Summary
Three years back, Marie thought platonic love was the same as romantic love. She was so confident, in fact, that she made a bet with Pearl that if she were ever to get into a romantic relationship and felt the same way that she did in close platonic relationships, Pearl would have to do anything she asked, and that if it was different, Marie would have to do anything Pearl asked.
Nothing could possibly go wrong here. Surely, this is a safe bet to make.
Right?

Summary
'Unintentionally, Marie immediately looked at Shiver to gauge their reaction. Their expression didn’t change for a few moments as they bit their lip in thought. Marie tried really hard to look away as they did it. Such sharp teeth… But then, Shiver seemed to perk up, meeting her eyes before they nodded. “That works. Nice one, Marie.”
They said this with an easy smile, and Marie gripped the couch below her, digging her nails into it as she forced herself to give a smile in return– which probably looked more like a grimace, if she was being honest. How is everything they do so charming?'
Marie struggles to come to terms with her feelings for Shiver.

Summary
There is just something so charming and special about having a jam session with someone you don’t know. The only thing the two girls shared between each other was their obvious love for music, and whether they realized it or not, that immediately made them have a bond.

Summary
When the Infection ended without explanation, the Dreamers arose from their slumber, and the land of Hallownest began to drag itself back to life, Hornet knew there would be troubles yet to come. With most resources scarce, many of the surviving bugs left disabled by the disease, and the vast majority of agricultural infrastructure devastated, Hallownest may yet be undone: not by a higher being, but the mortal logistics of hunger. When scouts from Pharloom arrive and attempt to capture a Weaverling, Hornet sees an opportunity to turn what could be another disaster into a chance for Hallownest to recover.
Pharloom is, as always, starved for Silk. When the Grand Mother's wayward daughters are located, under the protection of a Wyrm, forcibly reclaiming them would be dangerous. Fortunately, Hallownest is willing to offer up its Weaver princess for marriage in exchange for supplies that can easily be spared. Accompanied only by her silent knight, such a creature will surely be vulnerable to the manipulations of Pharloom's court.
One third political drama, one third weird sword lesbian situationship, one third Five Knights At Pharloom's Is At The Organ And Going To The Play Me.
