Summary
When Lachlan first fell away into the sky, felt the Black Hole (Black Hole)’s inevitable gravity dragging him out of the tentative calm of Atlantis’ shadows in the Vault and into a maelstrom of shadows, his first thought had been, well, at least it can’t get any worse.
He was right, like he usually was, but he was wrong too.
(Lachlan Shelton screams at the sky in the Black Hole (Black Hole))

Summary
Neither of them are very good at this, are they? For all they want to help each other, they’re not very good at being helped. They’re the kind of people who keep going as if everything is fine, who keep pitching as the world falls apart around them, who keep running as their body burns away.
It’s the siesta. Can’t they learn to stop, for a while? Stop and let themselves be helped?
(Three scenes from the Patterson-Gloom apartment during the Grand Siesta)

Summary
Elijah Bates and Hobbs Cain get along pretty well on the bench. They're not great players, they don't have a rivalry, but they keep each other company during the games. But Elijah is pretty sure those barbed jokes are becoming less sincere and more affectionate, and it sure seems like they're making more and more excuses to talk to each other... It's a good thing nothing could happen to change that! Nothing Bad Ever Happens To The Moist Talkers!
