    Summary

    You come down the next morning to the fishing shack in the village to find the detective bathing in the sea.
    “Detective,” you say. “I’m pleased to note you availing yourself of the facilities.”
    “Kim, it’s fucking freezing,” he says, seriously. His hair hangs wet and limp, darker like this, and his chops draggle down his face. He looks like a half-drowned dog you had once seen Eyes pull out of L’Esperance.
    You’ve got to let him use your shower, you decide.

    Set in Martinaise.

    Summary

    You’re both extremely drunk the first time it happens.
    The same with the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth times.

    YOU: Why does this keep happening?
    HALF LIGHT: Because it’s scary to do it sober.
    YOU: For Kim, too?
    COMPOSURE: Sure. But for different reasons. The lieutenant is tightly repressed. Imagine all that longing crammed into his 167 cm - 10 stone frame. It is unspeakable.
    CONCEPTUALIZATION: It’s tangled in there so tight he can’t even pull it out and go through it. It’s all just…there.
    YOU: Doesn’t that hurt?
    PAIN THRESHOLD: Immensely.

    Summary

    Kim and Harry walk in Central Jamrock.

    He approaches as the song ends, and begins to talk to them. He asks if they can show him the moves - and attempts to replicate the footwork by himself. He laughs. The woman says something; he gestures. He takes her hand by the fingertips only - just barely holding it. Saying something to the musicians, the music starts up again, the same song but slowed down, and she puts her other hand on Harry’s shoulder, and, pushing him, guides him through the steps. They do it once, then twice, picking up speed, and then, suddenly, they’re dancing. Harry is moving carefully. Light feet, hips - a spin - his movements light and precise, perfectly in his body. He’s lost in it, you see, the two of them dancing on the street, dark cold of springtime. The woman’s red dress and Harry’s green jacket, flashing flowers in the dark. They move fluidly, gracefully. Watching them, you feel something huge and painful swell in your chest, and you rub at it, idly.

    “Don’t you want to try, Kim?” Harry calls out, still looking down, watching their feet. A flashy dance, you think, fast, not without its charms. You prefer them slower, quieter. More drawn out.

    Summary

    Kim Kitsuragi is a careful man, measured and precise. He weighs the pros and cons of action, he looks before he leaps - and rarely does he leap.
    And yet - Kim Kitsuragi has a fantasy.
    It is a ridiculous fantasy, Kim thinks, he is a light sleeper, and yet - well, it is a fantasy. Anything is permitted, anything allowed. “I’ll make it so good for you, baby,” Harry pants in his ear, hot and close, and Kim doesn’t hear it, or maybe he does, maybe it is in his dream.
