    Bessie was not what many people would consider a catch. And yet, Hosea loves her. And she loves him, even if he loves another too. That is okay. Bessie has room in her heart.

    Summary

    Molly pauses and considers all of this, scarf hanging between needles. She doesn't understand some of what Dutch says, not because she's incompetent, as she's heard some of these people say, but because to her it sounds like Wilde horseshit.

    "I think you've been readin' too much of that Evelyn bloke."

    Summary

    Hosea's always been a nice looking feller, but to see him so clearly — that is, behind a layer of gauze that made Dutch's taste for him more approachable than ever — had drawn sharp lines along his features, even when softened with product. He looks better in a Stetson, always, but there was a gentleness about him that kept him from catching in Dutch's throat.

    Summary

    “You are being gentle with him.”

    Essek stills his hand on Frumpkin’s back, arching a questioning eyebrow. Frumpkin looks over his shoulder in indignant protest, but before he can so much as merp, Caleb has scooped him into his lap. The cat’s eyes fall closed with contentment as Caleb takes his face in both hands and rubs his thumbs in firm circles.

    “Cats are not so fragile,” he explains. “They like a little bit of-- here.”

    And then Caleb reaches out and takes his hand, and Essek is afraid to breathe.

    Summary

    From then on, Caleb’s carefully laid plans of courting Essek had been tossed aside in favor of slow, loving kisses shared over half translated books and morning tea.

    “How about this,” Essek says primly, sitting up against the headboard and folding his hand in his lap, “Outside, you continue with your plans to court me, and I will act accordingly. But here—“

    or, Caleb's plans to properly court Essek are ruined, but it's ok because that means they can kiss more.
