    Summary

    He sat and got comfortable, unfolding the papers to read. Maybe a little too comfortable. He felt a sudden chill on his most intimate areas when he sat. He remembered a little too late he was just in the short robe gifted to him by Goffredo, one not meant for the eyes of fellow men of the cloth.

    An overthought one shot explaining why Bellini's robe was so short.

    Summary

    Они не говорят о политике и церкви, когда остаются наедине. Не из уважения друг к другу, не из боязни задеть, не из желания разграничить «личное» и «рабочее» и не нести в койку дневные обиды — у них просто нет на это времени.

    Summary

    Aldo Bellini does not usually perform the masses in the Basilica but he has to cover his dear friend.
    It seems just his luck that the day he directs the mass, a man named Tedesco attends. And a mafia boss has very interesting things to say in a confession.
    After that, is Aldo truly safe? And why does the man keep following him?

    Summary

    The farmer may treasure his fattest calf, all plump on its rump and with the sweetest mewling. The farmer may pet it, soothe it, bring it into his arm in a gentle, paternal embrace—until the calf forgets itself, believing itself to be a man, a son. Yet no amount of pretence lasts forevermore.

    Eventually, the son will return. Not even a prodigal one, but the true protégé.

    When he does, the farmer will once more stroke the underbelly of the calf with worn, gentle hands before leading it to the butcher’s knife. A slaughter to celebrate the return of his son.

    Aldo looks upon his butcher.
    Tedesco gazes back.

    (Following the end of the conclave, Tedesco reveals his knowledge of Aldo’s secret to him. Aldo finds himself to be a docile beast led to the butcher’s hand.)

    Summary

    Was he just paranoid? Was he so far gone that he was just imagining things? Maybe, but Thomas kept praying, focusing on the words of his prayer, as he swore something stood right next to his bed. All he could hear, however, was the clock, the beeping and whirring of the monitors, and the sound of his own labored breaths in the darkness.

     

    Give us this day our daily bread,

    and forgive us our trespasses,

    as we forgive those who trespass against-

     

    He let out a choked sound as a hand covered his mouth, tilting his head to the side, and something sharp latched onto his neck, digging into his flesh.

    -Or-

    Thomas’ cancer returns, but someone prevents his death by turning him into a vampire. Unsure of how to navigate this new life, he seeks out Vincent Benitez to help find the vampire that turned him.

    Summary

    Tedesco is his complete opposite. He and Aldo are like the Ying and the Yang, like the darkness and the light. They collide – blatantly, publicly, conflicting forces on holy ground.

    Conservative and liberal, two realities that can’t mix, a never-ending fight.

    Or is it?

    -

    Aldo feels lost after the attack on Pope Innocent. As he'll soon find out, some disasters don't come to destroy your world. Some simply clear the path for a better future.

    Summary

    Ностальгически это напоминает Томасу школьные годы и как он делал домашние задания за кухонным столом, пока мать готовила что-то к ужину и рассказывала сплетни про соседей, пересыпанные её острыми комментариями и благочестивыми «да простит Господь их грешные души». Альдо похож на неё иногда до страшного, и это вызывает в Томасе смешанные чувства: тепло и нежность, и необъяснимую вину, как будто он подводит их обоих, не умея показать свою любовь. (или: Альдо готовит для Томаса ужин. Томас знает, что это значит)

    Summary

    The Cardinals debate ecclesiastical policy by day. By night, they debate... other things. Loudly. In the annex hall.
    Sister Agnes cleans up after them. Returns their lost items. Erases the evidence.
    They think it's Divine Providence.
    It's not.
    Three sinners. One unspoken contract. And the divine intervention that wears a blue habit, carries lemon-scented disinfectant, and regrets absolutely nothing.

    Summary

    After a year, Pope Vincent is thrown a birthday party to celebrate his growing legacy as the New Holy Father.

    Goffredo Tedesco finds himself on the outskirts of the celebration with the knowledge that perhaps no one wanted him there. It was his doing of course. No matter how much one changes, there will always be a sense of trepidation that the butcher will still lash out. So he goes outside and readies himself to leave without so much as a goodbye, but then unexpected company brings more than just simple conversation.
