   Summary

   After an unpleasant meeting at the local gym, Patroclus shows up at the physiotherapy practice of Dr. Pells.

   Getting to know someone else is hard. Achilles must discover the beauty of the process, Patroclus must learn to open up.
   Both must learn to accept the love they deserve.

   [and I] can yet stare at the dark
   line and wait: for some
   of my love getting
   to its destination
   eventually.

   or
   Achilles is a physiotherapist with a passion for books and desserts.
   Patroclus is a pro MMA fighter with a bad shoulder and a wood art thing.
