    Summary

    "Sometimes I don't think I'm really living here. Sometimes I think I'm just… waiting."

    "Waiting for what?"

    "For something to choose for me. For a massive success that would make me stay. Or for something terrible, some giant fuckup to force me to come back home. Anything to take the choice out of my hands, you know?"

    Damien comes to visit Angela in New York for a week.

    Summary

    'It was the urge that drove me crazy—nothing that he specifically did. Though I sometimes had the paranoid inkling that Spencer was all too aware of this impulse, and tested the limits of the defect as a result. Always trying to see how far he could stretch the bounds of this weakness before I snapped shut and withdrew entirely. It was an infuriating game of chicken that I rarely ever managed to win.

    This back and forth between us had long since become a routine.'

     

    Or,

     

    You have a reluctant crush on your captivating coworker, Spencer Agnew, and the tension between you becomes increasingly excruciating to ignore.

    Summary

    "Why have we never dated?"

    (Angela's eyebrows are somewhere up there, way too far for her to yank back down.)

    There are a hundred different ways to answer this— some more diplomatic, others more explosive. Not in an angry way, of course; more like explosive with… awkward laughter, with redirection, with every manner of yes, and that Angela's mind could think of.

    But Angela doesn't expect that the yes, and she would choose is:

    "I don't know. Why haven't we?"
