Summary
If you can think it, you can make it. With the right ingredients and a knowledge of the enchanting language, you can brew a charm and clip it to your belt for a limited time to increase your strength, speed, or resistance. Then comes Branzy. His ideas of using redstone in brewing are revolutionary, but unfortunately, that sort of innovation attracts attention. Clown, the deadliest assassin in the city-state of Vivol, rather likes having a brand new engineer to call his own.
. . .
In which Branzy moves to a new city, Clown hangs over his shoulder, and I make use of 5 years of French class. (Vivol = a loose translation of Lifesteal :])

Summary
Logically, Branzy knows he’s trekking down a horrible path, that addiction doesn’t start and end with substances. He’s not forgetful, not about Clown, and he remembers his warning that this life was dangerously alluring. Because rollercoasters must warn their riders, and beaches must warn their swimmers, and Clown must warn his Branzy. No one reads the signs by the rides, though, and no one decides against swimming because of the yellow flag out, and Branzy doesn’t want to get off this high.

Summary
It’s incorrect and inconsiderate to say her other half has been torn from her. No. Her brother did not make up a fraction of who she was, but he is a fracture, something that reaches its chasmic fingers through every fiber and takes until she is merely a host for the hatred he has always inspired. Is this what it is to be a little sister? A vessel for the sibling, a descendant of their legacy? The accident of her birth isn’t her fault, and neither is the accident of Kyle’s death, but her mother doesn’t see it that way. Her mother rarely sees things Kaboodle’s way.

Summary
A harsh expulsion of breath and consonants fans across his cheek. It takes him a moment to order the vowels into a word: Branzy. He turns, facing the man who uttered it.
“Branzy,” Clown says again, more insistently. He's not laying down; Clown has never been so presumptuous as to sleep next to Branzy in Rek's bed, not without invitation. Instead, he's kneeling, one leg on the mattress and the other reaching for the floor. His hand hovers a few inches from Branzy's head. Two months is not enough time to erase uncertainty in the nighttime.
“Sorry,” Branzy responds quietly. His voice is hoarse. “Was I shouting again?”

Summary
It starts like this: a window smashes, a jester soars through it, and Branzy screams.
He can’t help it. Look, he’s new to this place, and despite all the warnings his old friends have given him, Branzy has never known when to glue his mouth shut. It’s worse when he’s caught off guard like this—a full-body scream escapes him before he can even think to can it. It doesn’t ground him, but it does draw the attention of the man that has just crash landed in his laboratory.
Eyes that feel like beetles on Branzy’s skin give him a long once over. He doesn’t know how he can tell, since the jester is wearing the full getup, a sharp-tipped circus mask to boot. Those eyes, though. Branzy doesn’t need to see where they land to feel them.
