Summary
Ko likes to collect things. Mostly, though, she collects novelty mugs. Mugs that are heavier than they should be, mugs that contain an ocean, mugs that follow you around the house. If it's strange, if it's weird, if it's sideways from reality, Ko will take it off your hands.
If you still have them, that is.

Summary
We all have those high school stories. The time someone climbed on top of the lockers at lunch break. The time teachers thought you and your friends were gambling, but you were just trying to order pizza. The time it was bucketing down with rain, and you were getting wet anyway so you went fuck it, and ended up walking into the computer lab soaking wet.
The time you had a teacher that can command the attention of any student no matter how unruly, a teacher with scars and a teacher who never ate lunch with the rest of the faculty.

Ko digs another coaster out of her bag and places it on Mr. Sims' desk. He watches it for a moment before looking up at her silently.
“Miss James?”
It’s kind of adorable how confused he looks.

Summary
She points her cane towards his teacher threateningly. “Let me have my fun before your boring old man lecture or I’ll stab you again.”
“Good to see you haven’t changed.” Mr Sims says almost fondly. Melanie bops him on the head with her cane and he yelps. Her grin widens.
“Neither have you, old man.”
“I am not old—” He shakes his head furiously and spreads his hands in a calming gesture. “Now, Melanie is here to—”

Summary
Ko scoots her seat over once she’s submitted her answer and rests her chin on folded arms, looking up at the three of them. “What’cha cheating about?”
“We’re not cheating.” They all say loudly at once. Ko appears highly skeptical.
“If this wasn’t a Kahoot game and therefore ungradable then I would care.” Mr. Sims deadpans.
Duke drops his phone to his desk. “We’re not even getting graded for this?”

Summary
It looks like the Sasha he once knew, the one who worked in Artefact Storage when he was in Research. It also looks like the one who held him and wiped away his tears and frustrations, all with a plastered smile.
He can’t trust his memory to tell him which is the truth.
“The other one,” he says, breathless. “It killed you.”
“No.” Her voice is seared into his memory. Her smile flickers. “It only took me.”

Summary
Mugs sometimes—not often, but sometimes—find their way to her doorstep. They come in the mail, they come from people she has never met, and occasionally, they come on their own.
The Collector is uncertain of her standing in this world, but there is one thing she does know—her name is known, and it is only a matter of time before she is sought out for more than a delivery.
The name of the game is “consequences.”

Summary
The note reads;
”Dearest Collector. I’d like to say something about tokens of goodwill, about trusting you more than I would trust myself, about toasting to future allies. All of it is true, of course—you seem much more competent than the last Collector—but I doubt our paths will ever cross more than they have now.
The truth is this: You are the Collector, and therefore this package belongs with no one but you. I don’t recommend touching them.
Tell the Archivist I said hi.
Signed,
Antonio Blake.”----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Summary
Alea iacta est.
The meaning of this phrase refers to the point of no return, and looking back, Daisy can't help but bring it to mind. It refers to a threshold, a doorway that once crossed, there is no going back. There is no undoing the choice made. There's no fixing what you already broke. What comes next is a given, and you've already surrendered control of the dice.
There are consequences to your choices. There always are. But Daisy thinks that maybe she can live with hers. And maybe... maybe Duke can, too.

Summary
See, when the school year first started, everyone at their school who had so much as glimpsed the man would testify that Mr. Sims was a stern and straight-laced teacher—the kind who would hound you until you just about wanted to commit arson. It’s a different story once you’ve spent any amount of time around him. It’s a different story again once he’s saved you from things unspeakable.
“Oh, good, Mr. Murdock—”
“—oh, shit.” Across the room, Tim rises from his seat, face twisting into something ugly. “No way. No fucking way.”

Summary
“But seriously, tell me you’re going to be okay for this trip? I don’t want everything that Mr Sims said to get into your head.”
Alex rolls their eyes. “It’s a ghost hunting sleepover, Zuri. Of course I’ll be fine, it’s going to be fun!”
From the look on her face, their friend doesn’t seem to believe them, but whatever. It was still the truth. And they weren’t, under any circumstances whatsoever, scared.

Summary
“I’m just saying, if I didn’t know any better, I’d think you were Beholding with the way you always want answers.”
“I’m not.” The words are out of her mouth before she can process them.
Kit pauses. There’s a wary look in his eyes, and she wishes she had the forethought to keep her mouth shut. “Alright,” he says slowly, “there was a lot of certainty in that. Which means you’re either in denial or you’re telling the truth, both of which means that you know something I don’t.”

Summary
Samama Khalid was nothing and nowhere. Everything was wrong.
Then, impossibly, a rising static crescendo. It screamed in his ears, and he would flinch if it weren’t so real next to everything that came before.
A breach, a crossing of a threshold, a palpable pressure caving around him, and then—
