Summary
Everyone can see it.The natural blending of civilian and cape identities had to account for violence, for conflict, and for a careful pruning of external forces and influences. Ashley was very good at pruning, and very easy to prune now that I was close enough.
That was without getting into the various degrees of non-platonic subtext.

Summary
next update: TBASo here’s the deal: my name is Kihri Vyas, and I’m dead.
(That’s not really important, it happened ages ago, but it’s good to have the context.)
Anyway, me and my sister Zarah (the only person who can see or hear me) have basically been on our own since I kicked the bucket, surviving on the streets of Kaila and sort of just being miserable and bored and tired a lot. I mean, I haven’t, cause I’m dead, but she has. It sucks, but that’s business as usual for us.
What isn’t B-A-U is that a bunch of other homeless folks have been disappearing in the last few months, and some of them have been turning up with anatomically-improbable, but extraordinary fatal, injuries. Cops don’t give a shit, of course, and my sister’s a boneheaded bleeding heart, so we’ve been investigating them ourselves. And, well, we’ve found a bunch of weird shit. Stuff made of solid light, ghost attack dogs, people glowing black, somehow, some kind of living robot…
Actually, you know what?
It’s probably easier if you see for yourself.

Summary
- Maggie Smith, Good Bones...
For every bird there is a stone thrown at a bird.
For every loved child, a child broken, bagged,
sunk in a lake. Life is short and the world
is at least half terrible, and for every kind
stranger, there is one who would break you,
though I keep this from my children. I am trying
to sell them the world. Any decent realtor,
walking you through a real shithole, chirps on
about good bones: This place could be beautiful,
right? You could make this place beautiful.Everything is completely fine at Number 12 Barnslow Drive.

Summary
“Well, what if there is no tomorrow? There wasn’t one today!”
Emma knows what to expect when there are new magical problems in town - monsters, curses, and memory loss. It’s been her life for years now. Defeat the evil, figure out what can break the curse, and try not to lose your mind when you get a third, or fourth, copy of your memories dumped into your head. Easy.
Unfortunately, this time somebody’s flipped the script on her, and now she’s trapped living the same day over and over and over again. And she’s the only one who remembers.
Joy.
