Summary
“Maybe—“
“Yusuf, I have loved you for over a century but if you even attempt to sell me on the concept of platonic fingering I will walk away from you now and never look back.”
In the earliest days of their immortal quintet, Yusuf and Nicolò start a bet neither of them can win.
Inspired by the recent mini-comic 'When There Were Five'. -

Summary
Andy aches now. A soreness that lingers.
Tiny muscle aches and wayward cramps that are nothing, barely even a sensation, the kind of thing that her mind hadn’t even bothered to register for millennia. Only they don’t go away, anymore. It would be better if they built to something. If it was anything but the steady constancy of a subtle ache that wears at her nerves the way a trickle of water can carve deep grooves in a stone, given enough time. Andy had become accustomed to being stronger than stone, but perhaps she was always made of the same stuff.
And it’s only now that she’s finally lived to witness her own erosion.
