Summary
Gabriel feels like he’s coming home as he arrives back on the island. The large estate plopped right down on a lush green hill, with trees surrounding the complex and a vast expanse of garden where they’ve hosted welcome parties and various nighttime events over the last two years. All of said events attended by alums and those high up in the Crooked Network alike.

Summary
dorian has always been good at being second—just behind, just to the side, exactly where he’s meant to be.
it’s easier that way. Safer. edgar never looks too closely, never asks questions, never notices the things dorian is so careful to hide.
he tells himself that’s enough.
(it has to be.)
because wanting more, wanting anything at all, would mean risking the one thing he’s never learned how to live without.
And Dorian doesn’t think he could survive being seen.

Summary
"As she searched for her palette knife, Avery returned his chair to a respectable angle, and reached down into his bag. Penelope was just about tearing her hair out when she felt something pass her lips. Turning her head in shock, she saw Avery twirling her paintbrush leisurely between his fingers. Penelope exhaled, mouth falling open in exasperation, and was about to say something devastating when she saw him approach again, and in the blink of an eye, tasted metal on her tongue where the wood was before.
Speechless, she stared motionlessly into the brown of his eyes and slowly closed her mouth around the knife, her lips grazing his fingertips as he pulled back and smiled, looking almost with pride at her stillness. Whilst she sat paralysed with the speed of her thoughts, he reached down into her pocket, took a shilling, and winked at her, before leaning back in his chair again.
“Pay attention next time, Lockett.”
Alright, Gabriel Avery. Game on.
Avery - 1 // Lockett - 0

Or, Penelope and Gabriel pick each other's pockets, and maybe exploit each other's weaknesses in the process.
