    Summary

    Sophie was initially suspicious of Clive. He seemed like an easy mark, but that could all be an act. For one thing, he was friends with Asano. Anyone who could tolerate that manipulative liar for an extended period of time had to have something in common with the guy. For another, she had never once caught him checking her out. Everyone she had ever met got hung up on the way she looked. It wasn’t something she enjoyed, but she had come to expect it. Even Jory, who was so in love with Belinda it made her want to gag, had an occasional case of wandering eyes. The fact that she had never seen even a hint of that from the nerd raised a few alarm bells. And, most unsettling of all, he was taking up all Belinda’s time.

    Summary

    Clive was starting to come to terms with the idea that he might be in love with Jason.  It wasn’t so different from his previous feelings, honestly.  The devotion and commitment remained the same.  They still worked together, lived together, and studied together.  He did spend a lot more time distracted by the idea of kissing him, but it was only a drop of water in the ocean of ways Jason already distracted him.

    Summary

    “What? We aren’t getting married. Why would you think that?”

    “Last time you were visiting, Nana asked when you were getting married, and mum said it would be when your research tablet came to life and formed strong opinions on the quality of paper. And here he is!”

    Clive asks Jason for help with upgrading his family’s anti-monster security system. They jump to several conclusions, and react accordingly.

    Summary

    That was too much. These were the final warning signs. He needed to get out. He forced his hands over his ears, digging his fingers into the soft flesh hard enough to reassure him they weren’t moving. In the same motion, he jumped out of his seat, stumbling over Belinda as he ran to the storage room at the end of the bus. He managed to find a quiet corner wedged between two large crates. It was dark, and cool, and the only sound he could hear was that of his own muttering. “Wait for Jason. Wait for Jason. Wait for Jason.”

    Summary

    Everyone was watching him, and it made him cry even harder. He was angry at himself. They were staring because he was crying. If he stopped crying, they would stop staring. He knew that. He wanted them to stop staring. But he couldn’t ever make his body do what it was supposed to. He tried his best to avoid getting snot on his shirt. He was pretty sure it was his only shirt, now. He didn’t want it to be all snotty.

    Summary

    “In the end, Humphrey and Jason don’t matter,” she said. “This is about you. Be who you are. Make sure you’re chasing what you want, and not what you think you should want. That will only hurt everyone, yourself most of all.”

    Belinda staggered off into the darkness in the vague direction of the town, her familiar bobbing after her.

    “What if I’m already hurt?” Sophie whispered into the dark.

    Belinda always had a way of cutting to the heart of the matter. That was the whole problem, wasn’t it? She’d spent too long wanting one thing, while trying to convince herself she wanted something else, and now the person she actually loved was already taken and her only two options were both ones she wasn’t interested in.

    Summary

    He’d already tried flirty banter, presents, and even taking the man on dates. Clive had either not noticed, or was pretending not to notice to avoid an awkward conversation. Jason had resolved to leave it alone until he could talk to Rufus. The entirety of his experience hitting on men was the one time Erika had dragged him out to a gay bar the night he came out to her. There was a huge difference between propositioning a guy wearing a rainbow mesh shirt in a club people went to specifically to be propositioned, and asking out someone he saw on a daily basis, whose sexual preferences he didn’t even know, who he wanted an actual relationship with. He needed advice on the best way to proceed before he ruined another friendship and made things uncomfortable for everyone.

    Summary

    “Clive! Hey, what are you doing here?” Jason’s tone was jovial, in stark contrast to his entire demeanor.
    “I just finished speaking with Rufus, and thought I would see if you wanted to go get that drink. It looks like you may have had a head start, though,”

    Clive checks on Jason to see how he's coping with being dumped. He's...not doing well.

    Summary

    “I wanted to make sure the clinics were being run ethically. And clearly I was right to worry. Gods, every time I think I’m being too hard on America, I find shit like this. Why, for the love of handguns and hamburgers, would they squander magical healing on things we already have perfectly good medical solutions for? Why not just give people fucking medicine?”

    “That’s not fair,” she said, sardonically. “How would insurance executives be able to afford their yachts if they let poor people have healthcare? What’s more important? A private jet, or a few thousand lives?”

    “Gods, this is infuriating. You know how we would handle things like this back on my other world?”

