Summary
Everyone was born with a little magic - it was a simple fact of life. Some people had a stronger connection to their magic, some people had more powerful expressions of their magic, some people just simply had more useful kinds of magic. Some people had mundane magic, things like the ability to charge small devices without a power source, or the ability to stay dry in a rainstorm, or the ability to keep a pocket of cool air around them no matter the season.
Others had more potential, more power: the ability to throw lightning, to freeze the water in the air around them, to move objects with their mind.
Pete was a mechanomancer - he couldn't do anything flashy, but he could 'talk' to machines, particularly engines. It made him a fantastic mechanic, and one hell of a fighter pilot.
Not that it had mattered all that much in the end.
They'd thrown him out just as fast as anyone else when someone caught him kissing a man and blackmailed him about it.

Or: Pete, dishonorably discharged for the crime of kissing a man, finds where he really belongs on a journey to discover the best restaurants around him.

Summary
If Pete had thought for even a moment that it would take him months to get back into Tom's bed after the first time he woke up in it, he'd have laughed. The last thing he expected was for the man who pulled a gun to protect him to go all Victorian on him.
But he had. Tom had taken him to his bed, taken care of him, made sure he was okay, and then sent him on his way with the promise of dinner on Monday. And then he'd almost acted as if none of that had happened at all - or, it might have seemed so except that when he showed up for dinner, the restaurant had been decorated with candles.
He'd been glad that he took a chance and brought a small bouquet - though he'd been ready to dump it in a trash can around the corner if he thought the vibes weren't right.
Tom had been strangely nervous, shy almost. Cute, he'd thought. He seemed confused that Pete came back, that Pete didn't blame him for what happened to him, that he still wanted to be around him.
Pete had shrugged it off - the time in his life where he might have cared about that sort of thing had been forcibly ended by the Navy themselves. What did he care what Tom's extracurricular activities entailed?

Summary
There are whispers that swirl and slither in darkened corners and behind closed doors. Messages of rumor and truth passed from one host to the other in hushed tones and with furtive glances over shoulders. Whispers are a currency beholden to no value. Priceless and worthless in measures. The wrong word at the wrong time can get you killed. The right one can be salvation.
In a world built on shadowy steps, on the fringes of streetlight, and on desperate attempts to escape the clawing dissatisfaction of life; whispers dictate empires.
The only thing more powerful than a whisper, in his world, is a name. Ruthless, they call him. Ice-cold, after he committed parricide. Steady, in the following years, slow to anger and exacting in action. Warmaker, they call him now.
