A scene from Tasha Suriβs The Burning Kingdoms Trilogy. Priya and Malini meet in the imperial tent to discuss Priyaβs role in the war whilst both try to restrain their feelings for each other. An exerpt from Book 2 Oleander Sword is written below: βWill you do it as my ally? Ally. As if that encompassed even half of it. But Malini could not ask for this on the basis of whatever lay between them: a handful of furious kisses, a knife against a heart, a flower around a throat, a yearning that never seemed to abate. Priya looked at her and looked at her, and somehow the looking had brought them closer together.β
βPriya looked at her and looked at her and somehow the looking had brought them closer togetherβ π

also. genuinely how did asimov manage to get Worse at writing women in the 3 decades btwn books 2 and 3. jesus.
He felt Daneelβs steady arm about his waist and shame prevented him from doing what, at the moment, he most wanted to doβto turn and hide his face against the robotic chest. He might have been unable to resist if Daneel had been humanβ
asimov will be like this is a married heterosexual man and then write this. okay
literally WHAT DID HE MEAN BY THIS!!!
Again, Baley found himself crammed into the front seat between the two robots. He welcomed Daneel particularly, with his humanlike body warmth. Although Giskardβs textilelike outermost layer was insulating and not as cold to the touch as bare metal would have been, he was the less attractive of the two in Baleyβs current chilly state. Baley caught himself on the verge of putting an arm around Daneelβs shoulder, with the intention of finding comfort by drawing him even closer. He brought his arm down to his lap in confusion.
PRESENTED WITHOUT COMMENT.
Vasilia said, βFriends? An Earthman and a humaniform robot? Well, there is a match. Neither quite human.β Baley said, sharply, βNevertheless bound by friendship. Do not, for your own sake, test the force of ourββ Now it was he who paused and, as though to his own surprise, completed the sentence impossibly, ββlove.β
confessions of love????? right in front of the murder suspect???????
A highlighted book passage that reads: "Baley looked into the otherβs gentle eyes (when did he start thinking of their expression as gentle?)"
LIKE WHAT KIND OF FANFIC ASS LINE
"are you reading asimov's robots series solely for th-" the homoerotic subtext? yes. yes i am

finished quarantine by greg egan. and i have to say. waiting until halfway through your noir detective thriller to suddenly veer off the road straight into the weeds of quantum mechanics is a hilarious move
