    Summary

    ‘It is no good asking me,’ Laurence said at last, pushing the pattern-book away over breakfast, ‘I am not the one–’
    Not the one who would be living with the result, he had been about to say. But they had hardly accepted Tharkay’s invitation as casual houseguests.

    Summary

    Mr. Tharkay was entirely clever, entirely self-sufficient, and the Admiral was a true gentleman, respectful and warm towards the servants without being permissive, and they were both, Mary supposed, very great men in their own rights. It was only that, when they were together, she couldn't fail to think that they were not in their right mind.

    Tenzing Tharkay, William Laurence, and the servants that observe them.

    Summary

    Buffy is ashamed of him, Spike knows. But when no one else is around, she touches him like she could love him.

    (In which Spike makes a damn good cup of coffee, watches a sunrise or two, and plays confidant to a Slayer who thinks dying to save the world would've been easier than this.)

    Summary

    Murderbot gets put in a box. This is totally fine, and it is coping really well. Thanks for asking.
