    Summary

    Angel has always been ready to die. He’s been prepared to die for a while, not in an actively suicidal way but an “eh, if it happens it happens” sort of way. Existence is exhausting and Angel loathes the feeling of exhaustion. If death chose to take him at any moment he wouldn’t really care because then he at least wouldn’t be tired.

    Angel has always been ready to die so he doesn’t know why he suddenly finds that there’s a small piece of himself desperate to stay alive.

    Summary

    Mr. Mo’s expression did nothing to help his case. He looked extremely stressed whenever Zizhen started questioning his upbringing, and he often flubbed his answers. “Maybe I was homeschooled,” he posited.

    “Were you?” Zizhen pressed.

    “... I don’t know.”

    “You don’t know?! You can’t remember if you went to elementary school or stayed home?”

    “My memory is bad!” Mr. Mo insisted.

    “You have an eidetic memory!”

    Mr. Mo scratched his nose shyly. “Eidetic… photographic… something like that.”

    “So then what did your classroom look like?!” Zizhen asked.

    Mr. Mo smacked the whiteboard with his expo marker, forcing the students to refocus on the notes he had written. “Hydrogen bonding,” he said pointedly. “A dipole-dipole attraction. If you’re not about to tell me which three elements hydrogen can bond to in this manner, then your hand should not be raised.”

    Summary

    In Ios, weeks after the Regent's fall, a weary Counselor Herode stumbles upon a recently crowned Laurent for an illuminating exchange.

    "A feeling began to come over Herode, something akin to dread, as he asked. "Are the flowers for the King of Akeilos?"

    "Yes." Laurent said without inflection, after a slight hesitation. "I- last night the King and I were having a discussion and I said some things that were... less than diplomatic. It's important at this stage, for both our countries, that Damen and I be as cohesive as possible and project stability. We can't afford distractions, and I want to smooth this matter over as quickly as possible."

    "I see." Herode said. "So you, the King, have come yourself, after dark, to collect a bouquet of flowers with hidden meanings... all for the sake of international relations?"

    Summary

    "Setting aside the obvious," Laurent says, "I feel I should point out that the last time we met, you told me I was beautiful, and then couldn't think of a single other good quality I possessed."

    The corner of Damen's mouth twitches. He looks dangerous, and bright, and appalling.

    "I can think of a few things now," he says.
