    Summary

    For only a second, and maybe she imagined it, Carol thought she saw a glimmer of the most human expression Zosia had worn yet: annoyance.

    “And you’ll still be working on reversing this?” Zosia asked.

    “We wouldn’t be very good heroes if we didn’t, now would we?”

    or: Carol and Manousos have found a way to (maybe) undo the apocalypse. They need a willing(?) participant to help their cause.

    Summary

    The exhaustion he felt didn’t phase him like it did in Jakarta. Even when his limbs were lagging behind, it didn’t stop him from spending half the concert admiring Yuma. Eyes darting between the crowd and the older, drinking in every fleeting touch and endearing ment and flicker of something between them that Taki could almost call nothing. Almost.

    Normally, he was better at hiding it. Shoving it down, ignoring it.

    But when the fresh, bright red of Harua’s hair drifts past his vision, and he watches the way Nicholas plays around with the younger, teasing and poking and prodding until Harua is flushed and pouting, Taki knows he should do something. Needs to do something.

    Summary

    Two years after the Unjoining, she saw Zosia in London, of all places – nearly unrecognizable in her winter attire – bundled up to her nose. But Carol felt her presence like a sawed-off shotgun wound to her stomach. The sight of her eyes peeking over the edge of her scarf, sparkling with mirth as she shouldered the woman she was walking with –

    Well, it was fucking devastating.


    ‘Who is Carol?’ Spray-painted in canary yellow, stood out against the rain-darkened concrete of the building across the street from The Ritz where Carol was staying.

    Summary

    Carol misses those nights when she took silence and sleep for granted. It’s been two weeks since they have stopped, and the repercussions are starting to show in the sluggish way she moves about in the morning. In the headaches that remind her of the worst kind of hangover. And in the irritation she feels at the slightest inconvenience, or even at her lack of inspiration when she sits in front of a blank document on her computer.
    Well, maybe that last part isn’t entirely someone else’s fault. But still, she should do something about the fucking noise.
    [...]
    “Well, then? Do you need something?”
    Carol takes a deep breath. For the first time since moving in this awfully sleazy apartment complex, she’s about to be the wet blanket everybody hates – or maybe appreciates for the intervention, she hopes.
    “Yeah,” she mutters and points to the door. “Could you turn it down? I – I’m trying to get some sleep.”
    The other seems to ponder her request for a second before shrugging. “It’s not that loud.”

    or

    a new tenant moves in the upstairs apartment. She's loud, careless, annoying. And hot. And Carol has a hard time dealing with that.
