Summary
The Patriarch has always been fascinated by Aldo Bellini. The Liberal Lion, the sly politician, the handsome and intelligent spokesperson for everything Goffredo stood against. This man was so many things that Tedesco was not, that he admired and despised in equal measure.
He never thought he would be his undoing as well.

Summary
Aldo asked for the divorce, on impulse, maybe. Now he’s kind of regretting it though.
Specially because the way Tedesco is fucking him makes him feel slightly guilty.Bookmarked by VinnyV

Summary
Thomas clears his throat. "We have held hands. Yesterday, after Compline, he kissed me. There has not been anything else.”
“Kissed you?”
Thomas studiously tips his head upward, avoiding all eye contact. “Yes. Not for very long.”
“Was it any good?”
“Aldo!”
“Worth a shot.” Aldo grins. “You could get some real money with his admirers, you know. There’s a lot of young women out there wanting to know how the prettiest Pope to ever grace the See might kiss.”
“Well.” With a certain primness Thomas folds his hands together. “I’m afraid they would have to go through me first.”
Oh, John, Aldo thinks. Beloved, beloved.
(Aldo Bellini can do without the papacy, but he cannot do without Thomas).

Summary
Decidedly, he thinks Thomas is horrible at making descriptions of people.
There is the cardinal he was waiting for, but the thick fabrics of his vestments are bunched up and wrinkled, unlike how any cardinal would let himself dress. His usually hunched posture is heavier, and the beat of his footsteps sounds slower. One would think moving brought him pain, and Aldo has never seen eyebags deeper and darker than the ones on Tedesco's worn face.
The man looked as if hell itself had descended upon him, but what shocked Aldo the most was the hair.
It is long. Shoulder length, unkempt. Thick strands of silver tangling together to form a greasy, stiff mess. It didn't even sway as he walked on. Tedesco did not seem to care.
---
Goffredo Tedesco returns after eight months of radio silence. Aldo Bellini finds more than he bargained for.
