Summary
It's late at night or early in the morning when Mia finally calls, that time when the sky is bright-dark navy and bespeckled with stars, and the earth is still quietly sleeping below.
"Jayden?"
"Mia."
"Hey." There's a pause, just enough space for a breath. "Come get me?"
–
Mia needs a ride. Jayden doesn't ask questions.

Summary
Neo has come to accept the uncertain superposition of his identity just as he's come to accept that this world both is and isn't real, just as he's learned to navigate Thomas' real-world real-life real-real job even when the static in his vision and memory-storage errors and glitches and bugs are always there beneath the surface, a program running in the background. Simultaneous, dual-processing. He gets good at holding two things at once inside his head: Thomas and Neo, Real and Unreal, True and False.
-
Neo, on navigating transgenderism, intimate relationships, and identity through a psychotic psyche.

Summary
"Please," Loki gasps, staring at Bartleby's arm, his hands gripping the sides of the chair, knuckles going white.
"And here you were so against it," Bartleby says, voice edged with a minute manic mirth. He takes a deep breath, and then, even and serious: "Do you trust me?"
Loki, too, needs a second to collect himself. He swallows hard. "Yes."
Bartleby's hand pulls back, then swiftly stabs the knife into Loki's gut.
-
Bartleby goes people-watching and comes back with a few ideas.

Summary
“It’s just about practice,” David says slowly. “And I can give you that.”
“What do you mean?” Michael asks. He’s turned back to face David. A promising sign.
“I mean, you can practice. On me.” He bares his teeth, bites at the empty air, and turns it into a winning smile. Angles his face to the side and jerks a thumb at his own neck. “Maybe it’ll help, to get a feel for it first. Might make the real thing easier.”
“Yeah, right,” Michael says unsteadily. “It’s your blood that got me into this mess in the first place.”
His eyes are locked on David’s neck, though. David can see his throat working as he swallows hard. There’re the logical objections, and then there’s what even the mention of blood can conjure up for them. Logic doesn’t really stand a chance.
“So what’s the harm in a little more?” David says casually.
