"Kettricken smiled"

Perfect.

"Bird's didn't talk like that"? How are talking birds different to talking cats? (Or a talking wolf?)

|| "Every word Amber spoke about it was a twisting knife in my gut. My anxiety was more than I could bear; his only made mine more searing. I entered her cabin that day to find the Fool hanging upside-down by his knees from the upper bunk."

Loving the revelation that Fool themself is the source of the line they oft accredit to Shrewd.

|| "I want to get off this insane ship and away from these people. I want to leave now!"

Can't but agree, Fitz - tiring, these Liveships' entanglements with chapters of nigh but angry bickering and charmless bravado from a cavalcade of secondary characters.

Honestly, this repeated chasing of Bee is getting a tad vaudevillian in manner.

|| "The calluses on her hand rasped against mine."

Ha. That's a special one: a combo.
