Summary
The next day, she wakes up with bruises. Dried blood on her face from being shoved face first into a locker and a lump on her head from the books that fell on top of her. She has to swallow one - two - three of the pills Felix gave her to calm down, to keep her from sobbing. She’s dealt with worse. But then she had Felix and she had Seth and she had that stranger who whispered in her ear and slid into her body and tore the Pythia who threatened them apart. When she woke back then she was covered in blood, hands deep in viscera, no bruises, no struggle - she’d been the butcherer instead.
(Don't make me a murderer.)
--Takes place between Hello Charlotte 1 & 2.

Summary
She breaks into a million tiny blocks made out of blue light that seems to pierce through his skull and blind him. They fall through his hands like they’re nothing at all, only a tingle of electricity in his palms to say they even existed at all. A million, a billion tiny blocks that he just drops (he drops them and they fall so neatly in place, like playing Tetris) -
and then they fade away.
---Takes place sometime during Chapter 6. Spoilers for SDR2's endgame.

Summary
Maybe it’s pity. Maybe it’s because Lime had no one else. But she doesn’t like to think of herself as one with that much sentimentality. Being a sentimental demon was like being a sentimental soldier, and those were the ones who lost their minds over and over again. And she doesn’t like to think that she’s lost her mind quite yet. Not more than any other Hater demon had.
---Charlotte relives her death (day after day). Takes place some vague hundred years before canon. Spoilers for Charlotte's & Lime's memories.

Summary
That makes sense, really, because his love for the clan itself was turning to a tragic one, and he adored each and every one of his brothers in arms exactly the same, for their own special talents. For their own perfect selves.
Only, that’s not really true.
And he only truly realizes the reality of the situation when he starts coughing up hundreds and hundred of the same petal: anemone.

Summary
Lime cuts in, "Hey, yeah, does Dorothy know she has one too? Did you tell her?”
Dorothy glances up at her mother. “Yes, I -” she’d been sat down by her mother before this, before the contract had even been signed, and laid out her reasoning, laid out cautions for Dorothy to take in the future, built a world where having a witch’s heart made sense. Lime and Charlotte seemed to disagree. "I know it's important. Mama said -"
“It’s to protect us,” Susie interrupts. “It’s to protect her.” Charlotte splits a piece of cake, shuffling half of it onto Dorothy’s plate. Dorothy only picks at the pieces as she stares between her mother and the others. Something’s wrong, but it’s an adult thing, one she can’t grasp. Just like everything else that had been happening around her for the past year. She wonders if she only agreed to being a part of the pact so her mother would tell her, trust her.
---Lime just wants the Elfords to suffer for Susie's insult. Spoilers for pretty much the entire background of the story.

You’re not the only one who defined herself by battle. By the guts she’s spilled, by ten thousand yeerks dropped into empty space, by the constant constant internal battle of killing a family member. By the blood she tasted and the bones she broke and the role forced upon her and the loss, the constant reminder of loss. Crayak knocks on the dark matter that holds her, and a thousand fires and a thousand wars and a thousand evils explode outside their contained space.
---Post-war special. The kids struggle to stop seeing their bodies as weapons.

Summary
That sound makes this room - Lady Dorothy’s room - feel suffocating. Instead of being his safe space from the world, he sees the blood on the floor again. For the first time in a long time, Sirius Gibson slips up, makes what he feels to be a fatal mistake. Staring down the barrel of Wilardo Adler’s gun only proves that fact.

Summary
“You can move and breathe and speak with the parasite in you - only Wiltshire has been able to do that - and you think oh, after all of that, after the surgery was a success, after Felix worked so hard to give me the head start I wanted, I’m just going to drown in blood and vomit before I even begin.” He has a cool washcloth in his hands and moves forward to wipe blood from her face. She jerks away, and so he hands it to her instead.
He doesn’t move from her side, though.
