Summary
Philip ‘tsks’ and hands him a napkin. “It’s just mass, love. Nothing to get so worked up about.”
He doesn’t dignify that with a response until he’s mostly cleaned up. “Now, dear,” he says carefully, “if you want to go, you are more than welcome to do so. I, however, will be at home with Jelly watching our baking show.” He narrows his eyes. “Why do you want to go?”
“Curiosity mostly,” Philip says mildly. “I’ve heard so much about your priest in Chimney Rock. Why not pop in for a visit?”
Blanc sets his mouth in a firm, thin line and begins the spiel Philip hears every Easter. “It is an institution built on racism, misogyny, homophobia—“
“—traits you’ve been very clear Father Jud does not possess—“
“—you are being intentionally difficult—“
Philip huffs. “Love, I’m not asking you to convert. I just simply am feeling a little nostalgic for my choir boy days.”
“Then you go.”
“You two could catch up,” Philip points out, completely sidestepping his argument. “What’s he been up to since the murder?” For the second time, Blanc is left dumb. His husband waits a moment before quirking an eyebrow. “You haven’t kept in contact,” he more surmises than asks.

Summary
St. Jude Thaddeus: Catholic patron saint of desperate situations, hopeless cases, and lost causes
Jud periodically has this dream where he’s in a car that’s hurtling down the highway, weaving in between cars and swerving at sharp angles. He’s speeding towards an inevitable fiery crash. The obvious solution is to stop and try and gain control of the vehicle, but there’s a truck barreling behind him and he’s keeping ahead of it by a hair. Slowing down at all means an instant, devastating impact.
In this dream, he tries every solution he can think of. If he stops, the truck hits him. If he keeps going, he hits the median. He dies either way. Each way of dying is equally agonizing. He bleeds out while the car burns around him or he breaks his neck and punctures a lung, laying paralyzed while his lungs fill with blood.
The irony is that he’s at peace. No matter his decision, the end is the same. It used to frustrate him, but now there’s a serenity of things being out of his hands.
He’d told Langstrom as much before the man went to Rome and his face screwed up. “That’s not what I meant by surrender, Jud,” he’d chided.Bookmarked by LR00

Summary
"Stop that," Wednesday says, leaning forward to pluck the lit cigarette from Enid's mouth. She flicks it perfectly, pristinely, into the nearest wastebin. "There are better things to do with your mouth."
"That's a fire hazard!" Enid objects, too quickly, too nervously, as something in her chest tugs. Seeing this taken from her, too.
And then, what Wednesday just said properly hits her. "Wait, what?"
Enid smokes occasionally. This bothers Wednesday, for reasons she struggles to pin down.

Summary
His father had told him to focus on the domains he’d been neglecting, so that was what Apollo was doing. Not the ones he was sure his father had meant, and definitely not for the reasons his father had in mind.
