Summary
Isabelle leans across the table and places a hand on his lightly. "All I mean to say, Cid, is you're in a rut, and I know you too well to think you're happy there," she says, a hint of apology in her tone. "If you meet my new friend and you're not interested, fine, but at least meet him."
Cid turns his hand over under hers, simultaneously comforted and annoyed by how well she knows him. "I make no promises," he grumbles. "Who is he, then?"
Cid Telamon, at one time a big name in the Valisthean kink scene, has kept to the sidelines since going through a bad breakup. Clive Rosfield, a new face in the scene, is a very good reason to get back in the game—and a temptation to reconsider things Cid thought he was done with.

The ball held at the very height of the Bloom is a time-honored tradition, and as Mistrex of Ceremonies Rue has planned more of them than they can easily recall, and faithfully attended each one.
In all that time, they have never danced.

Summary
He shouldn't encourage Camrith's attention. There are, in fact, several reasons he shouldn't encourage it. But it would take a stronger man than him to have those bright eyes fixed on him and not want to tell Cam anything he wants to know as long as he just keeps looking at Dorian like that.

Summary
Camrith turns his head to kiss Dorian’s wrist, just under the hem of his glove. “So I take it you’d like to do this more often?”
“Watch you twist an entire empire around your little finger? Yes, please.” Dorian leans in to kiss him again, then pulls back just enough to speak, their lips still brushing. “But seeing as you’re the hero of the hour, I believe a better question is what you want.”

Summary
Liu Kang shrugs. "We have all been through a lot. And you…" he pauses for a moment, studying her. "You sought us out. Not for personal gain or the thrill of battle, but because you care about the history of Mortal Kombat and what it means. I cannot help but believe that means you are meant to stand alongside us at the tournament."
Hearing that from him brings back the feeling Sonya had when they first arrived at the temple--not just excitement at finally being here, or validation at knowing everything she'd learned and found and pieced together about the tournament was true, but a sense that she could be a part of this, claim a space among champions. The feeling that keeps coming back despite the immutable, impersonal fact that as long as she doesn't have a mark she's stuck on the sidelines, a supporting player at best.

Summary
They both look over at him, and Kung Lao arches an eyebrow. "We're not the ones in need of training here," he says, and adds pointedly, "We've both unlocked our arcana."
Cole shrugs, spreading his hands. "So show us all what you can do."
"Yeah." Sonya leans forward, elbows on her knees, and sends Cole a quick, conspiratorial little grin. "Give us something to aspire to."
Kung Lao looks back at Liu Kang, and there's a brief, entirely wordless exchange of quirked eyebrows and tilted heads, after which they both walk out onto the sand.

Summary
“Well, this is a surprise,” Kung Lao says when he walks into his room to find Liu Kang kneeling by the foot of the bed, shirtless and barefoot, his arms clasped behind him and his gaze lowered.
It’s not—not when Liu Kang has been sharing his bed for close to a year, and not when they’d talked through this exact scenario earlier. But feigning surprise is part of the game, as is the way Liu Kang darts a glance up through his eyelashes and then bows his head.

Summary
Kung Lao could kiss him, so easily. They sit close together, Liu Kang still holding Kung Lao's injured hand, the warmth in his eyes and the curve of his lips inviting. It would be so easy for Kung Lao to lean in, to press his mouth to Liu Kang's.
Except, of course, that it's not easy at all.

Summary
“You must go quickly and quietly,” Raiden says. “Think of it as slipping through a back door.”
“A back door into where?” Liu Kang asks.
“A place you are not meant to be,” Raiden tells him. “If you are discovered, your soul will be forfeit. Find Kung Lao and return at once, or both of you will be lost.”
Liu Kang nods, eyes fixed on the shrouded form in front of him. “I understand, master. How do I find him?”
In which Earthrealm cannot afford to lose even one champion, and Liu Kang would face any danger to save Kung Lao.

Summary
Nicolo's heart beats against his ribs like a trapped bird as he presses his mouth to Yusuf's. He's never kissed anyone before, and at first he's afraid that he'll do something wrong, that his inexperience will be painfully obvious. Then Yusuf brings one hand up to cup Nicolo's face, leaning in to kiss him back, and Nicolo forgets to be afraid of anything.

Summary
It’s one of those things they revisit from time to time. It takes a high level of comfort and safety, but sometimes, when the conditions are right, Joe will flash Nicky that look and Nicky will answer with a smirk and a tilt of his head, and later on the ropes will come out.

Summary
There are a lot of unfortunate things about this job, but high on Joe’s personal list is how Nicky pretending to be a thoroughly bad person is somehow stupidly, ridiculously, brain-meltingly sexy.

Summary
Nico hesitates, looking down at him. One of his arms is draped across Yusuf’s chest, and he tightens his hold before answering. “There is nothing I want more than to be with you.”
There’s an implied but there; there’s also nothing in this world Yusuf is more sure of than Nicolo’s devotion. “I know,” he replies gently. “What are you thinking?”
Nicolo gives him another little squeeze, then looks up at Andromache, who’s watching them with mild curiosity. “Sometimes I wonder what it’s like to be with a woman. If I would enjoy it.”
The lift of Andromache’s eyebrows says she wasn’t expecting that. “I take it that means you never have?”

Summary
Joseph and Nicolo linger near the door a moment longer, Joseph leaning in to steal a kiss, quick and sweet and a promise of more when they can snatch some privacy. Then he draws back, taking Nico’s hand.
“Come on,” he says, intertwining their fingers. “Come sit down and have something to eat.”
Or: Five times the Old Guard fed each other.

Summary
Nicolo is crimson by this point, but still smiling as he shakes his head. “You, good sir, are a shameless flatterer.”
“I prefer the term ‘romantic’,” Yusuf says. “And the only shame would be if you were to think my words are not sincere.”
