Summary
Jason doesn’t scare easy. But the worst part about being drugged, manipulated, and used as a weapon isn’t the toxin in his veins. It’s how easy it feels to stop fighting. And Bruce would rather face a hundred bombs than see his son look peaceful that way.
What It Means
To mollify someone is to make them less angry. Mollify can also mean "to reduce in intensity."
// The celebrity's statement was intended to mollify critics.
// Time mollified her anger.

The story behind these lines from There’s a Bird in the Alleyway
“[T]he working girls who saved your life said you’ve done some stuff to help them out. Your gentlemanly ways are impressing them.”
“I don’t know if punching a creep in the face counts as being gentlemanly.”

"I feel fine," Kon says, breathing deeply. He leans towards Tim and takes an even deeper, longer breath. "I feel really, really good, actually. And you smell—you smell really good."

Summary
Phainon is a man possessed. Eyes wild and unfocused, face stained with tears and ash. He blinks, shock flooding his features, and tries to step back, but Mydei holds the sword firmly.
Mydei sighs. “Found you….”
Phainon shakes his head. “No. No, please,” he whispers, voice raw.
Mydei reaches a hand out, but stops as Phainon flinches back. Cautiously, he says, “Phainon, it’s alright, you need—”
“Not him.” Phainon lets go of his sword. It slides off of Mydei’s pauldron and falls to the ground with a thump. “Not him too, please,” Phainon begs. “Please.”
Or, Mydei suffers fiercely in the fight against Nikador, but eventually Strife falls. An Heir must take up the Flame. Mydei’s fear of taking up that mantle, of leading his people down the wrong path, is assuaged by Phainon stepping up to take the Coreflame of Strife. So why can Mydei not sleep? What haunts Phainon’s strength of will, and can Mydei save him from it?
Or, missing scenes from after the battle with Nikador, and an alternative take on the Trials of Strife in 3.1.
