‘He was incandescent when he stopped holding himself back.

‘Before Kadou could speak, Evemer shifted from sitting before him to kneeling. He took Kadou's hands, pressing his forehead to the backs of them as he had been aching to do. It filed his heart with light to be allowed even just this.‘

“Don’t tease him,” Kadou said quietly
“He won’t tease you back, so it’s not fair.”

“I’m fine”
“Of course you are, love. Of course you are. Just another close call to keep old Eozena on her toes, eh?”

"It’s very hard being grown-up like this, isn't it?" she said bitterly. "I wish we could just go have a slap-fight in the garden like we did when we were children”

‘Kadou had been... resplendent. He'd moved like nothing Evemer had ever seen, like a rip current, like a tidal wave. Kadou. His liege. Evemer realized he was gawking and shook himself.
The lightning running through him did not abate.’

‘It was a very, very poor joke, and Evemer wasn’t going to even smile at it. He wasn’t.’

‘Evemer had to excuse himself to his room to absolutely boil with confusion.’

‘An instant later, a heartbeat later, Evemer was flat on his back, staring up at a strip of starry sky framed by the buildings on either side of the alley.’

‘Evemer wasn't quite sure what had happened. His face hurt.
"Who do you think I am?" His Highness said calmly.’

lmaooooooo

“And yet I am called to conflict. The leaves must fall in autumn, that the tree may bud again in spring. This is my part.”

‘I’d have you rot in every one of the seven hells for what you’ve done to me’

‘This place is my might-have-been. It’s my almost-was. It’s my never-will-be.’

:(((

‘The Bibliotek is everything I dreamed it would be.’

‘My sister’s always a little softer when she’s dancing with her wife, and the pair of them fit perfectly together.’
