The boy had tried to stone the crows, but they just caught the rocks with beaks.
“I shall train them to stone the child/wren back,” she thought.

Oh, so you need prompting now?: Æ asks me.
And, promptly: I deadpan.
Someone is playing for Team Sensitive today: Æ smiles.
I grin: Fecking captain. And, the fact that you love me like this pisses me off.
Æ counters: You’re more entertaining than when in your mystæ provocateur state.
Dickhead: I think, stinging from the blow.
Every time with you: Æ thinks, reading my mind, laughing.

Hold my hands so they become held(,) dear.
Silversmiths of alchemists gatekeeping access to backrooms of bazaars thick with smoke.
A misty haze formed by fast talk and subtle exchanges.
Quicksilver traded for the mercurial.
Where those who do not wear thier darkness on thier sleeves abscond to let thier absence of light shine.
A speak easy of sly shadow souls and sacred fools that is only found by not looking.
Defy the beast, release.
