Summary
Booker often felt like all the fun had been taken out of magic by the time he was born. No blood rituals or alchemic experiments, no demonic summoning or angelic translations, just endless treatises on astrology, countless books on herbal magic, and pamphlets on helpful household spells for housewives and governesses. The only magical practice that really had any sort of edge when he was learning was spiritualism, but even that field seemed to be made of equal parts true practitioners and hoaxers. Where it not for his Sight and his good fortune at falling in with Andy’s group, Booker is sure his life would have been spent stuck in the tedium of modern household magic.

Summary
“Oh, let it go, Joe.” He mutters, face pulling into a tired grimace. “I’m fine.” Joe frowns, but lowers his hands and settles them gently on Nicky’s hips instead. Nicky shifts his weight, hands braced on the counter behind them for balance. Joe wants to lean in and kiss him, run a hand through his hair and hold him close, but fights against that instinct and keeps his hands where they are. He knows that Nicky has never been one to be fussed over, despite Joe’s never-ending desire to try and do just that.

Summary
Distinct from the other sounds of the front lines - a quick, high whistle sounds in the air that can only mean one thing. Yusuf can hear Nicoló's sudden inhale, an attempt to yell out a warning before an artillery shell slams into the ground between them.

Summary
Rubbing a hand across his face, Nicoló sighs and takes another drink.
He never knows what to do with those feelings when they come. They don’t bubble up often, maybe once every few years. A mission gone poorly is usually what triggers them, but in cases like tonight, it sometimes comes from nowhere. It hits him like a wave, swelling up from his feet and crashing through his chest with all the force of the sea. Worry for his family, worry over their future, worry about anything and everything.
