    Summary

    When Roz starts speaking, frantically letting out Russian words from his hospital bed, Troy jumps in fear. “Ty emu uzhe pozvonila? Gde mama?

    While Troy might not know Russian, or any other Slavic language that might have offered him some sort of context, he understands the word for mother. His heart clenches in his chest. Calling for your mom, especially when you’re hurt and confused feels instinctive. Troy is pretty sure he’d do the same thing. But the thought of coming out of your dazed state while desperately wanting your mom, and the loss of your mom coming crashing down on you must be a different type of agony.

    Roz starts speaking again, Russian coming to him easier than English must. “Mama? Gde moya mama?

    Summary

    ----
    "I vaguely remember you sitting in the corner last night, eyes in the cup."
    God, strike him down this instant. Hans was ready for judgment day.
    "Yes." He responded dryly.
    "You looked…I don't know..."
    "Pathetic?"
    "Troubled. With…emotions. Pained with misery."
    Hans huffed.
    "Oh, you're a poet now?"
    Henry chuckled, shaking his head.
    "That was hardly poetic. Wait." He looked at Hans as if a thought had appeared in his head. "Is it of an amorous nature?"
    Hans did his best confused frown. He should become an actor at this point.
    "Of what nature?"
    "Oh, so it is!"
    Maybe not an actor, then.
    ----

    Hans Capon is jealous, miserable, and hopelessly in love, and Henry makes him talk about it, not knowing he's the person to blame for all the trouble.

    A collection of character studies, relationship dynamics and idiots in love, following Hans and Henry through their relationship, seen through different POVs as they both realize what's worth living for.

    Summary

    Hansry - seen through Mutt's eyes.

    After the events of KCD2, Henry and Hans spend time together at the Devil’s Den. Their relationship is still largely a secret, but there’s no hiding from Mutt, the best boy in Bohemia. Of course, he doesn’t fully understand why his two masters playfight so often or go on hunting trips without hunting. Still, Mutt is just happy to be by their side – no thoughts, only bliss.

    Summary

    Benítez tilts his head a fraction closer, conspiratorial. “It’s a pity our devices have been confiscated for the time that we’re sequestered here. I would’ve suggested sneaking off to exchange more music recommendations since you’ve demonstrated taste.”

    “Dally any longer, and I fear that neither of us will be in anyone’s good graces,” Thomas replies as Ray sweeps past them. “But I would’ve…” He glances furtively at Benítez; for an instant, it’s the thrill of misbehaving at seminary again. “I would’ve liked that.”

    “There’s a computer in the office.”

    “We’d have to cross Sister Agnes.”

    “Ah. Never mind that idea, then.”

    Oh, the things I would’ve liked had we been young men together, Thomas thinks wistfully as they approach the dining room. I would’ve liked you.
