    Summary

    His eyes narrowed, stare sharper than blades. The scrutiny was almost familiar: the arms crossed over his chest, stiff within his suit, the silence that stifled the chatter of people around them until there was nothing but the seconds passing by. Yet, his judgment was different. His frigidity remained only on the surface, melted in the candlelight that danced along his skin, painted his sharp features with hues of golden warmth.

    Then, finally, he spoke. “What business do you have with an ex-con, hardly disentangled from the Reaper’s clutches? Surely, there is far better society to be found in this ballroom.”

    Klavier nearly smiled at the poeticism of his words. “Verzeihen Sie,” he said, “I merely took an interest in meeting my partner in turning out the lights of the law.”

    Klavier Gavin meets Simon Blackquill at the Prosecutor's Office 2028 New Year's gala.

    Summary

    Klavier Gavin woke up for work three hours before work began, slowly easing himself out of bed so as not to disturb its other occupant and pry him from the sleep he had been so deprived of for seven long years.

    Simon Blackquill was, in fact, woken up by this.

    Summary

    Simon kneeled down next to the couch. Then, slowly, he lifted a container of soup from the bag and dropped it down atop the unmoving heap that rested on the cushions.

    Klavier woke with a start.

    “I’ve returned from Whole Foods.”

    The Twisted Samurai (Simon Blackquill) unsheathes his blade (reusable shopping bag) and bravely ventures to the battlefield (Whole Foods), not to bring honor upon his name (self-interest), but at the wishes of his ailing master (Klavier Gavin with a headache) to retrieve the fabled yet potent elixir of healing (Nana's Chicken Noodle Soup).

    Summary

    When Klavier spoke again, it was with a smile. “You’ll buy my albums when I’m famous, yeah? Simon?”

    He looked up. He wasn’t sure why he heated up the way he did, seeing that bright-eyed smile shining his way, hearing his name fall from those lips like the chorus of a new song. He only knew that he did. “Maybe,” he said, pulling as much petulance from its syllables as he could. “As long as you’re not a one-hit wonder.”

    He chuckled. “I’m going to miss you when you’re gone, you know. You’re my favorite upperclassman.”

    “Well, I look forward to when we reunite at the prosecutor’s office.”

    “Maybe,” he said, drawing out the word with a smirk. “As long as you haven’t worked yourself to death by then.”

    In which Simon Blackquill and Klavier Gavin were acquainted at Themis Legal Academy in 2017 and reacquaint in 2027 after the arrest of a brother and a release from death row.

    Summary

    Apollo paused, the pixels of his face drawn with tension through the laptop’s blue light. "I’m thinking about coming back for the holidays.”

    Athena’s heart fluttered like Khura'in's pink butterflies, soaring across the sea. “Huh? You didn’t come home for the holidays last year—did something happen? Why now?”

    “Last year, I was dealing with a 23-year-old backlog of cases. This year, there are more attorneys to help take care of them. Some are coming out of hiding, some are just law students… Granted, there’s not a lot,” he scoffed, “but I’ve been able to mentor enough that they can at least handle civil cases without floundering."

    “But I thought all the cases were piling up—you were just complaining about it!”

    “That’s… why I want to come back.” Though his admission was simple, strained by the stress of Khura’in that had become so familiar, there was an uneasy drag to his words. Tentatively, he muttered, “I need a break.”

    Athena hadn't counted on Apollo coming back overseas for the holidays. She also hadn't counted on taking a flight to Khura'in just to fly back overseas with him.
