    Summary

    you do not have to be good,
    you do not have to walk on your knees
    for a hundred miles through the desert repenting.
    you only have to let the soft animal of your body
    love what it loves.

    Alicent Hightower has a broken knee (it's fine) and an attitude problem. Rhaenyra Targaryen is further west than she knows how to be and she needs work, something to help her leave behind all thoughts of a dead father and a rodeo she used to love. Then, she gets hired by an aging rancher named Otto Hightower.

    (Somewhere close to her heart, she knows she loves this child as her own.)

    Summary

    Randvi looks at the smirk on Eivor’s lips, the confidence in the line of her shoulders, and it hits her with all the force of being kicked in the chest.

    She married the wrong one.

    Summary

    Because it turns out the Halo can want things now, sort of. Not the way a human would, with thoughts or motivation or articulable desires. The Halo wants things the way a tree wants water and shoves a taproot through flagstone to get it, which is all well and good for the tree, but less so for the idiot trying to keep her patio intact. Unfortunately for Ava, she’s both the idiot and the taproot. The flagstone is her dignity. The water – for reasons becoming rapidly and unavoidably apparent – is Beatrice.

    or

    the one where the halo imprints on beatrice like a duckling and is dead-set on making it ava’s problem

    Summary

    At the end of the fucking world, Beatrice is beautiful.

    Not in that pseudo-glamorous way vampires always are when they’re the subject of movies and television shows, or the gothic elegance of how they’re described in books, but in a simple, effortless way that makes Ava’s heartbeat feel at home a little too close to the surface of her chest. To Ava, the entire apocalypse is a vivid, vibrant neon, from the city's kaleidoscopic street signs to the complicated collision of elements that spark inside of her body whenever Beatrice runs her tongue over the edge of a fang, or laughs at one of her stupid jokes, or brings her lips to the delicate skin of Ava's wrist and drinks.

    If you want my blood this badly, Beatrice, Ava says with a smirk, you can earn it.
