    Summary

    Quentin Coldwater, high-fantasy wunderkind and eternal sucker for a good hero, only needs one thing: to finish the last book of his trilogy.

    Eliot Waugh, genre-busting enfant terrible and antihero (at best) of his own not-so-thinly-veiled life story, doesn’t need anything at all.

    A middle-of-winter book tour reveals, one snow-covered city at a time, that there may be something else they both (desperately) need. If only they can let themselves have their own happy ending.

    Summary

    At first, Arthur wondered if Noel hadn’t noticed yet, but he knew better. He was a detective, for god’s sake. Of course he’d immediately notice the gun.

    (In which Noel comes home early to find Arthur staring down the barrel of a gun.)

    Summary

    When Ronan glanced up at the mirror, it wasn’t sweat he saw on his face, but nightwash. A myriad of thoughts surged to the front of his mind. He was falling asleep; he was dying; he couldn’t remember the last time he’d slept for longer than two hours; he was going to be single by the end of the day; he was going to miss his flight; he wanted to cry; he wanted to drink; he wanted to reach out and hold Adam’s hand.

    or: ronan's always the car crash.

    Summary

    “No, it’s not that,” John cuts him off. “Or– well. Not just that. You’ve been acting strangely all this week.”

    “‘Strangely,’” Arthur repeats, with no small amount of disdain.

    “...Distant, Arthur. Distracted.”

    -

    The first sign is when Arthur falls asleep mid-conversation.

    Summary

    Arthur,” John snapped, trying to grab his attention. His tone was undercut by the fact that his voice was breaking on the sharp emotions. “This is the third time I find you staring at that gun. I’m not going to wait until I find you dead in here.”

    ---

    Some comfort in a pit of despair.
