    Summary

    On any other day, he’d try much harder to prevent himself from being this careless, from giving in to trivial wants and allowing himself to ruin the friendship they’d so carefully built between them. But the buzz and the music and his senses filled so entirely with Jeremy Jeremy Jeremy made that impossible. And besides, Jeremy wasn’t stopping him. If anything, Jean was starting to realize that Jeremy was enjoying this, too.

    “Jean,” He breathed. “You’re killing me.”

    The wrecked rasp in his voice made something stir in Jean’s gut. He felt giddy, stupid, intoxicated by the man behind him who would never know that he was quickly becoming Jean’s everything.

    He didn’t feel capable of coherence anymore, so he said, perhaps stupidly, “I know, Jeremy. You’re killing me too.”

    Summary

    “I don’t know who I am without my work, anymore," Wilde exhales, "and I don’t – I don’t know how to find out. We saved the world, and so much of it I’ve never seen as myself, just as whatever purpose I was fulfilling there.” Zolf can feel him breathe deeply next to him. He’s staring into the distance, brow furrowed.
    “You could do that now,” he suggests, and he isn’t sure why he says it, or what he’s trying to achieve by it. “Travel, I mean. See the world, or whatever.”
    “Yes, I could,” Wilde says slowly. Then he adds, like the words are spilling out of him, “You could come with me, if you wanted.”
    Zolf breathes in, as slow as he can. He’d known, from the moment they’d started talking, that this is where they might end up, and still the proposal takes him by surprise.
    “You don’t have to,” Wilde is saying over the drumming in Zolf’s chest, “but you said you didn’t know what to do, so…”
    “I’d like that,” he blurts out, taking himself by surprise with the certainty of it. “I think I’d like that.”

    Summary

    'He steps forward, awkward and uncomfortable, but there. He places his hand on Oscar’s shoulder and lets the man turn his body into Zolf’s chest.
    And Wilde weeps.
    It’s like a dam has broken, his tears coming heavy and fast, the sobs tearing themselves from his chest as he clings to Zolf’s shirt with trembling fingertips.'

    Five times Zolf sees Oscar cry and one time that is reversed.
