    Summary

    Sylvain reaches over from his cot to clumsily pat Felix on the arm. “Well anyway, don’t worry about it. If you’re looking for somebody interested, I don’t think you’ll have any trouble finding them. Anybody would wanna deflower you.”

    Felix doesn’t mean to say it, is the thing. He means to tell Sylvain to fuck off, colorfully, for his use of the word “deflower.” He means to tell him that he’s not worried, shut up. He means, more than anything else, to get them to drop this subject and never pick it back up again.

    Instead, for some fucking reason, he opens his mouth and asks: “Would you?”

    -

    Felix and Sylvain and the terrible, horrible, no good, very cringe attempt at being friends with benefits.

    Summary

    It’s a miracle he’s even alive, he realizes now—has realized a few days ago, as Sendou explained how he’d sewn him back up on the little pirogue their crew had apparently cut free for Sendou to board and steer Oliver to safer waters. I rowed for what seemed like days, he’d told Oliver a couple nights ago during a dinner similar to this one; and then, when I was losing hope, some fishermen passed by and led me ashore.
    You shouldn’t have saved me, Oliver had thought then, remembered that flash of sunrise pink blurring the last of his vision as he sank beneath the waves. You shouldn’t have jumped after me.

    Captain Oliver Aiku falls overboard during battle. His crew's navigator, Sendou Shuuto, saves him.

    Then, lightning; then, water.

    He never expected his death to be so pleasantly dramatic.

    Summary

    “He’s dead. It’s not like he can get killed again. We’ll just pull over and scoop him back up,” Sylvain answers with an actual grin on his face. Ingrid refrains from slapping it right off but she does respond with a furrowed glare.

    “Okay, fine.” He digs into the backseat for a roll of duct tape and proceeds to wrap numerous rings around the width of the casket. “If he takes a tumble, he can’t fall out.”

    Dimitri is dead. His friends take his body home to Fhirdiad.

    Summary

    Glenn Fraldarius is anyone's dream kid. He's wrapping up his fourth semester of law school with a four point oh and scholastic honors. He's got a summer associate position lined up at a prestigious firm that will open doors—not to mention clerkships—when it's time for the job hunt. He doesn't have an arrest record, or an expensive cocaine habit. He's a loving brother and a responsible son.

    "No offense," he says, "but you're out of your fucking mind."

     --

    Glenn agrees to watch the house for the summer. It doesn't go quite how he expects.
