Summary
A duty dodged is like a debt unpaid; it is only deferred, and we must come back and settle the account at last.—Joseph F. Newton
"This is a monumentally bad idea," Simon said.
"You'd rather I pick one of the garden-grown guides from the safe little enclave?" Jim answered his boss. He was lucky to have a sentinel captain who cared enough to follow him to Earth, but they just couldn't see eye to eye on this one issue.
"Some of the best guides come from good old Earth, and you saw the training they go through."
"I don't feel any of them, Simon."
"Jim—" Simon started, but Rafe tightened his hand on Simon's arm and faced Jim.
"Let him search. However, the rumors of sentinels tracking down the perfect guide—they're rumors, fantasies."
Jim glared at his captain's guide.
"On Divitia or Terra, without guide programs, maybe the old ways work. If you had caught a scent of guide there, I would say you had a chance to track one. But here? So many sentinels visit. If guides were anywhere around Patria, a sentinel would have reported it. The city guard would have tracked them. They would be in the enclave training because no one lives out there if they have a choice."

Summary
Go to the Sentinel/Guide conference, Lydia said. It’ll be useful, Lydia said. You might even find your Sentinel, Lydia said, because of course in the ridiculous town of Beacon Hills that’s full of supernatural creatures there is precisely one Sentinel of the right age and Parrish is already her Guide.

Summary
“A meeting,” Tony doesn’t even bother to hide his incredulity.
“Yes.”
“With the Galactic Empire,” he attempts to lighten his own mood with the joke, but the response he gets from Ross makes the blood freeze in his veins.
“They call themselves the Unitary Galactic Communia, actually.”
If Tony lets his silence speak for itself, it’s only partially because his throat is closing up on him at an alarming rate.
“I know it sounds bad at first—“
“Oh no no no, not at all,” Tony interjects quickly, “this is wonderful news. A communia. A unitary one. Sounds very… organized. They must be people who know how to keep an army. Of galactic proportions. This is great, really. Not debilitatingly frightening in the least.”
...
Alternatively: the freshly pardoned Rogues have complaints, Tony is dead on his feet, and Steve has issues with the handsome alien lord who keeps offering Stark the literal universe.- Language:
