Summary
”Bill could tell that Specs’ relationship with the Axolotl wasn’t exactly like his own deal with Sixer. That meant he didn’t exactly know the best way to deal with it, but he figured killing the hick was his best bet. Worst case scenario, it would be a fun way to get out some stress! Sure, Ford wouldn’t be happy about his precious assistant kicking the bucket, but he did some of his best work when he was unhappy. What better way to distract himself from dumb human things like grief than doing the one thing he was actually good for?”

Summary
One of the last skills you learn in dive training, and the one that likely sticks in your head the most is what to do if your buddy runs out of air. Even in the controlled environment of the training pool, the moment that the gauge hits zero is briefly terrifying. It’s surprisingly easy to forget that is humans are not supposed to be under water. And then your air supply cuts off, and you are reminded of the fact that you are desperately out of your depth in every conceivable way.
Or, Stan and Ford go diving together!

Summary
“He checks that Ford is still focused on Fiddleford— he is, completely and utterly— before he carefully rolls up one sleeve of his jacket to check the bite. There’s two messy holes in his arm, bleeding sluggishly. The skin around the wounds is flushed red.
Stan may be the idiot of the group, but even he knows this is bad news. Spiders are usually poisonous, right? Does that apply to alien spiders that are huge? Probably.
The small part of his brain that still cares about logic and being alive says he should tell the Fords immediately, before things get worse. The louder, larger part of his brain stomps it down and kicks its corpse for good measure.”

Summary

‘The- my predecessor. You knew them, didn’t you?’”

Summary
“Darius seems to be trying to keep his face in that neutral expression of smug disdain, but his jaw is set stiff and he has trouble keeping his eyes off the boy by his side. His pants are dirtied at the knees down to his boots, but he’s not rushing to get cleaned and changed. He’s still holding Hunter’s hand tightly, and neither seems to have any desire to pull away. Even Eberwolf stations themself on Hunter’s other side, sniffing around in search of any hidden injuries.
It makes Raine’s heart ache a bit, seeing their usually aloof partners so obviously protective of the kid. “

Summary
“You… you know what I did. Even you- you encouraged me to rebel before but not- even you have to have your limits!” Hunter yells, hands balling into even tighter fists. The way his voice pitches up when he’s angry makes Darius want to laugh and cry in equal measure- he’s so young. “I told everyone about the Day of Unity! I’m helping them stop it! I’m a traitor, don’t you understand that!? I’m a traitor… and Belos will kill me when he finds me.”

Summary
"He doesn’t understand the words, but he kind of likes watching them, even as the indescribable ache of being something decidedly other builds in his chest. It’s always been there, but he assumed it was because he was so much younger than his colleagues. Maybe it was the part of him that knew he was an undead puppet of the Emperor all along. "
