    Summary

    There hadn’t been a whole lot of tape, back then, not on a bunch of kids who were likely to get chewed up and spit out by the KHL, but Rozanov was a special case – his agent had clearly known his aim was for North American leagues, and there’d been a few tapes leaked here and there of the fourteen, fifteen, sixteen year old phenom who had more trick plays up his sleeve than Yuna, personally, thought was true hockey. The video of his spin on the Michigan had made the rounds in David’s McGill email chain, and Yuna had tipped her chin up and sworn up and down he’d be a one-trick pony who’d be flat on his ass the first time he tried that shit in the pros.

    Shane had downloaded the video to his desktop and studied the tape like he did old games of Scott Hunter.

    Yuna Hollander works through years of memories in attempt to discover when she should have known her son didn't trust her with all of himself.

    Summary

    Every saga comes to an end. The last runesign carved, the final silver-tongued phrase spoken, the closing breath let out from victorious lungs as a hero's story closes.

    But those sagas do not always finish with high glory and soaring, glittering death. Sometimes the end is quiet, a contented sigh or the whisper of a loving touch brushing across very, very tired shoulders.

    Sometimes our heroes live for a while yet—afterwards.

    Summary

    In interropunct's immortal words: "Jaskier gets bitten by a rabid animal. Then poisoned. Then injected with strange and horrifying concoctions. No one is happy about any of this."

    And then, afterwards, things start looking up.

    Summary

    When Frank can't get rid of Matt Murdock's suicidally stupid train wreck of a twin brother, he does the next best thing: take him on an extended, cross-country road trip where they commit some murders, steal some money, and might even go on a real vacation.

    Of course, Matt never really had a twin brother.
