Summary
There are several reasons why Essek prefers trancing over sleeping. Firstly, as difficult as it may be to leave yourself vulnerable for eight hours at a time, he finds it even more challenging to imagine his friends defenceless.
Secondly, sleep, inevitably, will give birth to dreams. And no matter if they are foul or fair, they torture him all the same.
And lastly, well—.Essek reminisces about the strange habit of sleeping and his even stranger habit of sharing his bed with Caleb whenever he can't sleep.

Summary
Why, you will ask yourself, does your professor leave his book on his desk during his lessons? Why then, does he keep it open, why does he invite you to look at it, why is he so careless? Doesn't he know that only the wizard who works alone will succeed? Doesn't he know that solitude mitigates risks? Doesn't he know that that's the thing about wizards? Eventually there is only one left.
Professor Widogast, his wizard's spellbook, and the many lessons he learned from his friends.

Summary
A curse that would've made most sailors blush escaped him as he uselessly scraped at the burnt remains of his food. Bad enough that he had ruined dinner, he probably also had ruined the pan. He supposed Prestidigitation might work, but he hoped he would be able to salvage something—
"Mrow," Sir Frumpkin IV objected and headbutted his leg.
He stared down at the pan, back at the cat, then back at the pan, and cast the cantrip with a defeated sigh. "I suppose you're right," he told him. "Although in the future, I would prefer constructive criticism instead of unsolicited complaints."Essek tries to surprise his husband with a homemade dinner when he comes home from work. It goes not as expected. (Or, given that Essek has never before cooked anything in his life, it goes precisely how he should have expected.)
