Summary
Our Lady of the Passion intensely, furiously regrets every life choice that landed her here. Here on the backward, miserable, fucking freezing rock her Aunty died on, thumb up her arse, while the zombies fix their pet lich. Stuck in the cunt end of the universe waiting for Aim’s fucking dog to pick the perfect patch of slimy cave wall to fucking piss on.
In which Pash and Noodle have an unusual interaction with a mysterious (?) monster.

Summary
Dr. Kiramman steers her through the chaos and plants her in a chair. Does something to her arm that hurts like fuck, then drapes her in bags of ice and wraps her in a sling. Blinds her with a pen light—“Called it,” she mumbles when he confirms she’s concussed—and presses two pills and a warm mug into her hand. It smells herbaceous. Familiar.
“I brought the good stuff from home,” Dr. Kiramman confesses, and it takes her a moment to understand he means tea. “Extra honey for you. I know you haven’t acquired the taste.”
He’s right in that she only actually drank it once, the first time it was offered—the afternoon they spoke to the Council, several lifetimes ago. But she tasted it just this morning in Caitlyn’s mouth, grassy and sweet. So she pops the pills and takes a sip. Tries not to think about whether that terrified kiss over breakfast was their last. “I want to see her.”
After the war, Vi and Cait recover, and rebuild.

Summary
There’s a new kind of quiet between them, after Gideon inveigles her into the oath. Muffled and close, like sitting in her bed at home with the curtains drawn all round, even as they traverse the twisted hallways of Canaan House. Like everything outside of them, outside the sphere of space encompassing their bodies walking abreast, exists in some other reality to the one where Gideon’s lips touched her glabella. Where Gideon’s robes brush hers now as they move. Where Gideon’s hand, still chilled from the water, finds Harrowhark’s just long enough to tug her off course.
“Our rooms are this way,” Harrow protests.
Gideon tugs again, lightly, before releasing her. “I’m hungry.”

Summary
In the two years since killing Harrow’s parents, Gideon had given up on pleading, arguing, and bullying Ortus into helping her compose impassioned financial recommendations for her release from servitude. Instead, she’d channeled her efforts into eight discrete attempts to escape—and today would be the ninth. An omen, certainly, though in whose favor remained to be seen.

Summary
Either Harrowhark Nonagesimus was a murderer, and so might return to that gruesome scene for cleanup, or she was good (but getting worse all the time) at disguising genuine concern for her cavalier and had slunk off to investigate the growing threat in secret.
Or she might be literally anywhere else in this benighted ruin, but best start somewhere.
How did Cam get Harrow into those handcuffs?
