    Summary

    “Look at me,” Olruggio says. He puts a hand to Qifrey’s cheek. The eye shudders and drags, but it finds his gaze. Olruggio beams. His mouth is trembling. “This is important,” he stresses. “I think I know how to save you, Qifrey. I just need to know if you can see me.”

    Another slow and sluggish blink, and then a motion so small it could barely be called a nod. Barely was enough. “I can,” Qifrey murmurs. “For now.”

    “Good.” Olruggio’s voice cracks. He keeps his smile, even as his eyes sting. “Keep looking at me. Don’t turn away for even a second. I think I know how to take this peace from you for a long, long time.”

    Summary

    “Since you and your friend did not enter for a collaborative display, what you did technically counts as interfering with another applicant's display – an argument can be made to consider it sabotage. Do you understand what I mean, Miss Agott?”

    Or, a hilltop conversation about the legal implications of Agott helping Coco in the middle of her display.

    Summary

    His fright at the thought that Coco might have been in danger when he woke up was heart-stopping. The feeling he had when he thought he’d forgotten one of the simplest spells in his collection was….something else. Like a vice around his throat. A garotte of terror.

    Olruggio can't claim to be the picture of perfect health and wellbeing, but things are getting strange. He's forgetting stuff - stuff that he really shouldn't be forgetting. And he doesn't know why.
