Summary
Lucien wasn’t stupid; he had few delusions regarding his utility. He had real skills, even if they were more suited to a court than a battlefield. His greatest skill was realizing that he was something like a carving knife, or a set of locksmith’s tools. Inert by themselves, they could accomplish many things under the guidance of a craftsman.
Beron didn’t know how to use him, so he rusted. Tamlin picked him up, cleansed him in vinegar, whetted his edge, made him shining, sharp, and new again.

Summary
“You need me to fuck that mood outa you?”
Rust’s fingers tighten a little around his pen, but he doesn’t look up. “Sex is a chemical prank the body plays on the mind,” he says, and ashes his cigarette.
“Yeah, fine,” Marty says, “but do you want some.”
