    Summary

    “Burakh remembers the first time they had slept together (not like that, not yet); how they had tried to fit both of their selves side by side on Dankovsky’s single bed — how they had managed, somehow. He remembers the electric feeling of skin against his; how Daniil’s legs entwined with his like oaken roots, how the hairs on his arm brushed against him like hyphae. It’s that, then, now, for now; it’s something entirely different. They kiss now like carrion birds.”

    An invitation of Dankovsky’s to a gala celebrating the triumphs of modern medicine (and his new work recalling the common fight against the pest) makes its way to Town-on-Gorkhon. Him and Burakh quite missed each other.

    Summary

    "So..." Artemy heard himself begin from a distance before taking another small hit and blowing out a billowing cloud of incense. "Are you... Do you have a partner, then? A man?" His addled mind needed his clothes off as soon as physically possible, but it was difficult to discern if that was the euphoric part of the high goading him on or if it was his own perversion bleeding through his weakened defenses.

    Daniil's rare grin was both audible and contagious when he replied, "Why do you want to know? You're awfully interested in my amorous affairs; I'm growing suspicious. De omnibus dubitandum."

    Artemy is vexed by his late-night thoughts about Daniil. After they smoke some twyre together, Daniil obliges and answers his questions about bedding men.

    Summary

    "Yeah. I've been teaching the kid about the Kin traditional medicine, keeping him out of trouble the best I can. Though you'd probably say I'm indoctrinating him with backwater lies or some bullshit like that," Artemy spat.

    Daniil contemplated for a second more. "I think we've been tricked."

    Artemy chuckled, shaking his head in disbelief. "Go on."

    "Sticky is my apprentice, Burakh," Daniil revealed at last. "I have been teaching him pharmacology and medicine—or I've been trying to. Unless he has an evil twin like the Changeling, he's been two-timing us."

    Sticky doesn't get why his mentors Daniil and Artemy are at each other's throats all the time. He takes matters into his own hands.

    Summary

    Daniil rolled his eyes, but despite his best efforts, a grin broke out across his face. "How insatiable. Does treating patients really get you going?"

    "No, but their gorgeous doctor does," purred Artemy as smoothly as he could manage. While he didn't succeed in coming off as suave, Daniil still chuckled at his cheesy flattery as Artemy leaned closer behind him to ghost his lips along the shell of his ear, and Artemy didn't think there was a sound in the world more dulcet than Daniil's affectionate laughter. "He's a real showstopper, that one. Quite handsome, though some might say he's a bit of a dandy. And have you seen the hot blond nurse that follows him around?"

    "Christ, Tyoma, you're ridiculous." Daniil's smile was audible, full of begrudging endearment, and he shook his head while running his gloved hands up Artemy's arms where they circled his waist. "So you're my assisting nurse, now? It seems to me like you'd prefer to be the patient receiving treatment."

    Daniil offers to give a very (un)professional physical examination to his lover. Artemy is more enthusiastic than either would have expected.

    Summary

    "Don't feign innocence, moga."

    "I never said I was innocent, Christ, you're dense," Daniil breathed. His trousers were too tight; it was all too many layers of fabric, dulling the contact that should've been overwhelming until it was only teasing, just enough stimulation to drive him insane. "I'm not feigning anything, and I'm not wrong. You're the one who broke my nose and then mounted me like a feral animal, wouldn't you say that's depraved? Hell, you're lucky I'm even allowing this, knowing your bloody track record."

    Artemy snickered into Daniil's ear. "It's not broken, don't be dramatic. Your pretty face will be just fine."

    For sworn enemies dead set on killing each other, Daniil and Artemy survive an awful lot of one-on-one encounters.
