    Summary

    And look: this whole thing could probably be resolved with a single honest conversation. He’s sure that with a little communication they could all manage to come to some arrangement. In fact, Patrick is pretty certain that he could fix their marriage himself by finally getting them both into bed at the same time. But Art is extremely reticent to voice what he actually wants, and Tashi can’t do anything without making it into a game, so here they are, each sneaking into Patrick’s bed and pretending that they’re mad about it.

    Patrick has no problem voicing what he wants or being direct. He wants Art. And he wants Tashi. If they could get their shit together and realize that they both want him, too, he’d probably be the happiest man in the goddamn world.

    Summary

    “Tashi,” he says softly. “I thought we talked about me retiring next season.”

    Everything stops.

    “What?” she says. It comes out sharp, although she hadn’t meant it to. “You’re still on that?”

    ***

    Art retires. Patrick moves in. And Tashi has to keep her feet moving, or else she'll drown.

    Summary

    Tashi disliked Patrick’s text, just because it made her feel all warm and fuzzy inside. “I told him that yes, I do think he should bring more than three pairs of underwear for a week long trip, and that we are here.”

    Art was quiet for a few seconds. And then, voice low – “surely he owns more than three pairs of underwear.”

    Tashi rolled her eyes. It was a characteristic and yet unfounded worry. “We’ve seen him in more than three different pairs of underwear.”

    “I would really like to stop thinking about Patrick’s underwear, actually.” Art’s uneasy fingers found the steering wheel again. Tashi’s kept tapping against her phone. What a pair, they were. Tashi couldn’t wait to add Patrick’s leg bounce into the equation and then spend three days straight trapped in a car with them all echoing off of one another.

    Tashi, Art, and Patrick drive across the country to help Patrick move and find themselves in another hotel room.

    Summary

    "I think there's something wrong with me." It's a whisper dragged from Samira's lips, from the very depth of her.

    "I think I might be a bad person." Chokes on it, on the pain, on the terrible truth, the indictment of her soul, of her morality, of her humanity. The evidence - plain and simple - that Samira Mohan was rotten to the core.

    “I promise I’m not stalking you,” Samira says straight away, without even knowing she was going to.

    Abbot raises his eyebrows and says, “I didn’t think you were, especially considering that we arrived after you both times.”

    So he’d noticed, Samira thinks, and then tries to not think it.

    In the year after the annulment, Ani learns — again — who she is.

    Summary

    Upon learning of his sister’s abduction, Brandon Stark is persuaded to practice patience at Brynden Tully’s behest. Together, they lead a search party that heads not for the Red Keep, but for Prince Rhaegar himself. This puts a wedge in Rhaegar’s plans and nearly throttles Lyanna’s dreams of freedom-- but only nearly. It falls to Ser Arthur Dayne to brave the task of escorting the wolfish lady to the Tower of Joy, and the pair embark on a journey that will seal their fates.

    They say that it’s the journey that’s important, not the destination; and indeed, it is the journey that makes all the difference.

    Watching Patrick serve, the ferocity in it, how alive he still felt across from him—no, Patrick isn’t dead to him, and Art isn’t dead inside at all. Miraculously, Patrick has managed to harness that spirit still flickering deep within, the one that’s been wilting, that dying spark.

    Afterward, in the hotel room, there’s a shift.

    Summary

    Patrick thinks of the shape of his name when it’s coming from Art’s mouth, of all the different ways it can sound. He thinks of the way Tashi says his name, the same letters and syllables with a different voice. He thinks of the way they might say each other’s names. He thinks of the way he says both of their names.

    Art, Tashi, Patrick, Tashi, Art, Patrick, Art, Tashi, Patrick, Patrick, Patrick . . .

    (or: it’s 2006, and the night in the hotel room ends differently, and it turns out a lot of things are different after that too).
