Summary
And they could have had many more of those nights, wrapped together in true vulnerability, and she wouldn't hate it, and he wouldn't hate her elusive nature, because there would be nothing to prove. She'd be the ever moving, ever turning, ever changing ocean. He'd be the stagnant, set in his ways, but supportive and cradling sand.

Summary
And the next time he looked up it was from between her legs, and that feeling came crawling back, because she was laying flat, her eyes on the ceiling, and he wondered if it was so she could picture someone younger in his place. If it was the man with the lighter, or maybe the bartender, or one of the other many faceless to him people that she had danced around.

Summary
So he found himself on the peeling leather, watching her, until eventually she started to watch him. She'd excuse herself from the boy failing in his conquest, and lean against the bar next to him, just so. He'd do the familiar dance, offer to buy her a drink, coax her to take the seat next to him, tell her she was something dangerous, place a warm hand on her knee, and then just a little higher.

Summary
In the corridor was a sign, weathered and rusted, but poignant all the same. TO DEFILE A GRAVE IS TO DEFILE THE MAKER. And yet, with each passing year in university, notes of certain students would become increasingly detailed. Incredibly rendered tendons and muscle structures, pages and pages of fine charcoal drawings of bones tilted in all manners of articulation. When questioned, these students would simply say they did the drawings during regular study, when they were given access to official cadavers all while picking dirt from their fingernails. And the faculty would simply turn a blind eye, because what evidence did they truly have? And if they benefitted from the knowledge gained, well there was no point in wasting such an opportunity.
Grave robbing is the well-known secret of top anatomy students, and Emmrich Volkarin is behind in his studies

Summary
To be truthful, he couldn’t blame her for the distance the last couple days. Iris. It was undeniable that something had shifted that night and it would not allow them to simply go back to the before of it all. Wouldn’t allow him, rather. Not when he now knew the wooden scent that clung to her, the softness of the chiffon scarf and her hair and skin. Not when he heard her fear laid bare, and now knew her as Iris. For you, she had said, and it quickly invaded him. Dragging him back to the gardens in the dead of night like some criminal to steal just a few more affections from her. For her. The patch of irises was well known to him, and that all consuming part of him he had tried so hard to contain for years now had so fully cracked open under the meaning he gleaned from it. And it didn’t take long to transplant a few of those thriving flowers to the forgotten corner she thought he was unaware of. With one, of course, to bring to her.
The yearning to know and be known in the midst of a world ending threat, mostly in between moments of Rook and Emmrich

Summary
Agoraphobic artist Mirwen Ingellvar is hopelessly in love with her neighbor, Emmrich Volkarin. She doesn't have a hope of him ever noticing her, so rather than finding the courage to ask him on a date, she pours her repressed feelings into her macabre paintings.
Divorced anatomist Emmrich Volkarin is in love with an artist named “Rook.” He's never met them nor seen their face, but forming an unrequited parasocial attachment is easier than pining for his lovely neighbor, Mirwen Ingellvar.

Summary
A boy born brilliant calls something that remembers too much. Years pass. The dead don’t stay dead, love never stays, and immortality asks for more than flesh. Something like care. Something like kindness.
He is, and has always been, unbearably lovesick.
