Summary
Admiral Sarpedon of the Ceaseless Fleet knows perfectly well that he’s far too old to be carrying on like this.
Were he ever in any danger of forgetting, his body would unhappily remind him at the first opportunity: God keeps such irregular hours these days, and Sarpedon gave up on late nights fifteen years ago, and if he yawns his stiff, sore way through one more morning meeting the Admiral of the Dead Sea is probably going to wait until after the Emperor inevitably slumps to sleep in his chair at the end of the table and then jump on the opportunity to say the quiet part out loud and pointedly ask Sarpedon what he got up to last night, because that’s just the sort of thing she would do. And it’s not as if Sarpedon doesn’t already know exactly what it is that all the various young people under his command are snickering about whenever they think his back is turned, but the prospect of having the subject so publicly raised is nonetheless unbearable.
And yet.
(Sarpedon has gay sex with God. It could’ve gone better.)