    “You mean back on the murder planet where people murder each other all the time whenever they can and get away with it because murder is considered an acceptable means of solving problems? No, Jason, I have no idea. How would you handle things like this on Murder World?”

    Summary

    Jason’s party interface was turning out to be an incredibly useful tool in the bedroom. Knowing there was no chance of being overheard by anyone except the intended audience made it easier to stumble through the first few awkward attempts at dirty talk.
    This is just a little something I wrote on the premise that Jason and Clive actually got together after their big moment in book 8 where Clive got his soul scar.

    Summary

    “I DID NOT ACCIDENTALLY KILL A BABY!”
    “You did say that not admitting it was the entire point,” Jason observed.
    “Yeah, he definitely killed that baby,” Neil said.
    “I did not kill a baby!”
    “It’s a helpless little baby, bro. I know it was supposedly an accident, but how could you?”
    “Of course he had to say it was an accident,” Gary pointed out. “Plus, it’s his word against that of a dead baby, so that’s probably how he got away with it.”

     

    Finally, we have the answer to the most compelling question of the series: "How did Humphrey accidentally kill a baby?"

    Summary

    People on the street were politely moving out of his way, and he found himself starting to hunch over ever so slightly before catching himself. It was a delicate balance between carrying himself with confidence and purposefully intimidating people; appearing non-threatening and appearing weak or dodgy. The last thing he needed then was for someone to decide he looked suspicious enough to warrant calling the police. He had only escaped his old life a few months ago, with Hiro Asano as his new employer, and getting into trouble with the cops would only serve to complicate things more than he could deal with.

    Summary

    Contrary to popular belief, Clive did have an interest in intimacy. He just always figured he would wait until gold rank, when the process was an exchange of energies, rather than one of viscous fluids. He had tried it the usual way, just enough times to come to the conclusion that if he enjoyed handling slimy objects, he would never have bothered leaving the farm. He barely even tolerated his own secretions, treating them as the unfortunate side effect of a useful method for getting to sleep. But as he looked at the walls filled with definitive proof that he wasn’t alone in his passion, he was struck by the desire to throw the man responsible up against them and repeat every failed sexual experiment he had ever attempted until they finally yielded a favorable result.

    Summary

    Clive was someone who knew who he was, for good and for ill. He knew what he liked, what his skills were, and where he excelled. He was someone who craved efficiency of action. He was most useful in his research lab, working towards advancements in astral magic. The next best use of his time was taking care of his administrative duties as assistant to the deputy director, a position mainly created because both people in charge of actually overseeing the day-to-day management of the branch preferred to spend their time on… *other* activities. They were not people who craved efficiency of action.

    By far, the least productive thing Clive could do was travel out to the delta and spend multiple days hunting down mangrove snatchers. That was something any adventurer could manage. They were slow, unintelligent, and not particularly dangerous to someone with essences. Clive *hated* using his time unproductively.

    Summary

    She liked Taika. He had an easygoing charm that seemed at odds with his imposing figure. She was also a fan of the imposing figure, if she was being honest. She could think of worse ways to spend an afternoon than repeatedly throwing him to the ground and climbing on top of him. Between the months in Greenstone, and the weeks of torture, it had been a while since she’d gotten any action. She knew she wasn’t being remotely subtle, but subtlety was for people who didn’t have volcano powers.

    Summary

    She didn’t seem at all angry anymore, but was still holding the collar of Clive’s robes, albeit in a much looser grip. He looked down at her hand and debated whether he should ask her to let go. On the one hand, looming over her like this made him feel like a delta heron snagged on a fishing net.  On the other hand, he didn’t exactly mind the proximity. Now that she wasn’t shouting at him, anyways.

    Her eyes followed his, and she did not let go, but her expression shifted as she adjusted her hold on him.  Her hand slid upwards to the side of his neck, and her fingertips began playing with the ends of his hair.

    “You know,” she said, “you’re the first iron ranker around here I’ve met who would stand up to a Bronze like that.”

    Summary

    Clive had spent much of his life completely focused on academic pursuits, to the exclusion of all else. Now, he was applying that same tenacity towards sex. This wasn’t the first time he had thought up a new fantasy and immediately dragged Jason upstairs to try it out.
