    Summary

    Instead of a smugly grinning Howeitat, there stands El Aurens, and the first thing Ali can think of is that even the war could not make this man less beautiful.

    The expression on Lawrence’s face is uncertain, but for the first time since he returned from Cairo, there is a little of his old fire behind those eyes. “I did not know you to blaspheme, Sherif.”

    Ali huffs, stepping away and wiping fiercely at his tears. “I did not know you to care, English.”

    “No,” Lawrence sighs, suddenly serious. “I haven’t done very well with that, have I?”

     

    (or, what could have happened if Lawrence overheard one critical conversation in the courtyards of Damascus...)

    Summary

    "Not all of us here enjoy the privilege of being famous because we appeared on BBC," Ali begins, his mouth twisting into a sly smile. That might seem strange to Lawrence, but he doesn't really care. "Are the English so easily impressed by a little polished eloquence and a pleasant smile?" he asks sincerely, unaware of the unintentional compliment he's paid to the man in front of him.

    A man who certainly needs no further confirmation of both his cultural background and his handsome physical appearance.

    "Oh, so you find my smile pleasant?" is the point-blank question Lawrence asks Ali, and Ali wants nothing more than to wipe that cocky expression off his face by any means necessary.

    With a punch, possibly.

    Summary

    They weren’t supposed to grow this close. L’s not supposed to be his best friend, he shouldn’t have become this important and now Light has to kill him, because there’s no other way for his plans to move forward, no other way for him to get everything he wants.
    But at this point how could any of it even be what he wants if L has to be dead for him to get it? If Light has to be the one who kills him?

     

    A little bathtub hurt/comfort set after Light gets his memories back and has to come to terms with having to kill the one person who truly sees him enough to have always seen all of him.
