Summary
“See… Powpow and Ekko got me thinkin’. Seein’ them go off and have that ceremony in the grove, with all of us, after that competition? I just keep thinkin’ about it…”
“What, are you still shy about singing for them?”
“No, no,” he chuckles, recalling the folk songs they spun and Silco’s wicked fiddling, “I don’t- heh, no I was happy to do it with you, even if I flubbed my bit.”
“Then what?” Silco coaxes out of him. “Don’t leave your poor friend adrift.”
He pauses, smiling a bit still, but looking nauseous.
“Y’wanna make this thing real?”-
Vander proposes making them official. Silco already thinks they are.

Summary
Norton Campbell has long forgotten what being in love feels like.
This isn’t surprising, nor is it unwanted, the fact he hasn’t thought about that nonsense. Oh, many, many years had passed since he last had a crush, since he got turned down for being a skinny little flaco, since he last got the shit kicked out of him by the other boys for it.
[...]
Unfortunately, he has been reminded of the feeling in the weirdest of all places, Oletus Manor, where- you know, things are afoot. Nefarious, well-paying things.
And… not unfortunately, in fact, uh… fortunately… he has been reminded of his beating heart by the presence of one Alice DeRoss.-
Norton elects to face the embarrassing but pleasant thing between him and Alice DeRoss.

Summary
"I'll be two seconds," Romeo laughs, bouncing up onto the ball of his foot and springing up the steps.
Carlo sighs, frowning. Damn him. Damn damn damn him.
Carlo buries his face in the lapels of Romeo's coat, letting out a release-valve shriek into the old melton, before taking an embarrassing draught from the material.
It smells like the awful tobacco he rolls into his cigarettes. It smells like his terrible cologne. It smells like sixteen jobs and not enough sleep, a helping hand in the darkness of life.
-
Romeo and Carlo go out on a date. Misunderstandings are cleared up. Intimacies are shared. -

Summary
He was about to meet Andreas Maler – the Andreas Maler!
He had been so excited- that- that he just couldn’t wait! He couldn’t possibly wait until spring to come and see Master Maler, to meet the man who had painted that beautiful altarpiece in Salzburg. The Holy Mother seemed to glow, lit from within with her rosy cheeks and soft, flaxen hair! And the smiling baby Jesus – it felt to Caspar that the Christ-child so rarely looked like his mother, like someone’s child, the way he looked like his father and mother combined. The altarpiece was so gentle, and warm – Master Maler had to be gentle and warm like that. There was no way he was anything else. No one cruel or rough would be able to paint that delicate baby and that rosy-cheeked woman.
-
Caspar goes to meet his idol. And perhaps more importantly, his idol's muse. -

Summary
In theory, what you are is not Romeo Morelli, not the Lucignolo that a boy named Carlo loved.
In theory, you should not love him. You are a strange creation of an inventor, a perfect version of the real boy his son loved. A version that father would approve of.
In theory, you are filled with only the best memories of a boy. A boy who got sick and died. A son, and someone's love.
You are a puppet. This you know. You know this well. You are a ponderous automaton. You move, and you think. This is alright.
And you are a puppet, and you are programmed to think.
You do not think that you were intended to think quite so much.

Summary
Paul Müller loves drawing, but he's never considered himself an artist. Even the furtive lessons Master Maler used to give him in the meadow were little more than nice memories in an otherwise difficult childhood.
But when Andreas returns to Tassing, and Paul finds himself spending several hours in the company of the man's apprentice, he finds the two of them have more in common than he thought -- even if it's only Caspar that's training to be a real artist. And in searching for meaning in their own works, both boys find themselves asking a few questions about the man who taught them both to love art.
