    Summary

    “You’re looking for someone,” says the boy (his voice coming through as clear as a line of typeface appearing in Erik’s brain, entirely bypassing air and ear), “but he’s not here. So, if you like, you can look for me instead... after your set. And buy me a beer. How about that?”

    Summary

    “You know,” Olruggio says, roughly. He doesn’t move to take Qifrey’s hand again. “You know. You can’t not know, Qifrey.”

    Qifrey just looks at him. “I do.”

    The rain continues falling.

    (And so Olruggio forgets. And he inevitably figures it out again, because of course he does; and he inevitably chooses to forget again, and again, and again, because his heart is always the same. The story is always the same. Like a tale from under a silverwood tree, like a myth from the days of old, not so much tied by the constraints of the narrative so much as being narrative itself. Antigone must bury her brother. Iphigenia must be put to death. At a thousand turns, in a thousand ways, Orpheus must turn, and he must look, again, and again.

    And Olruggio forgets.)

    There is an old story about a witch and a silverwood tree.

    Summary

    “Sometimes I worry,” he swallowed, “That’s why I need you here to tell me I’m being stupid.”

    “Olruggio.”

    “Tell me I’m being stupid, Qifrey.”

    He wanted to swallow the space between them. He knew his friend did too. He wasn’t sure how he did. Maybe it was the subtle way Qifrey watched his hands as he worked. Maybe it was the glasses of liquor he’d insist he’d pour for him. Maybe it was how he always came for Olruggio’s laundry first. It was impossible to speak of such things, but it didn’t mean they didn’t exist.
