    Summary

    People weren’t supposed to want to be around the Great Transgressor, and Vicious wasn’t supposed to want them around. He thought he'd been doing a pretty good job of holding his companions at an arm's length. But when Aegis recognized him as his childhood friend, it became increasingly difficult to deny the feelings he wasn’t supposed to want.

    Aegis remembered who Vicious used to be, but there was still so much of him that he hadn’t reconciled with, so many feelings left to grow wild that had yet to be carefully checked. So much that he didn’t yet understand about the child he had befriended, and the man they called the Great Transgressor, no matter how much he wanted to.

    And when it rains, it pours.

    Summary

    "Wouldn'ta even learned to talk if it wasn't for all that singin'."

    Before a young Vicious met a traveling minstrel, words hadn't meant much to him then.

    Funny how a little tune can change things.

    Summary

    Felix stared down at the name scrawled along the bottom of the hardcover in front of him: Sylvain Jose Gautier.

    It wasn’t just the coincidence of the main character’s name anymore. Felix was halfway through the novel and well past that first sticking point. And it was far beyond the surface level quirks and character preferences that Ashe had initially pointed out: the love of meat and spicy food, the swords, the fondness for cats, the acerbic attitude (which Felix had to admit, begrudgingly, was accurate).

    No, this was personal… and intimate. Laid out on pages in front of Felix. It felt (and Felix flushed just thinking it): loving. For every twist and turn of Hugo’s story, the author, this Gautier guy, wrapped him in prose that felt equal parts honest and adoring. Somehow.

    OR: What to do when your friend recommends a book that is unmistakably about you even though you've never met the author - A Guide by Felix.

    Summary

    Aegis gets stabbed. What follows is several weeks of nightmarish social interactions, too much introspection, and Vicious' idea of a get well soon gift.

    Evidently, he recovers anyway.
