Summary
Saparata’s grip was warm, steady. Familiar.
“As my guard,” Fluixon added lightly, “or as my escort?”
Saparata’s thumb brushed over his knuckles. “Whichever makes you blush more, my prince.”
Fluixon scoffed, turning away before Saparata could see the heat rise to his cheeks. “Careful. Speak like that again and I might start thinking you enjoy this.”
“Oh, I definitely do,” Saparata replied easily as he led him down the corridor. “You clean up nicely too, you know.”
Fluixon shot him a look. “You’re meant to be protecting me, not distracting me.”
Saparata leaned in just enough to murmur, “Multitasking.”
Fluixon shook his head, lips betraying him with the hint of a smile as the music from the ballroom grew louder ahead.
or
A collection of moments between Fluixon and his knight—snapshots of quiet years, stolen glances, and the kind of love that grows slowly, unnoticed, until it becomes everything.

Summary
“Here’s the deal,” Atlas says, voice clipped and short, stuffing his wallet back into a pocket to let an off-white envelope appear in his palm. “You’ve been robbing people at my show — it’s bad for my reputation. Frankly, I shouldn’t even be talking to you, and the only reason that I am is because I know telling you to stop would only make you double down and do it even more.”
“You don’t know that,” Bosco says determinedly, and Charlie can’t stop the grin on his face as he turns to look at him. Bosco’s always contrarian solely for the sake of it, determined to disagree only because he can, and it would appear that not even meeting one of their biggest idols could stop him. “We could totally still be rational people.”
“You pick pockets at pop-up magic shows,” Atlas says derisively, “you’re not rational people in the slightest. I know you’re getting a pretty good score, and me asking you to stop while offering no incentive is practically useless. So, here — I’m paying you to quit robbing my audience. Now, begone.”
—
After the Horsemen break up, J. Daniel Atlas isn't doing very well — until three kids keep robbing his audience. Somehow, they grow on him.

Summary
He wants to be who the Eye thinks he is. He wants to be more than a magician. He wants to be great, and if Lionel Shrike set him on that path, then maybe he'll be able to do turn around and do the same for the next person in line. Sitting by the tree is a reminder of that, he supposes, a quiet monument to the finally-untarnished legacy of a man who made the world believe in something better. It's routine, and it's comforting, and Daniel's never been one for comfort, but the routine is the anchor he needs while he waits for their next show.
That anchor isn't necessarily supposed to involve a skinny, lanky preteen that talks quickly when he's nervous and calls him a dick within five minutes of meeting him and sticks out his tongue when Daniel calls him one right back, but he'd be lying if he said he wasn't used to the kid's presence now.
...
Three of the Horsemen encounter three children in New York in the year between Five Pointz and London, and end up bringing them home. Somehow, it feels like they're all right where they're supposed to be.

...
Bosco is a little bit disgruntled to realize that Jack Wilder is a responsible adult, and horrified to realize that he's about to start crying in front of him.

Summary
If he had to describe himself, Flambae would need three words, and three words alone:
Hot, strong, heroic. Two of these were objective.
If he had to tell the truth?
Chad exists in pieces. Most of them not good. But trying their best not to be worse.
They certainly wouldn’t be good enough for Mecha Man.
Which makes every news outlet in Torrance deciding he and Robert must be fucking all that more confusing.
Or,
Everyone in Torrance thinks Flambae and Mecha Man are dating. Robert has no issues with that.
