    Summary

    “This is pretty expensive for a high school trinket.”

    “Everything is bigger in Texas,” Alex jokes. Henry looks up at Alex, who’s standing with his shoulders relaxed for the first time since October. The relief of his mother’s victory has made him loose-limbed and calm, his smile easy and lovely. Henry looks down at the crown in his hands and back at Alex. He imagines the gold half-buried in Alex’s hair, heavy on the man’s brow, decadent and royal. Henry swallows, face heating, and holds the crown out to Alex.

    “Put it on.”

    --

    After the election, Henry explores Alex’s childhood room. He finds trinkets of a young Alex that intrigue him, including a crown that gives him some ideas.

    (Day Seven of FirstPrince Week - forgotten memories.)

    Summary

    “There is evident lack of blood around the wound.”

    “So that suggests he was dead beforehand?”

    “It suggests that the blood coagulated before the stabbing, which would mean…”

    Basically that he was dead beforehand, to summarize.

    Or; Homicide detective Alex tries to befriend his rude ass coworker, medical examiner Henry.

    Summary

    “Where did they go?” Henry had demanded of Pez once, in the relative privacy of Pez’s study while pretending to work on an English essay.

    Pez, curled in the window seat with his tablet and a mug of something herbal, had only lifted a brow. “Where did who go?”

    “The handsome boys,” Henry had said, voice full of tragedy. “The ones with taste. The ones who can string a sentence together and aren’t obsessed with Bitcoin or bench press stats.”
