Summary
"Do you want some company?" Bolaire asks, stopping a few steps away.
Azune stares at him, then blinks sluggishly, shrugs.
"If you wish."
Bolaire does not move.
"This isn't what I asked. Do you want me to stay?"
Azune tenses up, and there's a spark of annoyance in his eyes now, though it is quickly smothered by the usual cool professionalism. They stare at each other, blue pinprick to dusky hues; Azune blinks first. He looks away, hugging his knees against his chest.
"I don't mind if you do."
That's as good as he's going to get. Bolaire closes the distance and sits next to Azune, leaving some space between them. Silence stretches, the strain bleeding into disinterest — then, eventually, into a tenuous sort of camaraderie.
(In the aftermath of the assassination attempt, a chat between mask and masked.)

Summary
The kid looks like he's stopped breathing. He's standing very stiffly, eyes fixed on the wall left of Julien's head.
"I don't need you to kill anyone," he repeats. "I need you to find out why I've been killed."
A silence falls as Julien tries to make sense of the sounds he's just heard. He glances at the empty tumbler in his hand; surely the sip that was left wasn't enough to get him from painfully sober to inebriated enough to hallucinate voices.
He very carefully, very intentionally sets the glass back on the desk, and looks intently at the man in front of him as he says:
"I am sorry, I think I've misheard. Could you say that again?"

Summary
The Falconer's Rebellion begins, as most rebellions do, with a singular mission and a man far too dedicated to fulfilling it. There's nothing unusual about that. We've seen it before.
This time, though, things turn out a little bit differently.
Thjazi Fang says, Nessa, will you come with me?
And the Lady Aranessa Royce says, Yes.
(A pair of lovers flees the Golden Orchard, and changes the trajectory of the future in their wake.)

Summary
“Okay but like,” Tyranny leaned onto the middle console of the car. “Theoretically, if you knew with one hundred percent absolute certainty he wanted you to rail him, and I was fine with it, theoretically, would you?”
Teor stared at her, opened mouthed for longer than he’d like to admit. “I…”
“Because— Hypothetically, this is all hypothetical of course, he could have told me he finds you, like, amazingly sexy.”
Teor felt himself getting hot despite the car’s AC on his face. “Uh.”
“And in this completely imagined and theoretical scenario I would be very down with being involved in that.” She stared at him, horizontal pupils blown. “Hypothetically.”
“Hypothetically,” Teor repeated numbly.
--
Teor is invited to do a very specific kind of third wheeling.

Summary
When the Seekers return to Dol-Makjar, Julien wants to go back to the Palazzo. Thjazi’s whelp offers to tag along for—what? Moral support? Julien honestly has no idea, but he can’t be bothered to tell the lieutenant off.
Or maybe he just really doesn’t want to.

Summary
It would be deeply improper for Lady Royce to see her husband, what with his leading a rebellion against her house and also all of the general crimes. Instead, she sends him her right hand, all pretty and dressed up.

Summary
He's not hard to recognize, after a moment of thought. Men aren't hard to recognize when you've crossed steel with them in the past. It's a pack bond, in its way. Well, one rarely forged, because normally one of the pair winds up bloody and dead.
But if you both survive the encounter, it leaves a little tang of iron on your tongue. A shiver of recognition down your spine. The rule of predators opposing, the hallmark of territorial disputes: You're nothing like me. You're in my space, you're in my way, and you're not like me at all.
And gods in their bloody graveyards, that part sure rings true. There is no one less like Kattigan Vale than Julien fucking Davinos.
Julien is rising. Kattigan is falling. Two weeks before the end of the Falconer's Rebellion, they meet in the middle.
