    Summary

    She has Night in her veins, always will — like all Nyx’s children, her ichor runs black, shot through with starlight — and she can slip away from day’s harsh revelations as easily as a comet darts behind a passing cloud. She’s modest, after all, for the uninvited guest that she is: just here to drop off her little gift on the table. A little something from the Garden of the Hesperides, just a nice golden apple done up with a bit of style.

    Kallisti, she’s carved into it.

    For the fairest.

    Summary

    “You could want something for yourself, you know,” Kay tells him over chess, bolder than any of the others, no matter where life leads them.

    Arthur looks back at him, puzzled and not trying to disguise it. “Kay,” he asks quietly. “Do you believe I don’t want this?”

    “You could want something for yourself,” Kay says again, with a point to prove.

    Summary

    The Archivist and Tim fend off a wild beast attack while reorganizing the Archives -- or, at least, that's probably one of the versions of it that Tim's going to tell at the water cooler, later.

    Summary

    Every attempt at escape has, thus far, been thwarted. The exit points are fairly inaccessible to you, and you haven’t been able to get access to a phone to call for help. Even your stupid, stupid attempts to solicit help via the TV commercial were a fool’s errand: your desperate pleas all landed frame-by-frame on the cutting room floor, unheard and unheeded, and all you got for your trouble was a punch to your solar plexus. Funny how before this month, you couldn’t have pointed out your solar plexus even if you tried. Now it’s nicely labelled for you in purple and blue and a ghastly, jaundice-yellow blush. Thanks, Jon.

    Proving your own declining mental state, you’ve now resorted to trying to make a game of this for yourself. To wit:

    Summary

    If you have ever been on an extended sea voyage on a small boat, then you may be familiar with the feeling of wishing you were back upon land, surrounded by the company of all your closest friends and associates, where there is plenty of fodder for conversation -- a phrase which here means “things to talk about other than saltwater, the weather, the narrow dimensions of the boat, or which fins a shark might wear shoes on, if it wore them” -- where the food is freshly prepared and where, so far as you are able to tell, the floor remains mostly where you left it.

    The Calumnious Coda, presented here with a preceding letter by the author.
