    Summary

    There was a realization regarding Armand at the back of my mind, struggling to be born.

    He wanted something from me. That much had always been clear, from the night we met. He watched me with an intensity that was difficult to describe, his eyes following my movements as if to catalogue them for further study. There were three incidents in particular, however, that prompted me to begin making the connections.

    Louis and Armand fall into each other's orbits and move closer with every revolution.

    Summary

    Every year, on her birthday, he allows himself to dwell on Kirsten. Ten years after he last laid eyes on her, right after all of those unforgivable words tumbled out of his mouth, he truly wonders if she’s dead. If she is, she didn’t bother to haunt him like Frank did. He supposes that there’s other people she would have preferred to spend the time with. 

    He’s different now. He wishes that their paths could have crossed later, when he was ready to be a f—whatever she needed him to be. He would have been less sharp with her. He would have danced with her more, and listened to her strange little stories. He would have tried to understand her.

    Summary

    It isn't that Lucy doesn't know Helen is her mother. She remembers, in hazy, smudged colours, the shape of those lips upon her forehead. The feeling of those soft fingers in her hair, knotted at the back, greasy in the front. Dark eyes, in dots, as a painting that makes no sense at all when viewed up close.

    Helen Pevensie is thick layers of paint, not yet dry. Not yet framed. Not yet hung, with instructions on where to stand.
