    Summary

    They play it.

    Then they play it again.

    The recording crackles with static, like the signal was barely strong enough to push through.  It’s not just the white noise of a bad connection in the background.  There’s the sound of something groaning, like metal that wants to give way to gravity.  Something else that makes Jesse think of smoke passing through ventilation.  

    Once, just before the audio cuts off, Jesse would swear he hears laughter.

    Summary

    Gorou sighs, resigned. “That Hina-san?” he says. “It’s me. She’s me.” 
    Itto laughs his stupid laugh. “Okay,” he says, chortling.
    “I’m not joking,” Gorou says.
    Itto laughs again. But then he meets Gorou’s eyes, and abruptly stops laughing. “Gods,” he says. “You’re serious?”

    love in the time of advice columns.

    Summary

    The pink-haired woman turns away, hands folded underneath her chest as she feigns shyness. "What is she like?"

    The apple is sweet. The inside of the fruit is soft, yielding compared to the defensiveness of the skin. "Perfect. Commanding. Often, I cannot walk in a perfect line after she is done. More often than that, I cannot walk."

    "Better than I?"

    A pause. 

    "Yes."

    "Oh."

    Sara takes another bite of the apple, the juice running down her fingers. It is sticky, sweet, and cloying on her lips as well.

    --

    A diplomatic meeting.
