Summary
It's shocking, that in the face of a day so beautiful and bright, he would rather watch the slow spread of Jayce's smile as he examines the peaches a couple trees down.
"You okay?" Jayce's voice startles him.
Not okay, Viktor thinks, but doesn't say. What can he say, really, other than "when you hold that basket of summer peaches and the light becomes ensnared in your eyes I understand why Degas did his pastels. The Impressionists painted light because they were helpless to do anything else in its wake, and every second of every day you make me wish I were an artist so I could sketch the shape of you, if only to feel like I could do something other than just behold the magic of your hands, the smell of summer in your hair, the softness of your eyes. If only to have evidence that I was worthy of its witness, if only as a testimony that I could keep it safe."
or: Viktor’s car breaks down in small-town summer purgatory. Jayce is the only thing close to a mechanic in a 50 mile radius. Viktor learns to love more than just the local produce.

Brilliant. Utterly brilliant
Reread 10.10.2024 - RAAAAAAA this is so good. A masterclass in twisty world-building. Lovely prose. Such cool plotting. I love the idea of Sherlock plotting against himself.

Summary
John and Sherlock are professional tennis players and it’s Wimbledon. One is a broken almost was at the end of his career, the other an arrogant rising star tipped for greatness. It should have been a straightforward tournament. It really should have been. How were they to know that a chance encounter would change everything?

This was so intense!!! I loved every second! The games were so engrossing and I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Their relationship was fiery and sweet all at once. I’m in love
Reread 10.4.2024 - A changed experience in a post-challengers world. Genuinely incredible, a bit subversive. A gripping sports drama. I love being so on the edge of my seat for a sports tournament that a) I vaguely remembered the outcome of and b) is roughly three layers of not real.
