Summary
John knew that, by now, he really, really should have developed a better way to communicate direction to Arthur.
‘Left’ and ‘right’ clearly did nothing. Perhaps he should have started saying the exact opposite of where they needed to go, since that was what Arthur always did. Might be best to cut it off at the head.
John swore that he would design a better solution for them… eventually.
Being on the run from gods and monsters for months gave him much more pressing and deadly issues to think about during the long (yet still too short) nights of rest. And now that they were somewhat stagnant, living in Noel's apartment and learning how to settle, the issue didn't seem pressing. Not when Noel had the advantage of a full body, and could lay a gentle hand on Arthur's shoulder to guide him through the city.
There was very little opportunity to remember the plan, almost no need to actually set it in motion to begin with. So John kept pushing it back. It just wasn't a problem.
Until it was.

Kepler said, with a short, confident laugh, "I don't know if you've forgotten in your brand new virus-founded idiocracy, but Dr. Maxwell and I put together are pretty damn smart. Pretty damn smart. I'm sure we can handle one job without you."

Summary
“That’s all demons do.” The way Jinu had looked at her had been lacerating. Furious with her for not understanding the truth, and furious with himself that it was the truth at all. “Feel.”
At the time, Rumi had scoffed, and dismissed the idea as just a demon's attempt to give himself a justification to be what he was. Demons were evil, pure and simple, with nothing more to it. But now, since the Honmoon was sealed, since all other demons were banished, and since Jinu sacrificed himself, she’s forced to shoulder that there isn’t a single other being left on the planet who understands what it means to feel so deeply that the world frays around you.
But Mira and Zoey are trying. God knows they’re trying.

"What's John saying?"
Tell him I'm asking what's wrong with you!
"I don't…" Arthur screws his eyes shut and John groans in irritation. It's cut off when Arthur finishes with, "Who?"

Summary
“You gave this up.” Arthur’s tone has a gravity to it, as though he’s not stating a fact they both know well.
“Yes.” John matches his demeanor.
“You gave this up for me.” John gave up many things for many reasons, and most of those can be traced back to Arthur Lester. There’s no reason to lie. They both know it’s true.

Summary
Arthur’s heart flutters unevenly, arrhythmic. Vague sparking signals cannot make it past the broken connection of his severed spine. There is warmth in his core, still, but it is fading rapidly in the frigid air. The Dark World compels him to live, yes—but it does nothing more.
And like that, enveloped wholly in his blood and sinew once again, it occurs to him:
Maybe he can do something about this.
If he wants his friend back, he needs to do something about this.
He stretches his awareness outward once again, and begins to knit.
After dying at Kayne's hands, John and Arthur find themselves in the Dark World. Possessed of two separate bodies, though... perhaps not quite as separate, or as whole, as they were hoping.
Nothing's ever easy, is it?
