Summary
They're figuring it out. Emilia and Emmrich, Emmrich and Emilia. Her on top. His gloved hand. The ghostly, spectral touch of his magic. His voice in her ear.
But mostly, mostly, she goes to kiss him and meets the glamour of his lips, and her fingers on his hard skull find themselves clutched in his hair.
When she looks up at him, though, it's not the same Emmrich she is used to. Undone, slightly. Breathless wonder, soft, on his features.

Summary
“There’s a man,” she finally gives in.
“A man? He got any defining traits, sweetheart?”
A smile breaks wide across her face, but it’s a sad one. “Smart. Handsome. Kind. Doesn’t love me back.”
Nick could laugh. Laugh, a loud bark of a laugh. Because this confirms it – whoever he is, the man is clearly an idiot.
“This young man of yours. He got eyes in his head? Brain rattling around his skull?”

Be still, my indelible friend by hideyourfires

Summary
It’s in her handwriting. Nicky, in her rounded cursive, scrawled across the holotape in black marker. Of course, he knows it’s from her. He had found it in her pocket.
“Hey, heartbreaker.” Her tone is teasing, playful, so out of touch with the awfulness of the situation. If he needed to breathe, he’s certain the air would have caught in his throat.
“It’s me,” her voice goes on. “If you’re listening to this… well. You already know the rest.”
...
The girl out of time gets the chance to lay out some things they never say. They don't talk about it.

Oh, my last, sweet dream, are you finally asleep? by hideyourfires

Summary
Three nights and one morning between the girl out of time and her synth detective.
...
“You fancy a drink, Nicky?”
He cocks his head to the side, gives her a look. “You forgetting something, toots?”
She rolls her eyes. "You know what I mean, Valentine. Celebrate. Make a night of it."
(He briefly imagines saying alright, partner, you’re on. Imagines sitting across a table from her, clinking their bottles together, trading barbs and anecdotes until the early hours of the morning. Her leg resting familiarly against his under the table. Walking her home at sunrise.
There will be other nights, he figures.)
“This wouldn’t have anything to do with your sudden aversion to getting some shut-eye, now, would it?”

Me [28M] with my roommate of 1 year [31M], I'm worried I might be homophobic towards him? by ivypool

Summary
"So this whole roommate thing. I just wanted to ask, like… what are you looking for? Should I totally leave you alone?” (God, please say no.) “Should we just be, like, cordial coworkers?” (Please, please, please say no.) “Or do you want to be more like… friends?”
Viktor snorted. It was a sound Jayce was starting to crave. His heart squeezed.
“Yes, Jayce.” Viktor stood, leaning on his cane. “I think we should be friends."
(or: the one where jayce can't figure out why he cares so much about the guys his new roommate brings home... and doesn't realize he's fallen in love until he's completely and totally fucked.)

Summary
It’s not like he hasn’t had these thoughts before. Jayce is thirty-two. He’s had plenty of time to have a series of bisexual panics. None of them convenient.
So he’s not surprised when he looks at Viktor and idly thinks, he’s hot. He’s surprised at the sort of unmitigated joy it brings him, like turning on the lights and finding yourself home after a long time away. Attraction settles on Jayce like a blanket across his shoulders. A fairweather friend who’s stopped by for a drink.
or: jayce meets his downstairs neighbor on the rooftop. he tries not to fall too fast.

Summary
Henry hated how his mouth was suddenly dry, “Torture, Sir?”
Radzig cast a sharp eye over him. “I know it’s distasteful, but it can’t be helped. This is too important.”
Henry never told his father about what happened to him deep in the bowels of the Trosky dungeons. Past is past, and airing it out only ever brings heartache.
He avoids torture, he avoids dungeons, he avoids anything that makes him feel like he's back there.
It works, until a bandit is captured, and Radzig expects Henry to be the one to interrogate him.
