    All For One: Chimera

    Thanks for the notes! I see Armsmaster as a rule-oriented, slightly socially stunted guy. He's stiff and literal more than hopelessly awkward, so I'll keep that in mind for his scenes.

    Threadmarks: 1.4 Insomnia

    The fever broke at four in the morning, all at once. Greg woke soaked in sweat in a hospital bed, with his mom asleep in the chair beside him and his dad asleep standing up against the wall. His hands didn't hurt. He held them up in the gray light from the window and turned them over. Smooth...

    Threadmarks: Interlude 1.1: Subject C

    From a black notebook kept in the back of a desk drawer, under a stack of old school papers. The handwriting is small and neat. Some words are crossed out so hard the pen has gone through. January 3rd, 2011. 11:48 p.m. Not writing this in the official file. Writing it here so I stop thinking...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 4: The Hidden Ember

    He didn't get a moment alone until the middle of the afternoon. The house filled with neighbours as soon as word got round, which in Yuhuo took about as long as walking from the barn to the lane. They brought an egg, a twist of salt, a handful of dried dates the old woman next door had...

    Threadmarks: 2.1 — The Hero Who Asked Too Many Questions

    The letter came on Tuesday, addressed to his mom. Greg found it on the kitchen table when he got home, already opened, lying on top of the electric bill like it had been put there to be found. Heavy paper. A blue PRT ENE crest in the corner, the one with the stylized wave. He read it standing...

    Threadmarks: 1.3 Surface Injuries Only

    Amy Dallon had been awake for nineteen hours and on shift for twelve of them, and she was eating peanut butter crackers out of the fourth-floor vending machine when Dr. Hadley found her. "Panacea." He was out of breath. He'd taken the stairs, so he wanted something. "We need you in Emergency."...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 3: Heavenfall

    Yuhuo's village hall was a barn with ambitions. Somebody had swept it out for the occasion and nailed a strip of red cloth over the door, which was the most decoration Lin Jin had seen in six years of village life. The floor was packed earth. Light came through the gaps in the plank walls and...

    Threadmarks: 1.8 — The Missing Crown

    Lung knew before he woke. He had been many things. A boy in Kyushu, a weapon, a king. In all of them he had slept the same way, deeply, the way a thing sleeps when there is nothing left that it fears. He had never needed to keep watch in his sleep, because the watch was kept for him. Under...

    Threadmarks: 1.7 — Improvised Monster

    By Thursday, Greg had a list of things that set the engine off. He kept it in a paper notebook, because the laptop felt like somewhere the fly could read it. It was titled STIMULI, which he thought showed restraint, and by Thursday it said: Toaster (twice). Dog on Aldgate (large). Dog on...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 2: The Sixth Year

    His sister arrived in the middle of a thunderstorm, which Lin Jin felt was a bit much. He was four. He had been sent next door to the old woman's house, the one who still called him "the soap scholar", and told to sit still and stay out of the way. He sat still for about an hour. Then the...

    Threadmarks: 1.2 Something Rotten at Winslow

    He was on his feet before he'd decided anything. The granola bar went into his pocket. His bag stayed on the step. He took the stairs down two at a time, quiet on the balls of his feet, the way you came down into a catacomb when you didn't know what was waiting at the bottom. The fire door at...
