Summary
The first volume in the stack of aging technical manuals shoved into the kitchen drawer was called The Joy of Cooking. You didn’t much see what joy had to do with cooking, but then again, you didn’t much see what joy had to do with Mercymorn, and that hadn’t stopped her yet.

Five pieces of culinary advice Harrowhark took to heart, and one she did not. -

Summary
That set Harrow’s expression into a smirk. “Stop deflecting, Nav. Starting to feel old? You ought to ask Camilla for some tips the next time we see her, I think she’s aged better than you.”
Which was outrageous. Not that Camilla wasn’t smoking, she totally was. But it was the principle of the thing. “Harrowhark,” Gideon said. “In twenty years Camilla is going to be impossible to distinguish from a prune that has been left out in the sun for too long, and I will be routinely sought by—magazine photographers. Desperate for content to fill their MILF spreads. And nobody is going to believe that we’re actually together and will instead assume that you’ve hired me, because you are going to look like an even more desiccated prune than Camilla.”
This was all probably untrue, and even if it wasn’t, if past experience were to serve, Gideon would somehow be incomprehensibly attracted to the look. She wasn’t going to mention that last part.

Summary
Ianthe hasn’t seen Harrow in over a year, which still feels like a meaningful unit of absence, even though two decades into her eternal youth she’s been trying to teach herself to think differently about time.
Still, she spares an indulgent thought to considering how this reunion might have felt, if they were aging normally. She would have been forty-something, which seems like it might have been an appropriate age for her and Harrowhark to be halfway through their second bitter divorce.
Or: twenty years after Canaan house, Harrow and Ianthe on a planet of swamps and roses.

Summary
Time does not slow as her hands close around Catra’s wrists, still inches from her chest. There is only the honeyed ease of it, like plucking a fruit from the vine, or a note from a string. Slayer reflexes, she realizes.
What dissipates then instead of heat is an entire childhood of evenly matched competition; is last week when they wrestled here on this very grass and had gotten tired and laughingly called a truce before either of them could stay on top for more than a minute.
A Buffy the Vampire Slayer AU. No knowledge of Buffy necessary to read! Expect: high-school and then college-age modern au, Adora acquiring superpowers and fighting the supernatural forces of darkness (but was that really such a good idea?), and high drama right beside the mundane.

Summary
Perhaps some of these things happened unseen, or could have happened, or happened in a slightly different world, or never happened at all. But alas, the story of Katanagatari on that month and that day has ended.

Summary
Rose said, “If you can believe it—I say it more in recognition of the absurdity than denial of the fact—”
“How do you talk this much when you’re hungover? What does it take to make you quit yapping?”
“—our dear friend has a case of amnesia, with no clear cause. Shut up for a moment. Some weeks ago, Terezi agreed to spend a few days at my house for an extended study break. When she arrived three nights ago, she had lost her memory en route in the cab. All she knew was her own name and that she had a destination.” She finished off the glass, set it down, and said, “You should reintroduce yourself, dear.”
