Summary
“We’re but tools of their volition,” Gilgamesh said, gritting his teeth until two shallow lines creased in above his cheeks. The sun was sweating glimmers down his collar as he punched through another slate wall. Dust raised around his heels.
“And?” Under the shades of some large, flowering plants they’d yet to learn the name of, Thena ribbed. The soil was soft and warm under her back. It felt nice.
“And- pickled fruits for dinner again,” Gil grunted, shaking his shoulders loose. “Why build this thing in the first place if they’re just going to mow it down?”
...
“Of course,” then he stepped around until he was beside her, resting his elbow on the thick stem of their strange plant. “I just wanted some eggs. Remember eggs? I liked them.”
“I know you did.”
“They’re very filling.”
“I know they are.”

Summary
Still, when Bucky sat down before sleep and thumbed open the copy, he felt once again like a teenager hiding in his room with questionable materials; typically from his family’s subscription to Life Quarterly, the kind of magazine that fitted Czechoslovakia politics, Sheboygan Boyscout interviews and garden tending tips in the same issue— Bucky didn’t care about the journalism, of course, it was mostly about the colored film pictures of Radio City Rockettes or what not, the salvation for every other sweaty, hormonal thirties’ kid who was too busy thinking about their next alone time to take in the virtue of abstinence.
Bucky flips to the part about Sam, who was clearly the Radio City Rockettes of this volume.
They had given him a two page spread. Centerfold treatment.

Summary
When Bucky strolls over, suddenly free of adamancy, hoisting himself up their quote unquote reclaimed millwood pines tabletop that’s probably, actually made of some industrial mishmash, Sam can see from those smug baby blues that this is what he wanted all along. “What’s up, Cap,” the man cants up the corners of his mouth. “Heard you’re ready for some.”
“How does anyone ever handle you?” Sam wonders, from the bottom of his heart. And the face in front of him blinks.
“They don’t.”

Summary
“Nah,” Bucky pats him away. “Wasn’t doing anything. Just looking at the sky. Waiting for sunrise. It’s pretty.”
“You sound like a vampire who’s just discovered sunscreen.”
“You sound like Drew Carey on that shitty improv show.” Bucky counters. Sam decides not to question where or why Bucky has consumed that piece of information.
“It’s not that shitty.”

Summary
“Look, man, I’m really sorry.” Eddie feels a sudden weight on his conscience.It seems that the universe can always find to accost him with hawking guilt trips after delivering its punches. “It’s just- I really don’t need a stripper. Or a clown. Definitely not a stripper clown.”
“A clown stripper.” Tall-and-curly corrects. “A stripper clown would just be a character clown; I, on the other hand, show whole asscheeks.”

Summary
Geralt starts noticing.
Sometimes he stares. Sometimes he tugs his cloak about him, breath making ghosts in the chilly night air, and lets himself see. Jaskier’s stark profile against the backdrop of the flames. The play of light and shadow over his face, cutting across his neck in a sharp line, dripping soft and golden into the crinkles of his coat.
Or: Things that changed since Geralt met Jaskier. Or Jaskier found Geralt. Or- you know.
