    Summary

    He tries not to look, he really does, but some of his eyes struggle open to meet whatever Queen Mother has planned before she forces his face to the table, too. In this corner of the room seems to be a litany of creatures - smaller than him and several of the other treasure hunters, but large enough to be used.

    Taliesin said that August had the moth stitched to him after complaining after falling in pursuit of an artefact. This is my interpretation of that

    Summary

    Odd little gifts show up in August’s top hat. August doesn't know why, he's never been worth gifts before. Skreev thinks differently.

    What it says on the tin.

    --

    Based on this conversation from AUx07:

    SNYX: Okay.
    BRIXTON: And it's her [Damask Queen Farrah's] birthday.
    SNYX: It is her birthday.
    BRIXTON: Yeah.
    SNYX: That's really sweet.
    BRIXTON: It is very sweet. I don't think I've ever celebrated a birthday.
    SNYX: All right.
    MISTY: I don't even know what they are.
    BRIXTON: Yeah.
    SNYX: If we get through this, we should all celebrate our birthdays.
    IDYL: Yeah, it's a great idea.

    Summary

    August stays quiet throughout dinner, signaling that he’d like to take watch with just a simple nod. He manages a smile for Misty, a gentle reassurance that he’s fine, that his head is just too busy for sleep at the moment, as it often is, and declines her offer of staying up with him. He pretends that his coat still needs mending until everyone is asleep, then puts aside his needle and thread, placing his head in his hands.

    “Do you want to talk about it?”

    The words are shadow given sound, and if his time in the Hive hadn’t taught August that silence and stillness meant safety, he might have shouted and lashed out at the voice before realizing it was Skreev.

    August’s moth hisses, wings fluttering.

    “I wasn’t asking you, Mister Fuzzy.”

    Summary

    August is used to people needing to get used to him, and to them finding him difficult to look at and difficult to be around. Adelia and Skreev don’t have that problem at all.

    Summary

    The thing about having six hands is that you can do many things at once. Even as August weaves the ends of the necklace together around Violet’s neck, one of his upper hands rubs at his mouth, pressing hard against remembered pain. The scars there are too old to be seen unless you know what to look for, but August can feel the faint divots under his fingers. 

    “Adelia, who sewed Violet’s mouth shut?”

    Summary

    “What are you going to make?” Misty’s voice is as soft as it can be, sand whispering over stone.

    “You’ll see.” August looks around before letting his two other pairs of arms emerge through the cleverly disguised holes in his coat. A day ago, he wouldn’t have dared reveal himself out in the open like this. However, that had been before a good portion of the settlement had seen him fly and weave spells. Besides, few people are awake and out on the paths, and those few aren’t near enough to the sad remains of the Pyre and the bloody ashes that stain the ground to see either August or Misty, not in the low light of his spark. “At least, I hope you will. I haven’t done this in…. a very long time.”
