Summary
Caleb and Mollymauk are the only ones of the Mighty Nein at the Leaky Tap one night, when Caleb notices that a stranger seems to have designs on sleeping with Molly whether Molly wants it or not. Caleb must swallow down his fears of drawing attention in order to save his teammate from harm, but that still leaves as him the only one available to look after Molly as he sweats and suffers through the poison that was put in his drink for the sake of making him an easier target.
In the depths of his fevered delirium, Molly admits some things - about his life, about his past - that Caleb knows he would never truly want to say or want anyone else to hear. But all Caleb can do is listen, try to ease the sickness, and reflect on what a burden understanding can sometimes be.

Summary
The Xhorhasian infiltration of Felderwin fails, but Yeza's still missing, and all signs point towards Rexxentrum.
While scouting the back alleys of the city, the Nein are saved from a near-deadly ambush by the worst possible guardian angel: Trent Ikithon. Just like that, the casters of the party wake to discover they've been made unwilling students of the Soltryce Academy, trapped under the watchful eye of the faculty. As Caleb tries to hold himself together in the face of Ikithon's resumed tutelage, the rest of the scattered Nein scramble to find each other, find Yeza, and most importantly, find a way to get them all out of Rexxentrum alive.

Summary
Without realizing it, Nott had collapsed to her knees by the cell door in despair, staring despondently into the shiny bauble in her hand that was now the only item she had to her name. Seconds passed, or maybe minutes, before distantly she heard the sound of a snap, and a swath of warm fur brushed against her outstretched hands.
“What?!” Nott shrieked, backing away from the sudden appearance of a cat, before stepping towards it again with a growing snarl, bauble forgotten as it rolled away from her feet. She had been surviving off rats and thrown away food for the past few months, so a cat wouldn’t be any worse.
She was about to pounce forward when a quiet voice spoke up from the back wall, a soft wheeze audible between phrases. “Bitte… don’t eat… my cat.”

Summary
[ SPOILERS FOR C2E49 ]
“Again.”
Bren obeys, as he always does. He mutters a cantation under his breath, one that he has no problem remembering, and lets his palms darken. Fire evolves — a flicker first, then a ball and then a ray that extends and slams against the wall of the basement that he’s spent countless hours in, the same bricks that have been darkened by fire over the years.

Summary
After a false start that was very nearly also the end, Caleb and Molly are starting to figure out the shape of their new relationship, both in bed and out. But one night, the gulf of sexual inexperience that lies between them gets to Molly just a little, and he asks for Caleb to teach him more.
Caleb is happy to oblige. Even if he doesn't always understand why Molly enjoys what he does, the fact that he enjoys it is what matters. The fact that Caleb can give them both what they want in a way that's safe and loving means the world.
He's only known sex as something painful before but now, together with Molly, maybe they can both make something better.
(Written as a followup to "Ask Me No Questions, I'll Tell You No Lies", but can be read independently.)

Summary
Sequel to "More Than This".
Though the Mighty Nein were able to restore Caleb's mind, the brand on his forehead betrays the other scars he still carries from his ordeal. As the Empire's policy of punishing "unauthorized mages" by branding their flesh and breaking their minds becomes more widespread, Caleb finds himself struggling beneath the feelings of fear and violation that he was never truly able to address before.
He turned aside from retribution once already in the hopes of keeping his friends safe from the falling hammer, but the Mighty Nein have grown stronger since the tower fell. Mollymauk seeks to encourage him towards the idea that the time to strike back might be fast approaching. And perhaps, in the light of a corrupt institution burning down, Molly and Caleb might finally find their way together.

Summary
[ SPOILERS FOR CR C2E24 ]
“You were always a better dancer than me, Astrid…"
One, two, three. Caleb’s feet are bare against the dewy grass as he follows the rhythm of the music playing, his skin warm as the summer sun shines on him and the girl he’s holding onto. He squints as the light catches in his eyes, leaving him just able to make out a head of short brown hair and dimples that are caused by a soft smile.
He smiles back, closing his eyes against the bright light.

Summary
The darkness of the cellar grew suddenly brighter, and Caleb smiled to himself as he saw four orbs of soft golden light spinning throughout the room. “There’s so much you can do with just some dancing lights. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of that. I don’t see how I could.”
“I never did,” Caleb whispered, and he still felt a pang of loss in his chest at the words. But when Molly heard that pang in his voice and looked over at him with a soft frown on their face, he forced a smile. He did not begrudge Molly their magic, certainly not after all they’d endured to get it – or, more accurately, to have it forced on them. But Caleb wished so fiercely that it hadn’t worked out to be a trade.
* * *
Caleb and Mollymauk lose their old powers to Trent Ikithon's experiments, but gain some new ones in exchange. Even after they escape together, they have to take some time to figure out what life is going to be like from now on.
