    Summary

    “Will you kiss me?”

    An interminable silence passes, during which Baran’s eyebrows twitch imperceptibly and Trinity tells herself to run at least thirty times, and convinces herself to stay at least thirty one.

    Baran frowns. “You’re drunk.”

    She almost laughs at the sheer absurdity. Of course she’s drunk, if she weren't, this conversation never would have happened.

    “I know. Will you kiss me?”

    --------

    The unstoppable force of Baran Al-Hashimi meets the immovable object of Trinity Santos.

    Summary

    “We will be spending a lot of time together.”

    Trinity had to contain her exhilaration to a minimum that she hoped she didn’t sound utterly disinterested to the enterprise of her new position: “That is fine by me.”

    Al-Hashimi let out a satisfied hum.

    Or,

    Summary

    Al-Hashimi laughed again, almost mockingly. The mean lilt of it was so far removed from the emotionless, hyper-professional image Santos had built of Al-Hashimi in her mind that it stunned her into silence.

    "I'm afraid you may have misplaced your faith," Al-Hashimi bit back.

    In a rundown diner at five o'clock in the morning on July 5th, Santos loses one hero and finds another.
