    Summary

    Erik and Charles (known only to each other by the letters inscribed on their wrists) are meant to be together, soulmates, destined for the most powerful kind of love and connection a human being can experience.

    But they are separated in almost every possible way- by distance, by circumstance, by language, by war. Their chances of success- of finding one another in the labyrinth of the world- are very slim. There is a reason why most people never find their soulmates.

    But of course, Charles and Erik aren't ordinary children-

    They have their gifts.

    Summary

    On the life of his whole career, Lando would swear he doesn’t mean for it to become a routine, the café.

    Only, on Monday, Lewis stops technique to compliment Max’s extensions during centre adage – Max’s – and then directs his stupid, stuck-up, closed-lipped grin at Lando when he fucks up the timing of the same combination during his group’s rotation at it. And Lando can’t sit around the lobby avoiding everybody’s eyes after, feels like he’ll suffocate if he does, so he wraps his scarf around his neck another time and trudges the same four doors down, shoulders through the same door.

    “Morning!” Oscar calls from behind the counter.

    (Alternatively: Lando is a ballet dancer in timeout. Oscar works in a coffee shop. This is a Hallmark Christmas movie.)

    Summary

    “Don’t give me up,” Ancel said. “Don’t. You want me.”

    “Ancel-” Berenger said, his expression pained.

    “When we kissed, you-”

    “Ancel,” Berenger said sharply. When Ancel flinched back, his eyes softened. “I’m sorry. It’s dangerous for you to be with me and you know it. This is for your own good.”

     

    (At the end of Pet, Berenger ends their contract. It only goes downhill from there.)

    Summary

    The first time Ancel found a gray hair he nearly screamed. Except Berenger was asleep in the other room so he took a careful breath instead. He plucked the hair and burned it over the flame of the lamp standing on his dressing table, going back to combing his hair with slow even motions until it shone.

    If he spent extra time that night inspecting the rest of his locks for other traitorous signs of gray, then no one was around to see, or mention it.
