Summary
He hesitates. “Do you know, I - I saw a photograph of you, in a magazine. You were standing in the ruins of a church. It must have been while you were stationed there.”
The blush that fills his cheeks tells Vincent, as clear and firm as the chime of a bell, that Thomas had not seen the photo a few days or even weeks ago but perhaps years, and that he had remembered it ever since. He had remembered Vincent, and he is ashamed to admit it although he does not quite know why.
Oh, Vincent thinks, oh – you? And – of course. For there can be no one else. Not for him.
(Vincent remembers, and Thomas forgets.)

Summary
Aldo sits by a patient's bed and takes his confession. Should have done it like you, Father, the man croaks from between wasted lips. Should have devoted myself to one man and one man only. A cough rattles his frame.
Oh, Aldo thinks, you have no idea.
Or: Aldo belongs to God, and to Thomas, in equal measure.

Summary
"Let me help.” A hundred years or so from now, I believe, a famous novelist will write a classic using that theme. He'll recommend those three words even over “I love you."
- Star Trek, 'The City on the Edge of Forever'Pope Innocentius may be, as the papers say, pure, unblemished, a saint in human form - but Vincent Benítez is very much a man, and wants nothing more than to go home.
Thomas Lawrence will see him through, no matter the cost.

Summary
Thomas clears his throat. "We have held hands. Yesterday, after Compline, he kissed me. There has not been anything else.”
“Kissed you?”
Thomas studiously tips his head upward, avoiding all eye contact. “Yes. Not for very long.”
“Was it any good?”
“Aldo!”
“Worth a shot.” Aldo grins. “You could get some real money with his admirers, you know. There’s a lot of young women out there wanting to know how the prettiest Pope to ever grace the See might kiss.”
“Well.” With a certain primness Thomas folds his hands together. “I’m afraid they would have to go through me first.”
Oh, John, Aldo thinks. Beloved, beloved.
(Aldo Bellini can do without the papacy, but he cannot do without Thomas).

Summary
“Jesus,” Daniel said, once his dead heart had stopped racing.
“I don’t care for him,” Armand said. He was tapping away at his iPad. “Tell me. Which word do you think would cause greater offense: vapid or insipid?”
“Insipid,” Daniel said immediately, then, taking a closer look at the screen, “Are you fucking review bombing Lestat’s album?”
“It’s something to do,” Armand sighed.
Daniel just wants to get through The Vampire Lestat's documentary in one piece. The Vampires Lestat, Louis and Armand aren't making it any easier for him.

Summary
Lestat's frown deepens. “My God, Louis!” he says. “I am not some petty voyeur. My motives are noble. My heart is unselfish. Frankly this is an act of chivalry. Please take off your pants.”
