    Summary

    I see the coconut crab who swims in your neighbour's pool at night. Maybe Simon's in there, too. Who else holds their breath in there, Betty?

    Betty is being digested by Golb. She doesn't have time to dwell on this, though, she has to secure a place in a decent research program and launch her career as an antiquarian. It would help if she could sleep at night. There's something wrong with the pool next door.

    Summary

    Five had a...special relationship with the Handler during his time at the Commission, or maybe he didn’t. After the apocalypse doesn’t happen, he tries to order his memories of the last few years while also actively suppressing them. It goes badly.

    His siblings are worried, and genuinely want to help. They are not unsuccessful.

    Barriss Offee had many reasons to act as she did. Or none. Or just one.

    Summary

    Mydei absolutely wrecks a guy who looks way too much like the love of his life, forgets what mercy is, forgets what stopping is, then tenderly holds hands with him in the aftermath like a war criminal with feelings. Nobody says ‘I love you,’ but everyone’s gonna need therapy. 10/10 would desecrate a dead god’s altar again.

    Summary

    Allison wanders more, not ready for the sleep to end, and takes in the breadth of nothing in which she’s draped her house. The fad of void that reflects her heart completely, or else does not at all, and to such a frightening degree she can hardly think it. What if Claire hates it here? What if Claire hates it everywhere? What if Claire has powers and Allison was right, always right to not want kids? What if the nightmares are premonitions and Reginald comes into the dark empty house and rends the child from her breast and talks about finally having a useful seventh and there’s still milk on Claire’s little lip and Allison can’t do anything can’t even breathe and the worst part is that maybe Claire is better off because at least Reginald can do something other than ache.

    -------
    An exploration of Allison, trauma, and motherhood.
