Summary
Best friends don’t spend two years dancing around each other like that; best friends don’t grab each other by the hips and spin them against the wall and get jealous over other people and not talk about it. Nayeon did not have the courage to interrogate this openly. But the volcanic force of her emotions had made everything feel so vivid and real. And she had thought: maybe.

Summary
Really, Chaeryeong thinks, making brief eye contact with the embarrassed-looking driver through the tinted window, they’ve got it all wrong. It wasn’t the lack of albums, or the sparse touring, or the mistimed hiatus that tore through the group in the end. Five members meant five different directions, after all, each with its own gravitational force of desire and need. Yuna refused to speak to Jisu for a week after she sat them all down and told them she was leaving ITZY for good. Yeji had been slated to debut as a soloist first, but was then passed over after longer complications with her injury. Ryujin got the better song, but in a stroke of random luck Yuna’s went so viral that it propelled her into stardom with the general public.
And as for Chaeryeong —

Summary
Chaeyeon, with a scalpel-like meanness that could only come from a sibling, had called her a coward. Maybe that’s what Ryujin had recognized in her, in the end.
“We just weren’t that compatible,” Chaeryeong says, with a half-shrug and a half-smile, like she was telling an old joke. “There’s not that much to the story.”

Summary
The problem—and Yizhuo recognizes this to be a real fucking problem for both her sanity and their standing in the championship—is that Ryujin knows how to read her too.

Summary
Anyone else and Chaeryeong would’ve hexed them to the North Sea for that. But it’s just Ryujin, stupid and tactless and boyish and decidedly un-Slytherin, and privately Chaeryeong likes being at the receiving end of this kind of easy ribbing, where a joke is a joke and not a scathing critique wrapped in twelve layers of small talk.

Summary
The thought arrived uninvited and immediately irritated her.
Across the table, Andrea was studying the condensation running down the side of her water glass, apparently oblivious to the fact that she had just made the last two decades considerably more confusing. People did not usually remember promotions, or cities someone had lived in, or the exact order in which those things had happened. They certainly didn’t recall them casually over lunch nearly twenty years later. At least, not unless they had been paying attention. Not unless, at some point, they had actively wanted to know.
And if Andrea had been paying attention all this time, then Emily suddenly found herself confronted with a question she had never once considered asking.
Why?

Spiralling after your ex resurfaces after 20 years and has a version of events of your break up that is very much different to yours is normal, right? Emily Charlton is asking for a friend.

Summary
“So, the breakup must have been pretty bad then, I’m guessing,” Buffy says, in that tone that she uses when she wants to sound casual about something she’s been obsessing over.
Faith raises her eyebrows, glancing over at Buffy. “As far as I know, you’re still together. As much as you ever were, anyway — I never really got all the details.”
Of all the things that have changed, this has stayed exactly as Faith remembers. Buffy doesn’t talk to Faith about her life. Especially not her boyfriends. Not any more than she absolutely has to.
“No, not me and Spike,” Buffy says, pushing off the railing and crossing the gap between them to sit down next to Faith. She’s so close Faith can smell that stupid, fruity body-spray she loves. Cherry blossoms. She’s so close Faith can’t help but feel a pang of regret about it, the way the ashtray smell of her bad habit is going to smother that nice, clean scent. “Me and you.”

When Buffy gets her memory wiped by a spell, she seeks out Faith to answer some burning questions.
