    Summary

    Asterius wasn’t sure why his half-sister’s ex kept coming to his gym and tagging him in workout pictures afterwards, but he wasn’t complaining; it helped him keep track of their shared workouts.

    It was a little weird that these pictures were all of Theseus shirtless and sweaty, but that was how good workouts usually ended.

    Summary

    “I owe you an explanation of what I said before, about the heroes Achilles and Patroclus,” Asterius starts.

    “Nonsense, Asterius! You feel better now, do you not?”

    “No.” Theseus’s eyebrows lift, and Asterius snorts. “Yes, I feel better. No, it is not nonsense.”

    “Speak, then!”

    “I know little of friendship. If we are friends—”

    “We are! From the depths of my heart, we are!”

    Asterius casts his gaze away briefly, focusing on the axe under his hands instead. Theseus is sincere as the sun, and can be equally difficult to look at.

    “If we are friends, they do things we do not.”
     

    After a chance encounter reveals what their bond could be, Asterius tries to navigate his feelings for Theseus, and seeks some advice.

    Summary

    Maul dares not move, not think, not breathe - even as the child comes closer and closer, and reaches out one small, pale hand to touch the hilt of his blade. Because this is not a child.

    Children do not move silently across the sand, feet barely grazing the surface. Children do not cast two shadows. Children’s forms do not shift and warp, fluid as water. Children’s eyes do not burn like that.

    Children do not have that many teeth.

    Summary

    Cody was still staring at him. Fox wasn't sure what made him keep talking.

    "It's always the shinies who think they're invincible," he muttered, "who think they're above the rules."

    Cody nodded slowly.

    "Yeah," he said, voice a little hoarse, "that's usually how I lose them too."

    Fox watched as his little brother finished the rest of his drink and stared down into his empty cup.

    It wasn't the same, he wanted to say. That's a battlefield, this is the centre of the Republic, it's different. The truth is that it's not as different as it should be.
