Summary

Summary
“Sid has me,” Zhenya said. “It’s good.”
“For now,” Johnston said.When Sid's blood donors failed, Zhenya stepped in to fill the gap. Things changed, maybe for the better, and if these feedings were how they kept Sid alive, he’d live with it.
Optimism wouldn’t kill him, he figured.

Summary
The house was empty. Zhenya did two laps before digging his phone out of the couch cushions and checking if Sid had texted him. He hadn’t.
“This fucking punk,” Zhenya muttered, sounding like his father, and pulled up the location tracking app.

In the low light spilling out of the kitchen, something glimmered in Sid’s hand. Zhenya looked at his ring, clutched tightly in Sid’s fingers.

Summary
Sid’s on the dock when he gets the call. He doesn't head back to the kitchen until the second call comes through. When he finally pushes his protein powder aside and scoops his phone off of the countertop, Jen’s name is on the screen. Twice.
His stomach bottoms out. Her name flashes across the screen again and he swipes on it.
“Jen,” he starts.
“Geno’s been bitten,” Jen says, and Sid’s world flips on its axis.

He was only twenty-six; he’d thought he would have more time.
Twenty-six was a little late for it, really. If he was being honest with himself.

“The fuck’s wrong with Geno?” Kuni muttered to him, and Sid shook his head. He knew a fair amount about bot maintenance, but glitching wasn’t maintenance, it wasn’t common, and it meant that something was pretty wrong.

Summary
After a while, Sid forgot that it was strange. Early on in Geno's second season, Sykora took Sid aside and said, “Look, what is going on with Malkin,” and it took Sid a moment to even figure out what he was talking about.
Sid shrugged. “That's just how Geno is.”
“Like a routine,” Sykora said, expression still skeptical. “A superstition?”
“Sure,” Sid said. “Something like that.”

Summary
Crosby, lingering nearby, gave Zhenya a tentative smile. They were all smiling, everyone in the room, looking at Zhenya and Crosby and dreaming big dreams, the same dreams that had pried Zhenya out of Magnitogorsk and launched him halfway around the world. Zhenya knew what was expected of him, him and Crosby together, and why not? Why couldn’t they?
“Yes,” he said in English, watching Crosby’s face, and saw the moment when Crosby’s smile turned real.

Summary
Sid’s heart jumped and stayed high, quivering behind his ribs. He had slept on the flight from Toronto to Warsaw, and studied his phrasebook between Warsaw and Moscow, and hadn’t been nervous at all until this moment. It was only Geno, after all.
Geno, who he hadn’t seen in a year and a half. Who had hesitated on the phone for many long, painful seconds when Sid first proposed this visit.

“I think I’m going to get into birding,” Sid said.
Zhenya was sitting on his balcony with his laptop on the side table, eating a burger and watching seagulls squabble on the riprap. “What’s birding,” he said absently, as one gull lifted its wings overhead, raised its rear end, and took a stringy white shit.

Summary
Geno lifted the strap of Sid’s duffel from his shoulder. “I don’t think you can fly.”
Sid had been trying not to think about that. “It’s fine. I’m just. I’ll tell the flight attendant I’m not feeling well.”
Geno made an impatient noise. “Get in, it’s too cold.” He reached into Sid’s coat pocket and fished out his keys and jingled them in Sid’s face. “You let me drive. We go to Canada.”
