Summary
"Twenty years ago, this was all I ever wanted." He says, struggling to keep his voice steady.
Mary turns away from him to face the window again.
"'If I didn't have music, I'd die.'" She says, firmly.(or— franklin shepard, inc. figures it out.)

Summary
“My work is here.”
“Here?” Mitya’s head is pounding, so he’s not sure if he’s actually hearing him right. “You’re not-”
“The first tenet of my assignment,” Valeriy cuts in, “was your safety. We may have forgotten it over the course of these years, but escorting you back to work was always the secondary task.”
Mitya looks away. The snowstorm is still going.
Valeriy sets down the containers on his table, his motions slow and unpracticed. “If it is my role to protect you from your own mind,” he continues, quietly, “then understand that I will be there.”
“You’re taking on an… impossible task, Sarge.” Mitya’s scarf wraps around himself a little more tightly, as if trying to reassure him. He’s not sure that it’s succeeding. “You shouldn’t. I’ve always been crazy. They knew that too. It’s a small price to pay, to see our world freed from these curses.”
Valeriy does not say anything, but Mitya knows he disagrees.
OR: Mitya, on the topic of research and faith; and Valeriy, who will always be there.
(and in some ways: Orpheus, and Eurydice.)

Summary
Changsheng regards him with his own cool magenta eyes. Baizhu’s always wondered if the difficulty he has lying to her is due to those eyes, or just her uniquely abrasive charm. In the private cocoon of his hands, with only Changsheng to hear, Baizhu says, “To marry is to make a widower of Gui.”
Snakes can’t roll their eyes. But Changsheng has had centuries to work on an alternative; she rolls her head in an arc with a small flick of her tongue at the finish. “Needlessly dramatic.”
Baizhu gets engaged, a head cold, and a blowjob. More or less all at once.

Summary
He's never been much of a knight, much of anything at all other than a drunk embarrassment to the Targaryen name, but still he reaches for his own sword, pulling it from it's sheath.
Daenys the Dreamer had a father who believed in her. Maybe here, maybe now in Ashford's muddy tournament grounds, surrounded by blood and fog, Daeron could guide his father into finally believing him.
Held tightly in his clammy, trembling palms, only inches away from his father, Daeron lifts his sword.
or; Daeron is granted the mercy of a clearer dream. It doesn't make things easier at Ashford, nor what comes after.
