    Summary

    “I believe you have been sexually active throughout your life?”

    Aldo was genuinely amazed at how Vincent maintained an even tone. He briefly looked at Thomas, who most definitely was the source of this information. Thomas swallowed and covered his hand with his own.

    Summary

    "Lullabies do not make kinslayers. This he knows. And yet, it never stops the worry from curdling in his chest, the only constant of all the cradles he has sung beside. For the tune endures after all, and nothing empty can truly endure: every vacant hroä holds a fragment of the fëa that once forsook it. Can a song be washed of meaning? Is tenderness immune to ideology? Groping about blindly in the dark of their dreams, Elrond had always worried that he was not watering the crops for his children to harvest, but salting the earth before the seeds could be planted."
    ___________________________
    At a parade celebrating the the founding of Imladris, Elrond spots an unforgettable face in the crowd, a face he’s not seen for millennia. To his delight and apprehension, it is indeed Maglor Fëanorian, who brings with him two things. First, a suspiciously tame monkey he insists isn’t a metaphor. Second, the groundshaking admission that Elwing and Eärendil’s sons were not named Elrond and Elros.

    Or, a love letter to Maglor, Elwing, and Elrond.

    Summary

    Vincent Benítez has never thought of himself as a particularly desperate person. Still, he is only a man, and every man has his limits. It shouldn’t surprise him as much as it does that his limit is Thomas Lawrence... or is it Aldo Bellini?

    In which Vincent attempts to claim Thomas for his own and gets more than he bargained for.

    Summary

    Innocent is looking out of the window as though he can see something more there than the blackness of a howling winter night. “I find myself wishing for his guidance.”

    “If it is of any comfort,” Aldo tries, “He trusted Thomas to steer the Church through the Conclave. He was sure of his integrity like he was of no one else’s here. And Thomas has complete faith in you. You can be sure of his counsel.”

    “I know I can. He’s been a blessing.” At the mention of Thomas, Innocent had brightened, but there is something searching in his expression when he looks back at Aldo, like he hadn’t quite gotten the answer he wanted.

    Or: Aldo and Vincent discover that they have some things in common.
