Summary
“When did you start smoking?” Caitlyn asks, brushing the stray crumbs away from her lips. Vi’s not sure if she realizes that she’s leaning further and further into her space.
Her sapphire iris is being completely swallowed up by her pupils, the area around it reddening. She’s a little flushed and her lips look incredibly soft.
“A while after I stopped drinking.”
Caitlyn hums, but she doesn’t lean back satisfied. She keeps staring, her head tilted slightly at Vi as she wipes her mouth a few more times. So proper.
Vi holds the eye contact. Not because she wants to, but because that just seems to be what happens.
“Do you have family around here?”
The question takes a minute to compute since Vi’s a little distracted by the strength of Caitlyn’s nose.
“Something like that.”
Vi should be annoyed. She is, actually.
Her smoke sessions are supposed to be chill, relaxing and quiet. Not lonely, alone. Now Caitlyn’s asking questions she doesn’t really need answers to.
And she’s leaning into Vi’s space like she wants to be there.
“You’re so interesting, Vi.”
Not hot. Not cool. Not sexy.
Interesting.

“See?” Harry beams, smugly. "The city-”
“Loves me, yes,” sighs Kim. And yet - the idea does not trouble him as much as it should.Kim talks to Mademoiselle Revacholière, too. He just does it on the road.

Summary
KIM’S COUCH: Kim’s couch fucking hates you.
PAIN THRESHOLD: This is more than just uncomfortable. I think this thing is actually trying to kill you.
KIM’S COUCH: If I was trying to kill you, punk, you’d fucking know. Loose spring to the spleen, sudden frame collapse, maybe even - who knows - a slowly subsiding fall of cushions, suffocating you in the night. This? This is just a test of will, to see if you’re man enough for Kim. Which you aren’t, by the way.

Summary
Sir Gideon Nav is the youngest knight in the Ninth Kingdom of the Empire. Princess Harrowhark is the heir to the throne, and a talented mage. Childhood friends turned rivals and enemies, they've both left scars on each other.
When Lady Dulcinea of the Seventh shows up at their gates with plague symptoms, Gideon is immediately smitten. Over Harrow's protests, Gideon volunteers to care for her. But Dulcinea is not what she seems, and everything goes horribly wrong.
Now Gideon and Harrow are on the run, in disguise as a married peasant couple, trying to get to Harrow's allies in the Sixth Kingdom—with magic and monsters in hot pursuit.

Summary
The cabin the four of them find themselves in is - fine. It's sturdy, it's dry, it has everything they need to keep them alive and safe. But the only option for bathing is the big porcelain tub, and for Harrow, that's a problem.
[Or: I invent a scenario that causes Gideon and Harrow to bathe together and work through trauma, and also their stupid gay feelings]
