    Summary

    Cody picked up the voice comm with bad grace. It wasn’t his standard-issue device. “Hello, dear,” he said, sounding exasperated.

    Rex blinked, because Cody was speaking Mando’a, which meant Wooley had done a double take but Anakin hadn’t even looked up from the holoscreen.

    Obi-Wan goes undercover. Cody takes some calls. These two facts are absolutely not related.

    Summary

    “I’ve covered every inch of the Underworld by now,” Zagreus says. “So, if there’s someone you’re looking for, I can probably help.”

    Cody smiles at him again—an awful, pained smile that cuts like the wings of a soul catcher’s butterflies—and says, “Thanks. But if I haven’t found him yet, it’s because he doesn’t want to be found.”

    Or: Zagreus finds another lost soul in Elysium, and he does what he does best.

    Summary

    And then it hits Uther, like a fork of lightning: "Fine, then, no Merlin for a week."

    "Oh, no," one of the knights, Sir Leon, gasps.

    Arthur, whose jaw has been hanging open this entire time, finally regains his abilities of speech. "What?" he says. "No Merlin?"

    +++

    As punishment for Arthur's disobedience, Uther bans all contact with his manservant for a week.

    It works out about as well as you could expect.

    Summary

    Zuko had never excelled at anything. Azula was a prodigy. Uncle always knew what to say. And Father... Father was strong, iron-like. But Zuko had only ever been good at surviving. Putting one foot in front of the other in a grim show of stubborn determination, gritting his teeth and bearing it. Survival was all he had ever been taught. He knew how to do it. So when he was kidnapped by the Southern Water Tribe, he expected to fight as he always had. He didn’t expect to be taught instead how to live.

    In a warring land, the Water Tribe forgave the enemy in an act of defiance. For this, he was torn from them, and this time, his wounds won't heal so easily.

    Forced back into nothing but survival, the last person Zuko expected to see was Hakoda's son. Hakoda was a promise of safety. The relentless blue of Sokka’s eyes was a promise of happiness. Zuko could have both if he just reached out his hands, but he found them clutching into fists. After all, he’d been burned one too many times.

    But hey, at least between Hakoda and Sokka, Zuko could appreciate the family resemblance of pure, asinine stubbornness.
