  Summary

  Rooney tells him he loves him, Ace’s mind tricks him into thinking it’s conditional, the way it was with Rockefeller. With the audience, with everyone who has ever graced Ace’s life, no matter how briefly.

  Rooney doesn’t want anything from him, Ace knows, besides his presence. Everything that he is, every miniature speck of stardust accumulating into a stream of consciousness capable of loving, and being loved. Rooney asks for nothing but effort, and that is one thing Ace can give.

  “I feel scrambled,” Ace whispers honestly, because his thoughts are racing too fast to articulate them properly, despite how long he’d been here folded in on himself in the reliable sanctuary of his room. “I’m not sure what’s wrong with me.”
