She Believed She Could, So She Did...
"You know, you're practically drooling, right?" Marlow said with amusement as she watched her friend, Astrid, stare down with bright, excited eyes at the book she had brought from her grandpa's collection as though the book was the Grimoire, also known as a “book of spells.”

The Dreamer
She always knew she was different from everyone else. People around her were automatically set to move away even when all she did was enter a room full of people. The conversations would turn subdued, and everyone would steal furtive glances at her. She didn't think she was all that special or noteworthy, but apparently, everyone around her thought she was. She had developed an appreciation for what the women in Salem during the Witch Trials must have felt like. Not that she was a witch.

Alex The Inventor - Chapter 12 (Pt.3)
Chapter 12 (Part 3): Finders Keepers and a Simple Plan The little snub-nosed electric taxi pulled up in front of the Faraways' house half an hour later and Alex hopped out as soon as the robot car popped its window open and raised the two passenger seats high enough for them to climb out. After wishing the two of them a good night, and waiting an appropriate amount of time for them to enter their house, the polite little car sped away into the night to take another call. Dinner was a simple meal of potatoes, rice, and peas, with a surprise apple pie dessert from Rosie's. Elizabeth was still feeling very tired from the over-night stay at the hospital, but Alex was fidgety and very impatient. You've had a nice restful stay at the hospital, I see, Elizabeth thought, ruefully. Washing the dishes was a rather noisy event with Alex jumping from one foot to the other with youthful impatience, then all but snatching each plate from her hand as she handed it to him. Clatter. Crash. Clatter, crashed each dish as he gave them a quick wipe then tossed them carelessly here and there into whichever free space he could find.

Review of 'The Rook' 1.4
The best episode of The Rook—1.4—was on last night, in which we find out lots of stuff about Myfanwy. First and foremost: she knew that Bristol had something important to do with her forgotten past. She thought it was the city (and it's a nice city, one of my favorites in England, after London), but it turns out to have been the name of her shrink. And as soon as they meet in this episode, in the present, it's crystal clear (to the audience, if not yet to Myfanwy) that they were having an affair. Her earlier self has left her a note, in Bristol's possession (which he gives to her now) that tells her to run if she's in Bristol's presence.

You Must Get Out
Characters: Tusra and Anastra. As soon as they left the presence of the King and Queen, Anastra ran away from Tusra, feeling blood trickle down her face. Tusra tried to chase her, but he stopped as he felt like she needed the time to herself. He entered his room and closed the door behind him. Taking his half-moon monocle off, he slide down the door and sobbed. He had never seen the King so angry that he actually lashed out at Anastra before. He hit her with some force with the speed she fell back into him. There wasn’t a damn thing he could do about it. Laying his head back onto the door, Tusra let the tear roll down his face as he thought of a way out for the Princess. There must be some loophole for her.
