“When the ashes of the wildfire of love have been scattered in the hazy den of oblivion and emotions have gone out of commission, life gets unremittingly tangled up, if no inner voices emerge to enlighten the looming shadows of hesitant expectations, if no shimmer sparks the magic appeal of 鈥楤eing in the world鈥�. ("Fish for silence." )”

“His sister liked to think of herself as Lord Tywin with teats, but she was wrong. Their father had been as relentless and implacable as a glacier, where Cercei was all wildfire, especially when thwarted.”

“Now Rogan had to show up.
The word of his previous failure to appear must鈥檝e spread, because the entire family found their way to the kitchen one by one. Bern was reading a textbook in the corner. Grandma Frida sat next to me and attempted to knit something that was probably a scarf but looked like a brilliant attempt at a Gordian knot. My mother rearranged the tea drawer, which she鈥檚 never done since we鈥檝e had one. Arabella sat across from me, her gaze glued to her cell phone. Catalina sat on my left, texting furiously. Zeus lounged under the table by my feet, and Cornelius was drinking tea across the table. Even Leon wandered in and leaned against the wall, waiting.

Nobody was talking.

鈥淛ust out of curiosity,鈥� Cornelius said, 鈥渋f Rogan doesn鈥檛 arrive, will all of you skin him alive?鈥�

鈥淵es,鈥� everyone except me said at the same time.

I sighed.”

“[Rynda] fell silent, then glanced at Bug. 鈥淐ould you get me some coffee?鈥�

鈥淣o,鈥� Bug said.

She blinked.

鈥淚鈥檓 a surveillance specialist, not a waiter,鈥� Bug said, his diction perfect, his voice flat. 鈥淭he coffee is on the kitchen counter over there. Help yourself.鈥�

She opened her mouth and closed it.

鈥淣evada?鈥� Bug said.

Don鈥檛 do it, don鈥檛 do it . . .

鈥淲ould you like some coffee?鈥�

鈥淣o, thanks.鈥� Ass.

鈥淏ecause I鈥檒l totally get it for you.鈥�

Rynda got up and walked to the kitchen counter, glancing in Rogan鈥檚 direction for a moment.

鈥淵ou鈥檙e being cruel,鈥� I murmured.

鈥淪ue me,鈥� Bug whispered back.”

“You鈥檙e wasting my time,鈥� I said. 鈥淛ust say everyone I know and love is dead. It鈥檚 more efficient.鈥�

He laughed quietly. 鈥淵ou鈥檙e mouthy.鈥�
鈥淎nd you鈥檙e a psychopath.鈥�

鈥淵ou say it like it鈥檚 a bad thing. It鈥檚 practically a requirement for people in our position.鈥�

鈥淵es, well, David Howling did it better.鈥�

鈥淩ogan won鈥檛 always be there to do your dirty work.鈥�

鈥淩ogan didn鈥檛 kill David. I did. He fought me for his life and lost. The next time we meet I鈥檒l pull every dirty secret out of your mind and lay them out in the open. When I鈥檓 done, you鈥檒l curl into a ball and weep, just like all the others. That鈥檚 how you threaten, Vincent.”

“Tendrils of jarring orange tainted the heavens,
warped into tattered remnants of distorted nebulas, the antithetical sunset thrown into macabre shadows of disarray until it became whole, but always broken, a growing mass that rushed sickeningly nearer, as I stared in horrified disbelief through the screen glass door in our living room.”
― Gina Marinello-Sweeney, Peter

“So many stories about disaster close the curtain before you see what happens
afterward. Especially in this era of catastrophe, we can always distract
ourselves with the next fire, the next flood, the next tragedy鈥攔ide
the crest of the drama without asking what happens in the years after
a place burns. But it seemed especially important to me to understand
what makes it possible for people to recover in this era of more common
disasters.”

“I deeply sympathize with the American people during this tragic time, as the natural disasters and wildfires you're facing are heartbreaking. But have you ever stopped to consider that countless others around the world face similar suffering even worse every day鈥攕uffering caused by your government鈥檚 actions and decisions? The leaders you've chosen are responsible for the destruction of millions of homes, dropping thousands of bombs from Iraq to Palestine, from Africa to Bosnia. While you endure your own hardship, it鈥檚 crucial to recognize the pain inflicted on others by the very power structures you support. The time has come to confront these realities, demand accountability, and acknowledge the global consequences of your nation's choices." As now may you understand the pain how it's feel to see your own house burning ”
