Summary
“With you it’s always ‘Father this’, ‘Father that’.” Gianna sniffed. “It’s an obnoxious habit. Very childish. Act your age.”
“Oh? And trying to interrupt a stranger about his business isn’t obnoxious?”
“You’re such an asshole,” Gianna said, incredulous. “I can’t believe you said that. We’re trying to save a life.”
“If you were remotely interested in charity of that nature you wouldn’t be in the family business.”
The stranger was staring at them now, blinking owlishly. It wasn’t an unfamiliar reaction to anyone exposed to his sister and their quarrels. “Do you guys mind?” he said finally. His voice was rusty, seldom used.

Summary
He didn’t look away this time. Usually he reserved eye contact for the last moments. To determine if a target was going to resist or give in. His gaze was very direct, he had been told. Off-putting.

“The flower is supposed to be a sign of affection, yes?” Kat said. “So when it rots, what kind of message does that send? You tore something away from its body, its home, shipped it off as a trophy of love, and let it rot. Not my idea of romance.”

Summary
Izzy Hands, a 90s heartthrob turned casting director with an impressively average back catalogue, never foresaw his career trajectory bringing him back to television. He certainly never would've guessed that his big return would be on Strictly Come Dancing. At least it breaks the monotony, even if he's paired with the insufferable twat, the Gentleman of the Ballroom.
It's the kind of fast-paced environment that Izzy was sure he'd long-since grown out of, and he's sure he's not going to make it past the first few weeks. Still, the more he finds himself enjoying it, the more he hopes he'll stay, and he finds himself more in love with life than he's been in years.
Still, the talk of the curse puts Izzy on edge. Bonnet is strangely captivating and seems more interested in Izzy than Edward has in years. Izzy may not believe in them, but that's the thing about curses: once they take hold...
