Summary
Her mother holds her face, a hand on each cheek. Her grasp is too firm. “Maddie. You do not want to marry a woman. You do not think women are pretty. You do not love women.” Madeline opens her mouth to protest but is silenced by the look in her mother’s eyes. “This is not a discussion, dear. This is something you are going to learn here and now. We will not have this conversation again. Do you understand?” Madeline nods, shakily. She doesn’t understand why, but she certainly knows what her mother means. And she knows to follow the rules.
Character study of Madeline throughout her life. She and her mom are both painfully aware that she's a lesbian but they're trying to pretend that's not real--lots of stuff with her mother, lots of low self-esteem depressing sex with men. MadHel, but it's gonna take a sec and most of it will be repression and yearning.

Summary
"Despite the impulse, Karen hasn’t actually brought Ivy over to her own place yet. She planned on it, of course, said all the right things and led Ivy through the grid-streets for a while… Instead they went out for kebabs, where she got the chance to wipe away sauce from Ivy’s chin. It was no great loss. But to enter comes with expectations. She’s had boys there before without going all the way; somehow with Ivy that seems harder. As if, by opening up her home, the whole flood of desperation will rush to her unassuageable."
—OR—
The cracks in Karen and Ivy's relationship begin to show.

Summary
Ava is thriving in her post-Deborah era. (She's not.) Her phone is also sending audio recordings of her sex life to Deborah. (An accident, genuinely.)
Deborah is annoyed. (She is, but she's also definitely getting off.)

Summary
And even if getting Rhaenyra in as a soloist was a staggering show of nepotism, she was still the best concert pianist on the planet. It was like when Dmitri Junior recorded Shostakovich’s second. You could get mad about it for a bit, but it was ultimately fair game. Alicent had already reached all these conclusions because Viserys had spoken to her weeks ago about programming the Concerto, which only had the unwanted effect of giving her time to turn it over in her brain like a particularly nauseating Rubix cube. Each solution of the puzzle led her to the same conclusion: she would be seeing Rhaenyra imminently, and there wasn’t a damn thing she could do about it.
After ten years apart, Rhaenyra Targaryen re-enters Alicent's life for a set of solo engagements with her orchestra. Things go about as well as expected (not very).

Summary
"Want a tarot reading?"
Sofia raises an eyebrow. "You know I’m not your sucker anymore, Iga."
"For free.” Iga’s sparkly blue eyes almost disappear when she smiles big.
“With playing cards?” Sofia sits up fully on the old leather couch. She tucks a clean napkin from their Thai takeout into the heavy magic tome she’d been reading (at Esther’s request and who was Sofie to deny her favorite wizard?) and sets it aside.
Iga nods and shuffles the worn deck of cards in her wrinkled hands. "The fates will speak through any means offered."
Excuse Sofie if she’s a bit skeptical that the set of cards they’d been playing Go Fish with an hour or so ago could also give her meaningful insight from ‘the fates’ about anything going on in her life (no-longer-dead husband, angel baby, fae not-queens, Voxes, etc). But, honestly, what did she have to lose?
“The past: the five of Clubs. Loss, but a gain as well. I think I can guess what this may be eluding to…” Iga lays another card out. "The present: The Queen of Hearts…a lover, affairs of the heart, a strong woman. I’d say this represent you, no?” Sofia stares at the card. The queen on the card has dark hair, red lips, mismatched eyes. “and the future…”

Summary
Basrar swirls his hands in front of him, and with a burst of magic an ice cream sundae appears on the table.
“Fantastic,” Ayda says. “The creation of something from nothing. A truly splendid use of conjuration. I would deeply enjoy discussing the differences between the conjuration magic of djinn and the conjuration magic of wizards, but I won’t have this conversation now, because it wouldn't be as enjoyable as eating ice cream with Fig. On this date. We’re on a date. It's our first date, I’m very excited about it.”
“She’s my succubus,” Fig says. “Can we get spoons?”

Summary
There’s something wrong with your right eye. It fucks up your depth perception, worse even than if it had gone completely blind - it still half-works, giving everything around you a muffled look, a murky, smeared blur that only really manages to pick up movement. Next to useless, another breakage to add to your growing pile of broken things.
Yet you swear, at night, when you squint the other eye – the good eye – closed, your vision is sharper than ever. You wonder, sitting in front of the fireplace at night, if the light ever reflects off the iris, remembering the way yellow eyes blinked out from beyond the darkness just before you were dragged away in the night.
Something in you is changing, and you don’t yet know what.

Summary
Shauna has done the math, knows her life expectancy tops out at seventy-eight or so—and that’s not accounting for what havoc has been wrought on her insides by nineteen months of scrounging, scavenging, praying, and all the horrible things that live in the spaces between those words. She’s got about fifty-six years of exactly this to go, give or take. She can do it. She has to. It’s no more than she deserves, no less than she owes.
She lasts a month.
Everyone said marrying Jeff Sadecki was a mistake, but they were wrong. Shauna Shipman doesn’t make mistakes. She doesn’t make anything.
Shauna breaks.
(Or: Shauna invites cataclysm in pursuit of closure.)
