Summary
“Say you got married,” Robby found himself asking. “Would you wear your dress blues? Or civilian clothes?”
It had only been an idle thought, no different than any number of easy, directionless musings of the sort that often came over the two of them on mornings like this one, when no one had a shift to go to for at least thirty-six hours. Robby didn’t mean anything by it. But he regretted the words the instant they left his mouth, even before he saw the incredulous grin slide over Jack’s face.

Summary
“I mean,” the stranger said, “to suggest that perhaps we are compatriots in more ways than one? Men of that—how may I put it—that antique homeland of the mind; countrymen of Harmodius and Aristogeiton; fellow-mourners after Hyacinth; confrères in the licence grecque—”
“I am from County Down,” said Francis uncertainly.
At a sculpture gallery in Rome, a certain misunderstanding unfolds.

Summary
“You said you had a question,” Francis snapped, irritable already.
“Yes,” James said, flushed and resplendent still from the company next door—undaunted and loose-limbed in just the way that plucked cloying ire from a raw place in Francis. “How’s your chess game?”
A seduction.

Summary
They were going to break the sofa carrying on like that—James was sure of it—and they’d all get billed for it, just as they would for the rest of the wreckage they left behind. Smashed windows, busted instruments, red wine stains on the carpets, holes punched in the walls. If they kept it up they’d get kicked out of the studio, and the album would never get made, and the album, of course, was the last thing, the only thing, holding any of the rest together.
