    Summary

    The offering is never for the god's benefit. Gods don't need pens. Gods don't need lambs, or the grain, or the wine poured into dirt. The offering is a transaction- worshippers buying the illusion of safety, and the god accepts because the acceptance is what keeps them coming back. Keep accepting and they keep giving. Keep taking the small things and eventually they'll give you the big things. Their harvest. Their firstborn.

    Their throat.

    Brendon Park is a patient man. That's the worst thing about him.

    Summary

    If you went digging around in Benson's car, you'd find a bottle of too-warm water that's probably safe to drink from. A spare high beam bulb, still in the packaging. A tire pump purchased almost twenty years ago for a blue bicycle. An even distribution of about thirty napkins. Enough change rattling in the glove box to buy a lottery ticket. He has everything you'd need to keep rolling down dirty roads with no end in sight.

    The only thing missing from Benson's car is a gun or two.

    Summary

    They were uncertain of the exact destination, but California felt as good as any for Benson and Randy. The further they ran, the more brazen they became, and the more liberties Benson took from the world beyond their dusty windshield.

    Summary

    A loud buzzing sounds between her ears. It drowns out the ED, the commentary of the other nurses as Ahmad hits play on a video cued up from a local news’ YouTube channel that reads HOSTAGE SITUATION AT PITTSBURGH BANK in the lower chyron.

    The video shows a shaky camera zoomed way far in as, yeah, that’s definitely Jack, walking toward the front doors of a Philly First National branch with his hands held up in surrender.

    Or—

    Jack’s TEMS shift goes awry, and all Samira can do is wait.

    Summary

    There were probably a million reasons as to why living with her attending, a man she barely knew, was a bad idea. But as of right now, it was Samira’s best option.

    ***

    A pipe bursts in Samira's apartment. She crashes on Trinity and Dennis's couch, but the arrangement doesn't last. Enter Jack Abbot and his spare room.
