Glimmering and trembling, trembling and unfolding, a breaking light, an opening flower, it spread in endless succession to itself, breaking in full crimson and unfolding and fading to palest rose, leaf by leaf and wave of light by wave of light, flooding all the heavens with its soft flushes, every flush deeper than the other.
~ James Joyce

Carden gives me a look up through his lashes that I find hard to interpret and rises too. He takes my hand. "Nothing is sweeter," he says, kissing the back of it, "but that which is scarce." My skin flushes, hot and uncomfortable.
~ Holly Black
