Summary
Vi was the first person to see Jinx clearly. She saw her for what she was—something else hiding inside of a child’s skin. Not like a snake, shedding its skin, which implies thought, progression, but something formless, changing without growing, a fluid filling whatever space it can find. A tool—not multipurpose like a Swiss army knife, but multipurpose like a hammer. To a hammer, everything looks like—well.
Or: Post season-1, Jinx and Sevika talk.

Summary
“I’m going to pin it so it won’t pop up. We don’t want any creases or bumps, so I’m just going straight in.” Velvette almost finished with Is that okay, but changed tack at the last second. “You’re not going to be a pussy about this, are you?”
Angel Dust was grinning. “What, do you want me to flatter you?” He put on a squeaky falsetto. “It’s the biggest I’ve ever seen, I swear mister. I don’t know if I can take it.”

Summary
“Okay," Joel said. He shook out his shirt before pulling it on again. "Okay. No hard feelings, but this isn’t happening.”
“What?” Etho didn’t move from his spot at the foot of bed. “No, Joel—you can—you can just talk me through it a bit.”
“Sorry. It’s just a personal rule—I don’t do gay awakenings anymore.” Joel stepped into his pants. “Bad for my mental health.”
Etho cast about for something to say in response to that, and eventually landed on the simple, but true: “I’m not gay.”
“Oh, god,” Joel said.

Summary
“What are you doing?” Martyn can’t help but ask. Scott's rummaging through their mess of upturned and singed chests, just feet from Martyn’s bed.
“Breakfast,” Scott says, finally unearthing a rusted pot from the center of the pile. “You want eggs?”
“Over-easy,” Martyn says. Because his game is about to be over, quite easily—which is a joke that isn’t funny, even in his own head.

“You think that Fjord would?”
“Of course, he would. He loves me.”
“I think that might be part of the problem.” Beau rubbed her eyes.
Jester and Beau have an affair. Jester doesn’t get what she wants.
