    Summary

    Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”

    “Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.

    “No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”

    “Go fuck yourself.”

    +++

    Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.

    And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?

    Summary

    “It’s not a crush, I’m a grown man,” Eddie counters, setting his mug down. He crosses his arms and tries not to fidget. “That’s silly.”

    “What, so you’re in love with him?”

    The question hits him somewhere near his ribcage. Eddie has to actively use every part of his brain to respond, correctly. Without—saying anything crazy. “Buck, he’s a famous singer.”

    ...or, Eddie has a crush on Orville Peck, who totally does not look like Buck.

    Summary

    "I take it you haven’t seen the photos."

    Daniel sounded amused. There was a smile in his voice. A satisfied smile. Way too satisfied.
    That couldn’t be a good sign. That sounded bad. That sounded like something Louis didn’t wanna have to deal with.

    “What photos?” he asked slowly.

    "Of you with your tongue down Lestat’s throat."

    (In which Louis forgets the consequences of getting a little slutty with it in public when your situationship(?) is famous. Several times.)

    Summary

    "I know what a breakup looks like," Daniel says. "The better question is, why are you coming to me about it? I'm the one who broke up your little sham."

    "This is what humans do, don't they?" Armand asks, letting his voice drop. "Crashing on their friends' couches when there's a blip in their romances?"

    "Except we're not friends. We're actually very much not friends." Daniel shrugs, as if it's all the same to him. "And I can't imagine the great vampire Armand deigning himself to sleep on my fucked-up sofa. That thing's been here since the nineties."

    "Well," Armand only says. "I saw you have a guest bedroom."

    Summary

    It's halfway through the second reading when he realizes few members of the audience are listening. What's the point in attending mass? Does it provide their short lives of meaning, if there's one at all?

    How much till this ends?

    Did I leave the gate open? Mom is going to kill me!

    Tommy has been avoiding me lately.

    Beautiful eyes. Are they orange…? No, it must be the candlelight.

    The voice of a man. Armand's eyes roam around the church to find the owner of that thought. Where is he? The farmer next to him? No. The young man holding the Bible open? It's not him either. The priest is about to begin the reading of the gospel and Armand's eyes fall to the center of the altar.

    Yes, they're actually orange. Absolutely stunning.

    The priest is looking directly at him.
