Summary
Something has to be in the water. All of a sudden, Thomas is clingy like a koala, and on the other end, the Holy Father has chosen late-night excursions to "help" Aldo "practice" city driving to renew his license.
Sure, Aldo may rejoice being laved with so much attention after losing the papacy. He's only human, after all.
However, Vincent's and Thomas' relationship is rapidly cooling, and he finds himself grasping onto both men.

Summary
All Aldo wanted was peace, quiet, and doomscrolling at three am after a long day of meetings in LA. Instead, he had made the mistake of telling Vincent about sea turtles living in a nearby river. Now, him and Thomas are held hostage on an impromptu urban safari while Aldo digs himself further and further into the past.

Summary
Lawrence’s ballot had been crushed in his hand, and he watched the poor scrutineers unfurl his slip of paper and smooth it out.
Floating on plywood in the ocean, Lawrence was too gone to write down the tallies. He prayed, wordlessly.
“Help me, Tomasso. It’s slippery…”

The Conclave stretches on, leaving Thomas and Tedesco to face off. Thomas spirals.

Summary
When Cardinal Thomas Lawrence confronts Aldo Bellini with evidence of Tremblay’s simony, their fight takes a different, unexpected turn. Instead of retreating into silence, Aldo lashes out, arguing that survival and action matter more than spotless moral purity. What begins as a bitter clash between two old friends (and most important people in the Church’s hierarchy) becomes the spark that once again pushes Aldo into the center of the conclave and onto a path neither he nor Thomas had foreseen.
Pulled between doubt and duty, Aldo steps forward, his campaign shaped as much by passionate speeches as by late-night plotting with Giulio Sabbadin, and the complicated loyalty of Thomas Lawrence. To his horror, Aldo finds himself caught between friendship, longing, faith, and the unbearable reality of becoming pope.
A canon divergence ‘what if’ with political drama, lots of long speeches, hurt/comfort, scheming, intrigue, and plenty of moral dilemmas. Endgame Lawrellini.
