‘     very funny,     lynch.     ’     you level your gaze at him;     not quite a frown,     but serious enough to let him know you’re displeased.     in the dim candlelight by which you’re communing with the other world,     he looks unexpectedly innocent,     long lashes fanning a shadow over his cheekbones,     fingers resting gently on the planchette over the     ‘     𝐊     ’     on the board.     but you know the truth:     he’s not innocent               not this time,     at least.     ‘     i know you’re the one that spelled that out.     i want you to take this seriously.     ’
