    Summary

    "I do have a suggestion," John said, coming to take a seat beside her. She sat up and squared her shoulders. When John wanted to sit beside her, it usually meant the conversation coming next would leave her agitated and tired. "I think you need to produce an heir of your own."

    Kiriona stared. Seconds of silence passed by with only her wide eyes and John's impassive glance. Finally, she burst into raucous laughter, going so far as to slap her knee.

    or

    Gideon Nav's 57th escape attempt works, but she stumbles right into God. Divinity kind of sucks. At least John lets her pick her own wife.

    Harrowhark doesn't get a choice.

    Summary

    When Harrowhark Nonagesimus arrives at Prefect Seminar, the exclusive class she’s spent three years working towards, she expects serious study and prestigious academic bliss.

    What she finds instead is a crop of bright red hair and a wide, lopsided smile. In short, her year is ruined.

    But hey, at least one of her tumblr mutuals has turned out to be pretty good at sexting.

    Summary

    A letter from Nona to Harrow, sharing some important questions and information that she'll need before she returns to her body.

    The first thing you should know is that I’m not writing this letter myself. I’m telling it to Palamedes and he’s writing it down. He says that’s called dictating. The first time he said that word, Pyrrha overheard and said, ‘Dick Tate? I hardly know him!’ and then Palamedes said ‘stop interrupting, and we don’t know anyone named Tate.’ Palamedes says I’m getting off topic again. Anyway, Palamedes is writing for me because I can’t. I don’t understand why that’s so important, but Palamedes says not disclosing that information is a serious breach of academic integrity. I don’t know what that means, but apparently you will, and you’ll think it’s important.
