    Summary

    Fascinating, he thought, staring at the little hand in his. Frilliam had been flat leucistic when Ford abandoned him. The stress of the wild and his prodigious growth must have activated some chromatophores. Xanthic spots climbed along the back of his limbs and down his spine, the faint pattern almost invisible in the Oregon sunshine.

    A familiar, pink visitor appears in the creek behind the Mystery Shack.

    Summary

    Ambivalence (n.):
    A state of internal dialectical tension caused by coexisting contradictory emotions or motivations, often resulting in impaired emotional regulation.

    Three weeks after Ford’s near-death experience, the portal still hasn’t been dismantled. It feels like the universe is stuck in limbo: Stan just wants to be a good brother, but he doesn’t want to get caught up in his twin’s creepy demonic cult; Ford wants to leave his past behind, but not if he has to destroy the Earth in the process; and Bill wants everything, but the multiverse refuses to let him have it.

    If they keep throwing spaghetti at the wall, maybe something will finally stick.

    Summary

    “S'not your fault that—”

    “—I hurt you,” Susie finished. She chewed on the concept, the edges of her voice frantic, her throat thick. “Because you deserved it.”

    “Yes.” Kris pressed her hands against their chest. They smiled in a way that failed to be reassuring. Each desperate breath shuddering through their lungs confirmed everything Susie didn't want to know. “S’fine. It’s okay.”

    Kris burned like a charred pan straight out of the oven, or an oil fire stoked by liquor. Susie reeled away. “You—you were trying to set me up,” Susie accused, trying to edge words around the chasm opening in her gut. “You were trying to get me to hit you.”


    Kris wants Susie to hurt them. They need her to hurt them. Susie isn't as on board with the idea as they are.
