Summary
“I’m sorry,” Sumire says, covering a sniffle with the back of her glove. “This is so embarrassing…”
“Do you—” Futaba starts to offer, but her voice fails.
Sumire’s still looking at her expectantly.
Futaba awkwardly waggles her hand in the scant space between them. “Would it help if you… held my hand?”
For Futaba, returning to the true reality is a daunting prospect — she and Sumire have that in common. It's hard to drag her out of the tar pit when they're both sinking in it.

Summary
“Miss Fey,” Franziska interrupts. “I can spare five minutes to hear whatever it is you are obviously so eager to tell me.”
“Ah, heh. Well, when you put it like that—” she totters over to Franziska’s desk and slams two objects down on top of it. One is a sealed envelope. The other—
The other has her brain rearing back, like a horse refusing a jump. It’s a teddy bear: pale blue, with a frilly white ribbon tied around its neck.
Some time after the events at Hazakura Temple, Maya delivers to Franziska a letter sealed with a heart-shaped sticker. Franziska handles this the same way she handles everything life throws at her: with class, poise, and careful emotional distance.

Summary
Jester asks, “Have you ever kissed a boy, Beau?”
Taken aback, Beau scoffs. “Yeah,” she says. “Once. Never again.” She turns to Jester, and instantly sobers when she notices the look on her face. “Have you?”
“Tell me about it,” Jester requests, with enough solemnity to give Beau the distinct impression that this is the real reason she wanted to talk. “Please?”
Aboard the Squalleater, Jester tries to untangle her feelings about Fjord. Beau helps.

Summary
Yoshizawa fires off a volley of bless attacks. The magic loses its form and splinters away, leaving Kurusu with little more than a tear in her tailcoat.
“Good,” Kurusu praises, and fires a bullet that clips Yoshizawa in the calf. “But you can’t assume your attacks will knock your assailant off-balance. Don’t let yourself get overconfident.”
Hidden in the shadows, Akechi rolls her eyes. That’s pretty fucking rich, coming from her.
Akechi is still owed a rematch. Kurusu, despite accepting her glove, has found a new and frivolous way to waste her time.

Summary
“Gideon,” Paul says, “will you come with us?”
Before she can respond, Harrow says sharply, “Gideon’s dead.”
“Oh, yeah, I’m super dead. No need to let that stand in the way of our tearful reunion,” Gideon sneers. “Jackass.”
Nona is returned to the tomb before Alecto can awaken. Harrow's soul returns to its rightful home; and, for the first time since Canaan House, she and Gideon have a chance to talk.

Summary
Aventurine is well aware of where his value lies - the two parts of him that have any worth. His luck, and his body.

Summary
Aventurine’s eyes widen at the sight of him, then narrow. “Of course it’s you,” he snaps. “Is this supposed to be some kind of punishment for that gash in the sky? Trap me in a bubble and watch me go insane?”
Sunday folds his arms behind his back. “It is supposed to be a paradise,” he says. “Your consciousness should be folded into it. And yet you seem to have retained your original memories. I take it you aren’t responsible for that?”
“Paradise, huh,” Aventurine says, his lip curled in a grimace. “I’ve been in here for three days, and every moment of them made me feel like I was either being toyed with or just losing my fucking mind.”
(Aventurine's awake in paradise. Sunday gets a little obsessed. It doesn't go well for Aventurine. It doesn't go well for Sunday, either.)

Summary
He’d like to meet a Pepeshi someday, though, to see an even starker example of how different the rest of the universe can be from Sigonia. What must their home planet be like, with an infrastructure catered to the height of a child? Or planets like Thalassa, covered in endless water--the technological wonders of Planet Screwllum--the memoria-drenched dreamland of…
Of…
Ah, but he’s too curious for his own good. Sigonia has everything he needs, and plenty of its own fascinations, besides.
(Aventurine was still on Penacony when the Order's paradise unfolded, but he keeps having moments of lucidity. Paradise isn't as nice when you know it isn't real.)

Summary
Sunday shrugs. “I have little to my name,” he says. “Ask of me what you will.”
Aventurine taps his fingers against the glass. “Okay,” he says. “How about this. Play a game with me.”
(For reasons of her own, Jade got Sunday released into her employ. He runs into Aventurine at an IPC gala, and as a way to at least partially make up for past actions, Sunday agrees to a game of blackjack with questions as the ante, assuming he'll lose every round. It turns out Aventurine's company isn't unpleasant.)

Summary
"You want me to hurt you because nobody else will, and it'll fulfill two of your needs at once," Akechi cuts him off, matter-of-fact. "Two contradictory needs."
Akira swallows thickly. He simply nods.
The boy who killed him—in his own mind, in a parallel universe, in a world Yaldabaoth wrung red and drowned in his ichor—takes a step back. He says, "I don't think I will ever understand you, Akira," in a low voice, and then he plunges his serrated blade into Akira's thigh.
(Akira is starved for touch, touch of any kind. Some forms of human contact are easier to ask for than others.)
