Summary
The city carried too many emotions. There was too much noise, too much happening, too much pain. In alternate circumstances Benji Dunn might have gotten used to it—might have found it interesting, even exciting. However, due to his and his mother’s relative poverty and being frequently in the company of a man he’d almost definitely have fallen in love with if he didn’t happen to be an industrialist mogul—well. It was all a bit much.

Summary
They’re walking in companionable silence, Benji blessing the good fortune that led to his and Ethan’s walks home running parallel, when Benji glances over to find Ethan shivering.
“Really Ethan?” he asks, hiding his smile. “It’s a balmy sixty-seven degrees, almost too warm for a stroll. You can’t be cold.”

Summary
There are a few beats of silence that are more awkward than tense, then the figure speaks again. “Um, sorry about this. I’d let you up but—”
“I’d punch the daylights out of you?” Benji suggests helpfully.
“Something like that.”
“You’re not wrong. But you’re being so polite about this incapacitation business that I really would feel a bit bad about it.”

Summary
Because the trick goes like this: you play the game, and you pick the clues, and you solve the puzzle.
You’re a psychic, but you’re not. You’re a detective, but you’re not really.
There are rules, but they’re your rules: coded violations penned by your name and Gus’s.
Gus who knows you like the back of his hand, who has always been the one to pull you out of your own floods.
Or, Shawn is 29 when his lies finally match the number of his truths. He’s thirty when it catches up to him. The world still turns, albeit with a few alterations. -

Summary
“Excuse me, gents,” he said, “but there’s meant to be a sword around here somewhere as well, at least, that’s what it says here at any rate, and I was wondering…”
Aziraphale seemed embarrassed. He looked around himself, vaguely puzzled, then stood up, to discover that he had been sitting on the sword for the last half hour or so. He reached down and picked it up. “Sorry,” he said, and put the sword into the box.
