    Summary

    "No animal could ever be as cruel as a man." — Fyodor Dostoevsky

    Il Dottore called her a name that was not her name. He said it the way a naturalist labels a specimen—with curiosity, with patience, with no particular malice toward the thing being taken apart.

    Collei is twelve years old. She knows how to go somewhere else in her head while her body stays behind. She knows that food given freely has always cost something. She does not know what safe feels like.

    But General Cyno, and Tighnari are ready to show her.

    Summary

    When a mission goes sideways, General Mahamatra Cyno walks away with cracked ribs, an arrow wound, and the quiet, stubborn conviction that none of it is worth mentioning. For six days he writes careful letters, cancels dinners, and manages, until one certain scribe finds him on the floor of his own office and the choice is made for him.

     

    Or,

    A story about the habit of being fine, the people who see through it anyway, and learning that needing things doesn't make you smaller.

    Summary

    When she's fully grown and looking back on her life, Collei will thank Alhaitham for helping her heal by simply being himself. Alhaitham, who had never even considered not being himself as an option, will offer back a very confused "you're welcome" and one of the candied nuts he usually carried for god.

    or,

    A series of meetings between the Forest Ranger's Kit and the Lunatic of the Akademiya.

    Summary

    For all the rumors he'd overheard, Tighnari had expected Alhaitham to be cold and unfeeling. "Cuddly" wasn't even a possibility in his mind.

    Then again, there's no denying the appeal of soft fur.
