    Summary

    "Captain," one of the crew calls, hurrying from around the back of the main building. "There's a cave back here. One of the men saw something inside."

    The 'something' turns out to be a shadow, stretching jagged limbs briefly outside the darkness of the depth in flashes of overhead–or, sometimes, side-of-head–lightning.

    "It’s obviously just a rock formation," the Captain says and steps inside, lantern held aloft.

    Their crew members wait anxiously outside, making no move to follow.

    "It’s not a rock formation," the Captain calls out after a moment. "Bring more lanterns."

    The rule of the sky is: finders keepers.

    Summary

    Is his idea stupid? Probably. Is it a suicide mission? More than likely. Is he going to end up with Coyle’s baton frying him six ways to Sunday? Almost certainly, but Eugene is nothing if not opportunistic.

    (alternatively: reagent 3779 has a deal to make with coyle.)

    Summary

    Gustave awakens in a cathedral that breathes like a living body, where walls drip pigment and time has no edges. Waiting for him is Renoir — unfinished, irresistible, cruel in the way only someone who knows your every secret can be.

    What begins as silence becomes confession. What begins as restraint becomes ruin.

    In this place beyond mission, memory, or shame, Gustave learns what it means to be seen — and worshiped — and unmade.

    Summary

    He’s been staring at Rick’s lips, at Rick’s hair, at Rick’s everything except his eyes. There’s something about Rick’s eyes that sucks the marrow out of him. That makes him feel stupid.

    [Negan, and the times Rick maybe makes him question himself. Maybe.]
