“Impressive deduction,鈥� Ryan murmured. 鈥淵ou certainly look deeper than most.鈥� He brushed back a strand of my hair, and I screwed my eyes shut. He was doing this on purpose. 鈥淏ut let me give you some advice.鈥� His lips were right next to my ear. 鈥淚 wouldn鈥檛 peer too far. Even the clearest window can cast back your own reflection.”

“As she began to speak she stood and started to wrap herself, expertly, creating a binding in minutes that held without a wrinkle until the show ended.

“So why hadn鈥檛 he confronted me? Why hadn鈥檛 he torn through my lies and forced me to own up that I鈥檇 caught him in a Binding? It wasn鈥檛 like he could just brush this off. And that smile before he left, as if he鈥檇 been pulling my leg to see my reaction鈥�
I shook my head. Ryan was certainly providing his fair share of riddles. There was the tiny possibility he was still clueless and was just teasing me, but I doubted anyone could be that na茂ve. Even him. My mind began to tick over, desperate for an answer. Only one other thing stuck out in his behaviour. Maybe he was going for a fair exchange strategy. He wouldn鈥檛 question my secrets, in the hope I wouldn鈥檛 question his.
Now that was na茂ve.”

“My heart almost vaulted out of my chest. I was snuggled against Ryan鈥檚 shoulder. We were burrowed under the cloak and sleeping bag, and my hand rested on his cheek, about to swat the stray hair that had fallen over my face. This wouldn鈥檛 have been so bad, if not for one tiny detail.
Ryan was awake.”

“Adam glanced at me. His grin was back. I鈥檇 forgotten how easily he could wind me up.
鈥淵ou know, Eliza,鈥� he said, 鈥渕aybe you鈥檙e missing something here.鈥�
鈥淵ou鈥檙e going to be missing a few teeth if you don鈥檛 explain yourself,鈥� I growled.”

“I remained silent, adrift in a torrent of mixed feelings. The Binding urged me to curl up in his embrace, to lose myself in his scent and surrender to his lips again; however, my own thoughts begged me to turn away. I didn鈥檛 know what to do. I couldn鈥檛 deny there was something between Ryan and me, but what? It was the curse!
It had always been the curse鈥�”

“Ryan, if you abandon me here, I will have no choice but to tell your father,鈥� Navinka cut in. 鈥淵ou don鈥檛 want Aronzo and his men prowling after you again.鈥� She gave a stretch. 鈥淚 can inform Lord Glenford we are joining my father in Dragonvale. The East Pass is a safe route. He will not insist on sending a further escort.鈥� She flashed a deadly smile. 鈥淚 can make your life easier or more difficult. I leave the choice to you.”

“The relation between binding and consciousness is less clear. Neurocognitive binding surely affects the character of Umweltian consciousness and may be a necessary condition for it. Whether binding provides sufficient conditions for subjectivity in Umweltian or even more basic forms is not evident. In theory, neurocognitive binding and phenomenological binding could come apart - this would be implied, for example, by evidence that bound representations are sometimes formed outside of subjective experience. One possibility is that binding may not be sufficient for phenomenal consciousness unless it also includes affective content that projects meaning onto objects and events, then bound representations that lack affective content would fail to generate conscious experience. It could be, for instance, that bound representations are formed by the synchronous firing of distributed neural systems that specialize in different features of the scene, but that this bound representation must then be made accessible to the wider system for memory, categorization, and affective response if it is to become part of the stream of consciousness. And if this is so, then information integration would not be sufficient to generate subjectivity. Although much of this picture remains opaque, work on binding is providing the first glimpse of how the Umwelt was made.”

“Do you realize that our humanity creates an irresistible point of connection that cannot be severed despite how much we assail it with our fabricated divisions, our differing opinions, the neighborhoods that we live in, or the color of our skin. And if I dare to touch your humanity despite all of the differences that our worlds might thrust between us, I will live with the knowledge that the souls of two people are powerful enough to breech the differences of a million worlds.”

“Two steps forward and one step back is still progress, binding us to stronger stuff. People can tell you all day long that you鈥檙e strong. What鈥檚 more helpful to hear is, use your strength.
That鈥檚 the step forward, stabilized.”

“Most binds involve metaphors, emotions, feelings, human qualities. Thus, the binds mostly prompt us to be rational, push us to decide one way or another, to declare when something is wrong or good; this reflexive spark is generated by a bind. Reasoning is a secondary process, and exists only to reinforce the initial bind.”
