    Summary

    Take the four-month PRO contract, Kakashi had said. It’ll be fun, Kakashi had said. Well—no, what had actually happened was that Kakashi had taken Sasuke out to a bar in downtown Gatineau, bought him two shots of tequila, and said, “Here’s the thing. PRO is hell and you’ll be more miserable than you’ve ever been in your life, but if you can tough it out then I can transfer you back to the NCR as a program officer no problem. I’m talking indeterminate position, salary bump, benefits, vacation, prospects for advancement, the whole package. Think on it, okay?”

    And now here Sasuke was—back in the NCR, mildly scarred from four months working under Kabuto—only to find his apartment uninhabitable, his relationship moving faster than anticipated, his out-of-touch manager even more out-of-touch than he remembered, and the future of his brand new indeterminate-with-benefits-and-vacations position hinging on the achievement of a successful BBB on his language test. And his Excel sheets, left for four months in Naruto's incapable hands? Don't even get him started.

    Summary

    What Sasuke Uchiha wants is an indeterminate EC-02 Step 2 position with the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation that offers a decent salary, health benefits, paid vacation, and a manager who won't break all his Excel spreadsheets. What he gets is Naruto Uzumaki, an improbably attractive and unbearably annoying co-op student who eats way too much instant ramen and doesn't understand that "casual Friday" doesn't mean varsity sweatpants.

    Something's up between your Satellite-Officer and the new lieutenant you pulled into the Major Crimes Unit. Better internalize this thought if you want to understand the new dynamic brewing in C Wing.

    Summary

    One year later Dankovsky returns to Town-on-Gorkhon, paperthin and worn. Pushing aside his confused tangle of feelings for his old colleague, Artemy resolves to diagnose the nature of Dankovsky's malaise--and the cause of his return.

    Only in the old fishing hut outside of town is it safe, quiet enough to talk, and free from the memories that plague them both. But they can't escape the threads in their blood. As visions rise to the surface and pull at the tides of their veins, a choice must be made. The wound cannot be left to fester at any cost.

    (An after of sorts.)
