    Summary

    “We call this ♪♫.”

    “The color or the rock?” I tease, earning myself a low staccato noise not unlike what a human might sound like when faking a laugh.

    And then, from one second to another, he straightens. I sense the shift in the air, and as I rise from my squat, Rocky's gaze follows me very, very slowly.

    “What?” I ask.

    “Say name of this again,” he says, and I tilt my head. He’s never needed me to repeat something before. His hearing is immaculate, and he’s never once forgotten something I’ve told him.

    “It’s a rock.”

    He doesn’t move. He stares at me with his featureless face until even that feels more unsettling than eye contact.

    “Grace,” he says flatly. “You are fucking kidding me, question?”

    /////

    Or: Rocky learns the meaning behind the name Grace gave him.

    Summary

    They've been fleeing, and hiding, and seeking, so sex hasn't exactly been the highest priority. But Thaisha would be lying through her teeth if she tried to say she's not enjoying everything about the sight before her. The paladin's black-chained veil ripples with light. Its links are intricately forged with some metal she doesn't quite recognize offhand, which definitely says something about its age.

    The water is bubbling, but where soap doesn't float it's quite transparent, and neither she nor Vaelus were particularly shy about stripping down to get in here. So when she takes a long second to trace her gaze up and down the other woman's body, appraising, there's certainly a lot of everything to see. 

    Fuck. She's hot. And their stay with Einfasen is tenuous at best. Not guaranteed. So if Thaisha does want to do something about that fact...

    Thaisha and Vaelus solidify their alliance.

    (Alternately: the bath scene, but they fuck about it.)

    Summary

    Ilya wanted so badly to just tell Svetlana: It’s Shane Hollander, it’s always been Shane Hollander. He wanted to invite her over after the game so he'd know it was possible for her and Shane to exist in the same room without the world collapsing.

    He was calling Shane back before he even thought about it, his heart in his throat. 

    “Ilya?”

    “Can I invite Svetlana?"

    He could never have expected what happened next.

    Or: Only a few months after the cottage, Shane meets Svetlana—and goes to great lengths to defeat his jealousy.

    Summary

    "Mister Rozanov," the Centaurs' GM says, standing and holding out his hand for Ilya to shake. "Welcome to Ottawa."

    (Or: When the Centaurs play their first game on Boston ice, half the fans in the crowd are wearing number 81.)
