People reach for fire agate on the days when they need to keep some heat but stop giving it away. It has a reputation for holding your ground, not by getting louder, but by getting steadier. Good in a pocket before a hard conversation. Good on the desk during a week you're trying to protect your time. Good in the palm when a mood keeps sliding into anger and you'd rather not go there.
