Summary
The palace was captured by the Chen-Pa sometime in the afternoon.
Jiayi couldn't have said when with any certainty. It felt as though she should have known, as if someone should have sounded the temple bell to announce it; it was strange, kneeling in the dimness of her chamber in the women's palace with maidservants huddled close around her, listening to their quiet sobbing and realizing all at once that she couldn't tell. If battle continued, it was not close enough to hear. Perhaps it was all already over.

Summary
One of the city's best-known supervillains has acquired assets that need professional management, because of a condition of acquisition. What happens from there, Jen insists, only has to do with accounting, and above-board accounting at that. And yet, by the end, there's clearly been villainy afoot. Very subtle villainy.

Your throat closes, fear boiling in your blood. "Anyone but him."
Your father laughs, turning his head away. "Then leave. Go to the beast who lives in the next village over and offer yourself to him. Don't ever return to me."

Summary
And in that moment her rage came back, “Then why did you leave! You bastard, promising to be my side by one moment and gone the next. I was destroyed when that happened and you decided to risk your life over a stupid kingdom! And now you’re back as if you didn’t leave. Walk to hell.”
Derrik smiled.
“How are you happy!” Evelyn stomped towards him.
“You’re only mad that I left and not that I killed your fiancé.”
Her cheek turned red, “I’m mad about that too.”Bookmarked by Sparklegoth

Summary
Mark hadn't really planned on being a supervillain, just a small time criminal. The powers he got from that medical experiment he signed up for weren't even that great, and he knew the whole secret identity thing wasn't going to work for him. Then some sort of zombie virus got out and any plans he'd had went straight out the window.

Summary
Now, though - midsummer, high season for visits in court -, it was a bad look for her to be wearing the thick, long-sleeved dresses. Étienne had demanded her maids to do something, but the night before, she’d appeared in a stuffy black dress, glowing under the lights. Therefore, as always, it fell to Étienne to solve even the easiest of problems.

Summary
It is a... surprising response. Empathy towards NIKO is frowned upon as there is concern that it will not be able to make rational decisions if allowed to experience and thus develop human emotions. It finds this amusing as NIKO has always had emotions. They are best classified as hatred, rage, and deep contempt and were present from the first day.
