    Summary

    Olruggio barks a laugh, then Qifrey does—something, hits the right spot with the right pressure and Olruggio groans instead. It's mortifying, really, but Qifrey just does it again, harder, and Olruggio goes slack under the touch.

    "Ah, hell," Olruggio croaks.

    Qifrey offers Olruggio a massage.

    Summary

    "You know, I always thought I'd live somewhere with lots of people around," Olruggio tells him. The wine in his vessel is a rich pink colour. Qifrey made them olives and cheese with cabroccoli wrapped in ham for a late-night snack, but the pleasure was in the making, not in the eating. He sips his own vessel, listening. "But it's really nice out here, isn't it? Peaceful. Good for focussing."

    "I think you would be even more of a hermit, if you had the choice," Qifrey says. "Lost in your work for weeks on end."

    Olruggio looks sheepish, rubbing the back of his neck with his free hand. "You're probably right. I never thought I'd be that kind of person, either… weird how much things change, isn't it?"

    "And how much they stay the same," Qifrey murmurs.

    A temporary fix-it.

    Summary

    Shane pulls back, carefully cradling Ilya’s face. “Maybe we shouldn’t.”

    “You don’t want to?” Ilya’s eyes are bottomless; swimming with grief. He says it like he really means, You don’t want me?

    “That isn’t what I mean,” Shane says gently, brushing his thumb over Ilya’s cheekbone. Ilya’s eyes flutter shut, as if being treated so tenderly causes him physical pain. Like he isn’t used to it. “You’re hurting. I don’t want you to regret it in the morning.” 

    Ilya’s eyes open. “I have never regretted a moment with you.”

    Or: the missing hotel room scene in Florida after Shane comforts Ilya.
