    Summary

    Harry finds himself in the liminal space between Martinaise and actually having to be Harry Du Bois again. He needs to return to his apartment, and his job, and his life, but the prospect is terrifying; everything that was once him is everything he can't allow himself to be ever again. Kim helps him make the transition, and Harry pines wildly over him. They eat food and talk about the homo-sexual underground. Harry tries not to cry a lot.

    Summary

    YOU — You fidget with your fingers for a moment, and then look back at him. “Are you okay, Kim?”

    PERCEPTION [Easy: Success] — He blinks twice, surprised. Then he looks away, turning his gaze to the violet and blue sky.

    EMPATHY [Medium: Success] — He feels uncomfortable, sometimes, having such raw concern and sincerity pouring out from you with only him as recipient. You’re… intense, on a good day.

    KIM KITSURAGI — “I’m alright,” he says. His fingers twitch, like he’s itching for a cigarette. “It’s been… a long week.”

    ELECTROCHEMISTRY [Trivial: Failure] — Oh, it’s been long, and it’s been hard. Makes you itch for the neck of a bottle in your hand, neurotransmitters firing wild, fireworks behind your eyes.

    (or; Kim has a rough week. Harry helps, in his own way.)

    Summary

    Mike smiles, and Will lets his hand fall back into the grass. "Yeah?" he asks, not- not disbelievingly, per se, just gently questioning, like he knows there's more to the story because there always is, even if Will rarely grants him the full picture. "What are you thinking?"

    Warmth washes over him, and Will lets his eyes fall shut, that strange calm still washing over him. Mike shifts a little closer, and Will can tell he's peering down at him even though his eyes are closed. Mike's hand finds Will's shoulder, brushing it lightly, and Will feels something resembling content.

    "I was thinking," he huffs out, skin prickling with anticipation, but there's Mike's hand again, trailing over his bicep, quelling the anxiety, "that I love you."

    It's a lazy summer day when Will decides to bite the bullet.
