Making Ronan Lynch smile felt as charged as making a bargain with Cabeswater. These were not forces to play with.

I will never leave him. It will be this, always, for as long as he will let me. If I had words to speak such a thing, I would have. But they were none that seemed big enough for it, to hold that swelling truth.

As if he had heard me, he reached for my hand. I did not need to look; his fingers were etched into my memory, slender and petal-veined, strong and quick and never wrong.

“Patroclus,” he said.

He was always better with words than I.

His eyes were narrowed in that way people do when they’re trying hard to appear casual, but it was obvious this story was anything but casual to him.                                        They were just such small hurts, you know?

A small part of Gansey suspected what hearing his own name really meant. He knew it, probably, by the time his friends came to his car’s rescue an hour later. He knew it, probably, when the psychics at 300 Fox Way read a tarot card for him. He knew it, probably, when he retold the entire story to Roger Malory in person.

—inej ghafa and dunyasha lazareva.

inej had no doubt she would meet the ivory-and-amber girl again. she wanted to believe she would emerge victorious when that time came, but she could not argue with dunyasha’s gifts. maybe she really was a princess, a girl of noble birth trained in the killing arts, destined for greatness like a heroine in a story. then what did that make inej? an obstacle in her path? tribute on the altar of death? a smudge of a suli acrobat who fights like a common street thug.

Andrew Minyard didn’t look like much in person, blonde and five feet even, but Neil knew better. Andrew was the Foxes’ freshman goalkeeper and their deadliest investment. Most of the Foxes were self-destructive, whereas Andrew seemed keen on collateral damage.
