Summary
Tim curled into Jonny's arms, leaning into him.
Jonny smiled to himself, pulling Tim a bit closer.
Tim rested his forehead on Jonny's shoulder, and Jonny knew he was laughing.
Not by the sound, but by the fact he could feel it. The slight shake of laughter so different from a terrified tremble.
He was happy, sitting here. Happy with Tim. Happy on Aurora. Happy.Tim and Jonny talk. Jonny gets emotional because he's happy, and that's new. Then tim reveals Ashes is probably going to kill him later, and tries to rope Jonny into being a diversion.

Summary
His living heart had hurt, and the new one felt strange: he could feel the clockwork and the gears in his chest where there had once been nothing but messily squeezing muscle, and at that first tickticktick he felt the sick swooping rightness of it so strongly that every moment on either side of it went white with euphoria.
Linear memory's overrated, anyway.

Summary
If there was one thing Nastya's kid brother didn't need, it was to be told that he was a god. But here he was, wrapped in dark leather with makeup lines of black lightning spiderwebbing across his face, surrounded by a massive crowd of worshipful enablers.
(Every ninety years eight gods return as young people. They are loved. They are hated. In two years, they are all dead. It's happening now. It's happening again.)
