    Summary

    "Like we're aware you just got goosebumps."

    Distantly, Carol knows something is amiss. But Zosia’s lips just ghosted against her own and the tug inside of Carol was like the end of a bungee jump—a jerk towards something inevitable. She stares at Zosia, who hovers only inches away, making that same face she always makes, landing somewhere between hesitance, asking, and… Was that want?

    Summary

    But Alex calls, five years later, out of the blue, and says, voice thin and just this side of desperate, “She said not to call you, you know.” Lena says nothing, only makes a vague humming noise intended to convey some sense of irony. “But she’s being dumb, and I’m not above begging.”

    Lena’s jaw clenches. That’s rich, really, the idea that Kara, of all people, thinks herself above things.

    “Look, Lena, I know…” Alex starts but then immediately stops, as if she’s realized that there are about fifty ways that sentence can end and precisely none of them are good. Instead, she says, “There’s just nobody else. And we—I really need your help.”

    -

    aka the one where Lena does what she had always done when faced with the disintegration of a fundamental personal relationship—that is, she ran, until she couldn’t.

    Summary

    Hob whistles, low and impressed, and makes one more turn to admire the extremely obvious handprint on his right arsecheek.

     

    Dream doesn't bother to think of his own strength. It's not like Hob minds.

    Summary

    Because you are old, and because you remember the forests that made you, and because stories and blood have seeped into your wood, you dream.

    The White Horse has watched its man come and go and come again. Sometimes he is alone. Sometimes, when he is happiest, there is another man with him.

    Summary

    '400 year-old pocket knife restoration,' the title says, and the still thumbnail is a picture of an anonymous man's hands dipping an unidentified object – though he's willing to guess it's the aforementioned four-hundred year-old knife – into what looks like a baking soda bath.

    And then it cuts to a video of the knife.

    His knife.

    Hob Gadling watches an ASMR video about knife restoration and gets a bit in his feelings about the whole thing (sometimes immortality isn't all it's cracked up to be). Thankfully, he has a friend who understands.
