Sticking together for survival, of course. Nothing more. Who are they kidding?

And the Better Halves by The Black Sun's Daughter
The thing about people is that they are, in a word, stupid. It's just in their nature, just like it's in the nature of their d?mons, the better halves, the halves with all the common sense, to be far more simple than their human counterparts.

2 And Looking for My Heart by The Black Sun's Daughter
Jacob Stone is a son of a witch with no d?mon that nobody wants to even be in the same room with because he's 'unnatural.' Which he's fine with. Really, he is. On the other hand, Ezekiel Jones is a son of the foster system who's really kind of confused about this whole d?mon thing, because he's pretty sure he's not supposed to have two. Right?

1 And the Consciousness of Loving by The Black Sun's Daughter
Ezekiel calls her Mama Baird when he thinks he's being funny, and she'll call them her kids when she's teasing them. But they're not really her children, she's not really their mother, and she has no right to poke around their personal lives. But nobody can stop her from worrying about them. She's their Guardian. It's her job, after all.

And the (Occasional) Benefits of Idiocy by The Black Sun's Daughter
Ezekiel knows why he's in the hospital. Yep, that's because he was an idiot and got himself a piece of a bullet in his arm on their last mission, brilliant thief he is. What he doesn't know is why Jake is sitting with him, or why Jake's d?mon is letting him use her as a pillow. Yeah, he needs an explanation here.

And the Largest of the Senses by The Black Sun's Daughter
Ezekiel is fine. Zhu is fine, too. They've seen their coworkers die more times than they can count, seen their d?mons vanish into swirls of golden Dust. He still has nightmares, and sometimes Zhu wakes up biting at empty air, whimpering. But they're fine. Just...fine.

And Stubborn Love by The Black Sun's Daughter
It's interesting to think about. Falling in love starts with "who the hell is this?" and yet somehow leads to "never let me go." Strange how that works, isn't it? Maybe not stranger than d?mons, flying swords, and a magic Library. Maybe.

And the Other Rule of Three by The Black Sun's Daughter
If bad things come in threes, then certainly good things can, too. Right?

1 And D?mon Tactics by The Black Sun's Daughter
It's kind of hard to pretend that they have a perfectly professional relationship when Flynn's d?mon insists on treating Eve's own d?mon like her own personal chair at every opportunity.

1 And the Shifted Stones by The Black Sun's Daughter
Bitterness is like cancer; it eats upon its host. But anger is like fire; it burns it all clean. One of Maya Angelou's better known quotes and a surprisingly true one, too, as Stone finds out for himself.

1 And the Day of Rest by The Black Sun's Daughter
Their lives are full of magic and danger and inexplicable things, so it's a rare moment when they can sit down and relax and enjoy the more normal aspects of life. Which means that disaster will likely soon occur. She should set a timer.

1 And the Science of Settling by The Black Sun's Daughter
When you are a kid, your d?mon changes shape. When you grow up, it stops. That simple. And yet, here's Jacob Stone, a grown man with a d?mon that still changes. He's not the only one, though.
