Summary
There was depressingly little of the glitter the songs spoke of, dull gum-splattered streets rather than the paved gold ones that New York, New York song they liked to play made it sound like there would be. If I can make it there, I’ll make it anywhere. But if anything, Boris realised, eyeing up the hooded figures in an alleyway with a look like an enquiring Soviet spy, it was exactly as Potter said it would be.
Boris searches for all the places Theo described in rich detail beside a swimming pool, under the twisted sheet on his bed - his mother’s old haunts, Park Avenue - and walks along the streets he'd only ever imagined in the glare of Las Vegas sunlight. It's almost enough to know he's there, hidden and out of reach like the moon hung in the sky, until one evening, he appears.

Summary
He would do anything for her, he decides, but upon reflection, the corners of his mouth upturned, he realises he knew that already. Perhaps he always has.
In the light of the morning, Anne and Richard reflect on the night before, feelings they have held close to themselves for far too long and exactly what it is that they mean to each other. Featuring the sunrise through a bay window, two cups of tea and proof that actions can say more than words. Modern AU.

Summary
It isn’t easy being Anne Neville. Her law degree is falling to pieces, (philosophy is just so much more interesting) she has a horrible habit of blushing from the roots of her hair to her fingertips and worst of all, she has a ridiculous, long-lasting thing for Richard Plantagenet.
Anne's workload is snowballing so she'll have to give Ned's party a miss. Richard is determined not to let that happen. How can she possibly refuse? Featuring some library flirting, a very red-faced Anne and the first dustings of snow in December. Modern AU.
