    Summary

    A letter from Nona to Harrow, sharing some important questions and information that she'll need before she returns to her body.

    The first thing you should know is that I’m not writing this letter myself. I’m telling it to Palamedes and he’s writing it down. He says that’s called dictating. The first time he said that word, Pyrrha overheard and said, ‘Dick Tate? I hardly know him!’ and then Palamedes said ‘stop interrupting, and we don’t know anyone named Tate.’ Palamedes says I’m getting off topic again. Anyway, Palamedes is writing for me because I can’t. I don’t understand why that’s so important, but Palamedes says not disclosing that information is a serious breach of academic integrity. I don’t know what that means, but apparently you will, and you’ll think it’s important.

    Summary

    The thing about Damianos Akielos is that he is a Hot Commodity. There’s probably a 30 page waiting list out there of people who want a chance to date him. The only problem is that since the age of fourteen, he’s never been single for more than a week. A week!

    “He sounds great,” the bartender says, polishing a glass. Laurent realises that he’s been speaking out loud. He is drunk. He also realises that this bartender - Rick, or Mick, or Mike, or whatever his nametag says, words are a little blurry at this point - doesn’t realise the magnitude of the situation at hand.

    Damen Akielos is Single, Facebook says.

    “He’s single,” Laurent says.

    Summary

    So, of course, instead of being the smart and composed human being he’s suppose to be, Matt Holt the aerospace engineer (currently minoring in astrobiology, because, hey, fuck you, it’s awesome) gives his words a staggering zero-point-three seconds of serious consideration before blurting out, very simply, “You’re an idiot, and it’s making life kind of difficult for me.”

    // or: Matt learns what it’s like to have everything he loves ripped away from him and decides, mainly over the course of a lucid dream and a botched amputation, that he’s never going to let it happen again.

    Ryland has a tattoo. So does Rocky. It's not the same thing, but it also really is.
