Summary
All his interest sharpens on the tea shop around him. Not a minute later, Wriothesley’s grabbed a shopping basket and filled it with five different tins. He stares at his new collection, a little baffled by his behavior, and then catches another new scent. Vanilla and almond. Without thought, he crosses the shop to find the tea in question, mindlessly putting it in his basket along with the others.
More. He needs more. There have to be more teas here he hasn’t had before, and he finds them with a single-minded intensity.
Getting used to being a dragon is complicated, especially when Wriothesley's new instincts get a little out of control about tea in particular.

Summary
They lay together on the couch, the house strangely quiet. Wriothesley watches his thumb moving back and forth over Neuvillette’s body. Remembers the way his hands disappeared in the bathwater. He wants to think it was just a weird trick of the light, but Wriothesley isn’t in the habit of lying to himself.
Maybe there’s something wrong with him. Maybe Neuvillette’s gift of humanity is unraveling somehow. That’s terrifying. It would mean humanity was conditional or limited by time. Or that something can undo that gift. Something? Maybe someone.
When Wriothesley begins experiencing strange changes, he and Neuvillette must investigate the cause or risk losing each other forever.

Summary
Neuvillette knows little of what it means to be a dragon; he has spent his entire life among the people of Fontaine. Everything he does know about dragons, he has uncovered himself through trial and error and the occasional bit of obscure research. But this, at least, he recognizes.
Mating instincts.
By protecting him, the duke is behaving like a dragon seeking a mate, and that has triggered Neuvillette’s own instincts to judge the duke’s adequacy.
When Wriothesley begins acting like a dragon courting his mate, Neuvillette finds himself torn between duty and desire.

Summary
Kaveh used to think that Alhaitham had mastered the art of ignoring him. The man would remain unflappable as he continued to read his worn copy of The Origins of Enkanomiyan Language, even when Kaveh was a hair’s breadth away from shattering the windows of their house with his severity of pitch.
No amount of screaming, threats to throw things, or violently waving in front of him could get Alhaitham to pause in his thirst for knowledge. As it turns out, Alhaitham literally just turns his hearing aids off so he doesn’t have to listen to Kaveh.
It’s for this exact reason that Kaveh has decided to learn Sumerian Sign Language.
or,
Kaveh learns sign language just to continue bickering with Alhaitham.

Summary
“You,” he states, and swallows. “You can… you can become him, right? You could… you could be Mydei. Just so I can practice. I’ll get it out, the whole thing, and you can, I don’t know, tell me if I sound like half the idiot that I feel like? Maybe?”
Cipher watches him for a long moment. The alleyway is very quiet, an owl hooting somewhere overhead. “You want me,” she repeats slowly, “to become the man you love… so you can confess to me.”
(cipher does not, in fact, transform into mydei. she just goes and gets the real one.)
