Summary
When asked, a few years later, Alec will say that everything started going wrong when he pulled a dead child out of a river. It’s not true.
It all starts a few months before that. A few years, actually, if he’s being honest with himself (something he’s starting to find quite difficult), but much like a crack in a boat which is slowly sinking, he manages to ignore the issue until he’s already starting to drown.
or: a little journey into all that happened to alec before the latimer case

Summary
Maybe I wasn’t made for fashion. I’m too normal. I’m the problem. The industry can make or break a designer, and I’ve not gone either way yet, so that’s on me. No roaring successes, no devastating failures to drive my career in a darker, more compelling direction. András Zacher’s designs scream, wail, ache about the thick glass walls keeping him from the world, about how he sees society and yet doesn’t find himself in it.
I, on the other hand, fit in perfectly.
Milan Fashion Week, 2005(ish): Raffaele Scalise finds inspiration. Then he loses himself, loses inspiration, and finds himself. All in the space of a few months.
Oh, and he just about falls in love, too.

Summary
Alec raises his eyebrows, hands the cashier a wad of notes and wanders towards a table. If he wants to smile when Henchard follows him and takes the seat opposite him, well. He’s not about to admit it.
“I’m flattered that you're so concerned for my well-being.”Snippets of Alec and Tess before things started falling apart—or rather, just as things started to pull apart at the seams.

Summary
His arm twitches, as if he’s about to shake her hand but thinks better of it. “Dr. Hardy. Come in, take a seat.”
He looks as tired as she feels. He's probably no older than she is, mid-forties at most, but his cheekbones are too sharp and his every move too weary and as her eyes wander to the empty pot of low-fat, low-salt instant noodles on his desk, she wonders when the last time he had a home-cooked meal was.
Ellie feels like she's drowning. Her husband is a murderer and a paedophile, her son hates her, she can't return to the only place she's ever called home, she hates her job, she hates Brighton—and now she can't sleep.
She finds relief at a walk-in clinic.

Summary
The next drag of the cigarette is smooth, sits like a velvet mist in his lungs, and feels dangerously like he’s finding some sort of inner peace. “If I ever catch Daisy smoking, I’ll ground her for a month. No—I’ll tell her I’m disappointed in her, then I’ll ground her. And I’ll take her debit card.”
Hardy and Miller share a cigarette, a bottle of whisky, and some thoughts.

Summary
come for the week, you can sleep in my bed
and pass through my life like a dream through my head-
Suk’s throat tightens like a vice, and tears prick the corners of his eyes. He swallows them down, and carefully, he stands until he is face to face with Johan. “I know why you’re here,” he says, and it is the most certain of anything he’s been the entire night.

Summary
This is all I have to offer you, he tells the JB-in-his-head, who blinks resignedly back at him. He pictures himself dissolving into a mess of colors on a palette, JB dipping in a brush, the dull smear of paint brightening under his hands. This much he can trust JB with—JB has always seen the ugliest parts of him and turned them into something captivating, even he at once enthralled and sickened by what JB has made of him. Jude with Cigarette; Jude After Sickness; Jude, Alone —these are pieces of him that even he cannot recall, but JB seems to have memorized those versions of him down to the bone, down to expressions and gestures he hadn’t recognized as his own.

Honestly, Raph just wanted a normal hospital shift and a nice dinner afterwards for once in his life. Pity the fates just won’t let him.

Summary
Although it will surely end up being terribly embarrassing for him, Armin cannot refuse his sweet Faustyna’s peculiar request - even if all logic screams at him about how much of a horrible idea it is to let her observe as Emil, his other lover who she absolutely despises, drinks Armin's blood until he passes out.
(This work is a short and self-indulgent story set in the world of a certain project of mine.)
