    Summary

    Too soon, his mind catches on the question he hadn’t known how to ask amid his rambling confession on the roof. He’d asked Yor to stay, but hadn’t defined what she would be to him. What they would be to each other. She’d accepted anyway.

    What does she want to be? Does she want to be Anya’s mother? His…wife?

    One step at a time, he tells himself. He forces his thoughts to slow down, to stop spiraling down futile paths and reaching for contingency plans. There are no contingency plans here. He is living out day one of the only plan he has.

    -----

    A retired spy and a retired assassin settle into family life in rural Ostania, with no lies and deception between them, but still plenty of insecurity and overthinking.

    A fan sequel to unhappy_sometimes' brilliant fic "After peace," written with her blessing.

    Summary

    For future events, we should be able to maintain this status quo and easily pass as a married couple. The question is if Yor will be able to continue this level of intimacy, but based on her reaction tonight, it didn’t seem too difficult for her.

    “Loid?” Yor called.

    He turned around to find she was right in front of him. “Yes?”

    Of course, Yor has always been slightly unpredictable. I’ll have to—

    Before he could react, she pulled on his shoulder, stood up on her toes, and gave him a peck on the cheek.

    “Thanks for everything,” she said sweetly.

    And then she left, humming happily as she slipped into her room. Twilight stood firmly planted in the middle of the hallway.

    …I’ll have to…have to…

    Twilight is a man of considerable intelligence. Until he isn't.

    Summary

    “What’re you saying, Handler?”

    “What I’m saying is, I need a favor from you. I need you to protect this girl while we put an end to this.”

    “I’m retired—by your orders, Handler—I don’t do missions anymore.”

    “I know, but you’re still the best agent we ever had. You’re the only one I trust to keep her safe.”

    “I’m an unemployed bachelor living alone out in the middle of nowhere. That’s hardly a good environment for a kid.”

    “It won’t be that long, just a few months at most. You don’t need to raise her, for crying out loud, just make sure she stays alive and well. We’ll compensate you and everything,” the Handler says.

    “What if I say no?”

    A futile question.

    “Ultimately, I can’t force you to do anything anymore,” she says, “But the poor kid has been through so much. I’m asking you as a friend to protect this little girl.”

    She sucks in a breath and holds it, as if debating to say what’s on her mind.

    “You fought so children could have a safe world to grow up in, right?” Her voice is gentle and sincere. “Please, Twilight, she needs that world more than ever.”
