Re: Falling like Leaves

Re: Viva la Revolution
Nathaniel gave me—the actual me, not my body—a look that bordered on reprimanding and panicked. I glared back. It wasn't like it was my fault that he picked up on ...

Re: Viva la Revolution

Re: Falling like Leaves

Re: Viva la Revolution
We entered the doctor's office. I wasn't used to formal offices like this one before. Usually, when we got hurt, Asmira played medic. Before then, the only doctor I had ...

Re: Falling like Leaves

Re: Viva la Revolution
This wasn't like the London I had grown up in. I had no way of knowing for certain, but it wasn't like Nathaniel's, either. Both of us had come from ...
