Summary
She frowned, gently turning his hand over in hers. The thought flashed in her mind, that she might have to help fix him. She had thought about it before, what might be under his metal skin, the mechanisms that let him walk and talk and play guitar. “All of the sudden? Has this ever happened before?”
Orville looked at her, he opened his mouth to answer and then hesitated. He was sitting in open-mouthed silence, his gaze fell and he started watching her bend each of his fingers individually, feeling all over his palm as she did so, trying to ascertain what was wrong.

Summary
It was very late when Miles and Julian were booted out of Quarks at closing. They had long been the last two in the bar, their darts game lying abandoned as they sat together at the bar. Julian was positively slumped against the chief's shoulder and Miles himself found it difficult to control the way he stared at Julian. He would never usually have admitted it, nary put it into a coherent, singular thought, but Julian was quite an attractive man, almost annoyingly so.

There was something almost like pain, a sensation that was as close to a sharp hurting that his ‘nerves’ were capable of producing, and a gasp that seemed, just for a moment, to fill the silent room.
