes,” Phainon answers. “Crocuses are for new beginnings, cyclamen are for love, colchicum for fidelity. They’re blessing the marriage.”
Mydei’s hand shifts a little lower, warm fingers circling Phainon’s wrist. “Your traditions are terribly sentimental.”
“Romantic,” Phainon corrects. “Just call them romantic.”
|
To save his people, Mydei strikes a deal. Aid in exchange for two things: the coreflame of Strife and his hand in marriage.Series

Summary
“I won’t let you go,” Dan Feng breathed, clutching at Yingxing’s back. “Never.”
Yingxing pressed a kiss at the crown of his head, between his two horns, and Dan Feng could feel his words rather than hear them.
“Promise me.”

(As resurfaced memories of the past come together with his present, Dan Heng learns once again what it means to love)

Summary
"Forgive me if I'm being presumptuous, Lord Phainon," Castorice says, all too politely. "But could you not just message him?"
In the wake of Mydei’s departure from Okhema, Phainon pines, has dreams, gets psychoanalyzed by Hyacine, and loses a duel to his Titan-possessed ex-professor—not necessarily in that order.
