    Summary

    “Clean yourself up,” she commands.

    The girl— Suletta Mercury— dutifully does as told, blowing her nose very loudly. Miorine typically doesn’t care what others think of her, much less her classmates, but right this moment, she wishes she could fall through the floor. This girl is so noisy, so full of life. Being in her presence feels like the physical manifestation of nails on a chalkboard.

    Once she’s mopped up her tears, Suletta returns the pack of tissues, now only half-full, and Miorine places it back into her desk, not looking at her.

    “Now leave me alone.”

    Suletta’s tone is full of sadness when she replies, “Oh, Ms. Miorine. I could never do that.”

    Summary

    She had half expected that Suletta would abandon her upon moving in to Earth House. They all seem to have more in common with one another than she and Miorine do, despite the divide between Earthian and Spacian. She’s somewhat mystified that Suletta continues to come around at all.

    But then again, she is Suletta Mercury— her groom, her Holder, her business partner. She’s obviously taking her role very seriously.

    “You don’t have to wait around every time you come here. I told you you could come inside,” says Miorine when Suletta draws level with her. “It’s a standing invitation.”

    Miorine Rembran has never allowed herself to be vulnerable before. Then Suletta Mercury becomes her new Holder.

    Summary

    Kita was too bright for Hitori, and such a polar opposite it made her want to hide away in her dark closet forever - and definitely not because her heart fluttered when she sent a blinding smile her way.

    Not a chance. (If anything, her heart was racing because Kita was so cheerful and unpredictable it scared her.)

    Or; Hitori can't seem to realize her own feelings, no matter how many times it's smacked in her face.

    Summary

    There’s a pause, and then Wednesday speaks again. “I admit that I do have one ulterior motive in asking you to visit for the holidays.”

    Enid laughs, unsurprised; there’s the Wednesday she knows, even a phone line and a coast away. “Yeah? What is it?”

    “I told my parents that I’m in a relationship,” Wednesday says, offhand, like it’s just another sentence and not a lightning strike to Enid’s heart. "With you, specifically."
