Summary
They've been at it for over an hour already, and Rosie still can't stay on his bicycle long enough to travel in a straight line for more than five seconds. Getting him to ride a single revolution took the better part of the sunlight that's left. At this rate, it'll be too dark to try turning left and right. Gravity, it would appear, is Rosie's mortal enemy on the ground, but not in the sky.
Harry is perplexed.
Or, Rosie asks Croz for a favor.

Summary
"I've traded blades with you. I know how you bleed and the weight of your body against mine as you struggle for life. Of course I understand." Atreides touches his chest, slender fingers lingering where Feyd had failed to impale him. "It is who you are."
Feyd pushes down a smile. "And what is it you desire of me," he says, slow and measured, "my Lord?"

Summary
Turning around, he places his palms on the desk. If Izzy were still in the room, he’d chastise him for his carelessness. Never show your back to another man. That is a sign of weakness. That is how you make enemies.
When Stede was here, he could lower his guard and—
No.

Summary
When he was growing up, he was so afraid of scorpions he thought about them every ten seconds, every five. Started drawing them on his desk at school. Dreaming about them. Catching them under cups in the garage. He knew every fact there was to know about scorpions.
He was wearing one on his back right now, custom stitched onto his jacket. He had asked for that. Wanted it. Paid money for it.
Maybe Standard was afraid of another man fucking his wife the way he used to be afraid of scorpions.

Summary
Don and Kathy would move in together. They would have a dog or two and then inevitably, a small parade of adorable little brats who would call him Uncle Cosmo, and they would spend less and less time with him, not on purpose but busy with the rest of their lives, and ultimately Cosmo would learn to make his peace with it because he’d have no other choice and he would have to try to move on and not live too much in his memories. He could picture it so clearly, he figured if the songwriting gig with Monumental didn’t pan out, he could always return to the backwater circuit with a new act: The Amazing Cosmo of the Cosmos—ladies and gentlemen, he sees the future, he reads the stars, he silently pines for his best married pal and all the while tap dancing!
Don and Kathy inviting him along on their honeymoon, though—that part was a surprise.

Summary
What is it they always say when they get stuck in some dank underground place on a wild goose chase after mythical treasures? “The only way out is through”? Maybe that applies to telling your best friends you’ve been in love with them for fifteen years, too.
Riley really, really hates when the only way out is through.
(or, it took the gates family three generations to find the templar treasure. what’s fifteen years of hiding the fact that you’re in love with your best friends, compared to that?)
