    Summary

    When Thomas Lawrence came by the papal apartments that evening, he came, unsurprisingly, with a bundle of papers under his arm.

    Vincent tried on and discarded four separate teasing comments about it, but didn’t get to decide on one before Thomas silently handed them over, and he realized they were newspapers, opened and refolded over the weekly comics, his favorite. Three of them, one for each week he’d been away.

    Ah, he thought, with the feeling of a sudden hard deceleration in his chest, the press it put on his heart. Ah. All right then.

    Summary

    Shane is still learning that he doesn't have to be perfect in his own relationship. Ilya is still learning the rules of Shane's bad days. So when Shane tries to push him away after a crushing loss, it leads to a tense argument. But ten years of rivalry are no match for Shane’s tears; the second he starts to cry, Ilya folds like a house of cards.

    Or: Shane tries to starve himself as punishment for losing, Ilya tries to feed him, and it turns into a very soft night of pampering because Ilya is legally incapable of staying angry at a crying Shane.

    Summary

    He startles out of his thoughts when Tedesco coughs. He is grinning, now, like he knows something Aldo doesn't. “No?” He takes a pointed drag. He must think blowing out plumes of flavoured smoke makes him look attractive. “I always thought he had very beautiful blue eyes, our Tommaso. A fine face—one might think he is a continental man. Do you think he's kept to his vows of celibacy?”

    “I'm sure he has,” Aldo says neutrally. Thomas is not an easy man to tempt.

    ---

    Cardinals Bellini and Tedesco consider Thomas Lawrence, the Virgin Mary, and each other.
