Summary
Gideon stepped into what might have once been an opulent dining room. The table was set with many candles, and electric lights fizzed on the walls, but the begrimed walls drank up the light and gave nothing back. The whole grotesque length of that table was laid with china place settings. At the head of the table perched a tiny necromancer, skull-painted, as fragile and evil as a skeletonized bird.
Behind her, the doors clanged as Crux shut her into the room.
“What the fuck is going on?” asked Gideon.
“You asked me to take you to dinner before courting you further. So, here is your dinner. Please be seated.”Series

Summary
Gubbins has one hand down the back of Ianthe’s drawers, pulling their bodies close together, when Nona realizes that she ought to introduce herself. She trots forward onto the stretch of pebbles just outside the shipwreck, and as the moonlight catches her, the women spring apart, staring at her wide-eyed. Gubbins makes a half-hearted attempt to cover her breasts with her hands, then stumbles and sits, arms falling to her sides nervelessly.
“Harry?” says the taller one.
“It’s not her,” says the other. “Look at the eyes.”***
A chance encounter on the beach. Ianthe is manipulative, Kiriona is sad, and Nona is not as innocent as she seems.

Summary
Harrow huffed in irritation. “Defend yourself with a staff then!” With a triumphant flourish, she pulled a doe’s rib-bone out of a sheath at her belt.
“That’s…not a quarterstaff. That’s not even a quarter of a quarterstaff," said the stranger.
Harrow felt a smile pull at her lips. “Oh yes, but…in my hands, it grows.”
“Thus quoth the maiden.”
“Yes?” said Harrow, confused. “I said in my hands it—” She felt her face heat, doubtless all too visible below the jawless bottom of her mask. “You—you are puerile!”
“That’s a very fancy way to say that I’m funnier than you.”

The bold outlaws Nova Hawk and Gideon meet for the first time on a narrow log-bridge. But is it really their first meeting?
Or: what if Robin Hood and Little John were both lesbians?

Summary
Every December, employees of Canaan Mall are selected at random to serve as Santa's elves. This year, Hot Topic employee Harrowhark is one of the unlucky winners. And that's not all - the awful Abercrombie model from across the hall is playing Santa. As the countdown to Christmas begins, Harrow fights whiny children, impatient parents, and worst of all, the attentions of the hottest Santa the world has ever seen.
“How do you do it?”
“Do what? Look this good? Maintain such a chiseled physique? Some people will tell you it’s 80% diet, 20% exercise, but what I’ve learned is—”
“No, you insufferable dingbat. How do you do…this?” Harrow gestures at the tree, the big Santa chair, the velvet carpet that will soon be filled once again with people eager to meet Santa. “All the holly jolly Santa shit.”
“Ah. Well, my dear, let me explain. Here, sit on my lap.”
“I think you know that I will do no such thing.”
Gideon shrugs. “Worth a shot. First of all, you’re as cuddly as a cactus, as charming as an eel, a bad banana with a greasy black peel.”

Summary
She pulled the black fabric up from her shoulders and draped it over her head like a hood. It hid all the pale hair entirely, cast that blood-adorned face in jagged shadows, and if Kiriona let her eyes go out of focus, it was easy to pretend she reminded her of-
“Fuck.”
***
Harrow is gone. Tower Prince life is infinitely depressing. And oh dear, who put Ianthe Naberius in charge of role playing for tonight?
