After transmigrating into the flood apocalypse Chapter 15: Rule Two
"You're not speaking to him," said Molly."I'm speaking to him.""You said 'pass the salt' with your eyes shut.""I was tired.""You have been tired for three days, Nora. It's very suspicious. You haven't called me your friend, you haven't made a single joke, and you've started writing lists in the margins. Biscuit thinks you're plotting a murder.""I'm plotting a boat," I said."It looks like a murder."We were standing at the edge of the cavern lake at Greyspire, in the cold dusk light that filtered through the ridge, watching Marl and his brothers hammer the ribs of a very large, very ugly wooden hull. It had been going up for six days. It looked like a barn. It looked like a barn that had been told it was a ship and had not believed it."It's the ugliest boat I have ever seen," said Molly, with feeling."It's not meant to be pretty.""It looks like a very large coffin.""Well… It's meant to float.""It looks like it might sink and take us all down for company.""Molly.”"I'm only

"Psst."I ignored it."Psst. Nora."I kept walking. It was dusk, and I was crossing the Academy gardens with a basket of grain samples under one arm, a peacock in my collar, and a headache the size of the Dragon Spire. I had spent the afternoon avoiding four Imperial guards, one Inspector, and a boy named Wyatt who had stopped talking to me but kept looking at me, like a man doing a very long sum.I did not have time for a hissing hedge."Nora Wells. I know you can hear me.""I can hear you," I said, without turning. "I'm choosing not to.""That is extremely rude.""So is breaking into my room and stealing my pills."A pause."That was a long time ago," said the hedge."It was thirteen days ago.""It feels like a long time."I stopped. I sighed. I turned around.A glossy black snake with golden eyes was coiled on a low stone bench, looking at me the way a cat looks at a mouse that has just made a joke."Jax," I said."Nora.""What do you want?""A conversation." He lifted his head. "A
After transmigrating into the flood apocalypse Chapter 13: Wyatt Frost
The new student arrived at breakfast with a wolf the size of a pony and the personality of a locked door."Don't stare," Molly hissed, stirring her porridge so hard that it slopped. "He bites.""Who? The boy or the wolf?""Both, probably."I looked up.He was tall, dark-haired, broad-shouldered, in a plain grey coat with the Academy crest pinned crookedly on the lapel. He had a face like a cold winter morning, sharp and quiet and a little tired. At his heel walked a white wolf, huge and silent, with eyes the color of ice.Wyatt Frost.I had written him for a single scene, in chapter forty-four. A northern boy who had arrived late to the Academy, with a wolf he never explained, and who had been a perfectly pleasant background character until I ran out of ideas for him. I had given him a nice jaw because it helped the pacing.I had never given him a plot."He's a transfer," said Molly. "From the Northern Marches. The Dean put him in your logistics team.""My what?""You're in charge of

"Rule five," I told Pip, in the carriage. "Do not bite the Inspector.""I would never.""You bit a goat last week.""The goat provoked me.""The goat was asleep.""It had a very smug face," said Pip, from inside my collar, in a voice of wounded dignity.I pressed my forehead to the carriage window. It was a gloomy morning. The sky was the color of dishwater, and every farm we passed had its shutters closed. Somewhere ahead, in the grand courtyard of Skyfang, an Inspector from the Imperial Vaults was waiting to ask a girl with White Blood to step into a cage.I did not intend to be that girl.I had three things going for me. First, Dean Miller, who I was almost sure was on my side. Second, Elder Hugh, who had already lied once to protect me. And third, a small leather pouch in my pocket that contained a very cheerful lie."Tell me again," said Molly, riding opposite me with Biscuit on her lap, "why I'm here.""Because you're my alibi.""For what?""For everything.""What if he asks me
After transmigrating into the flood apocalypse Chapter 11: Survival Rules
Rule one: Don't die.I wrote it at one in the morning, on the back page of Nora's notebook, with a half-naked peacock watching me from a barrel."That is a very short rule," said Pip."It's the only one that matters.""Is there a rule two?""There will be." I chewed the end of my pen. "Give me a minute. I'm twenty-six years old and I've never had to write a survival plan. I've only written other people's."He nodded gravely, and the blanket slid off one shoulder. I stared very hard at the notebook."Pip.""Yes?""Please put on the trousers.""I am wearing the trousers.""Then please put on the rest.""There is no rest," he said, reasonably. "Marl has only lent me trousers."I closed my eyes and counted to five. "Marl!"• • •By morning, Greyspire had a rumor, a tailor, and a very confused donkey.Tilda had tied Pip's borrowed trousers around his waist with a rope, declared him "very tall and slightly broken," and gone to count the beans again. One of Marl's brothers had fainted and be

"Pip?"My voice rang out over the cavern, and nobody answered.Molly was on her knees in the dust, holding Biscuit so tightly that the fox squeaked. Pudding was barking, high and shrill, at a patch of empty air. Marl and his brothers had come running with lanterns, axes half drawn, and were staring at the place where my peacock had been."He was right here," Molly whispered. "He was right here, he was on your shoulder.""He's not dead." I said it too quickly. My heart was hammering. "He can't be dead. It was a transformation. I wrote it, a Spirit beast sheds its form when it, when it, oh, God."I stopped.In the shadow at the far end of the cavern, where the spring ran into the dark pool, something moved.It was a tall shape that stood very still, with its back to us, in the thin silver light that fell through a crack in the ridge. It had broad shoulders and long arms, and a cloak of dark feathers hung from its shoulders in an uneven drape. Its hair was black, and wet, and fell over i
