Summary
Galga knew he was far from the first apprentice to sit up late at night having guilty, conflicted fantasies about his master, and at least in this case the man was his own age. The fact Atwert was currently his teacher could hardly make the situation that much more fraught than his own destroyed history already had.
—
Galga caught on long ago that the absurdly charming man now teaching him his signs and sigils was once his lover. Alone in his small apprentice annex, fantasies about the future and speculation about the past merge.

Summary
“I would, y’know,” Zooble said, very close to casual but not quite. “If we could.”

On a grocery run, Blackheart finds that one of the awful skin rags on the magazine rack has a photoshoot with Sir Goldenloin as its cover story. He absconds with the magazine and curls up in his lair, searching through its pages for answers— why Ambrosius would agree to a pin-up shoot, what he’s been up to over the past few years when they’re not crossing swords, and if there’s anything left behind those eyes of the man he remembers loving.

Summary
"It's okay if you're not up for it," Ryan says. "No rush."
Min jumps. "No! I am! Definitely. I just. I'm not sure where to start when we're not starting with, I don't know, the emotional foreplay of soul-bearing confessions or lots of really embarrassing tears." He looks sheepish. "It's been kind of a weird few days."
"Okay, yeah, I can see why that's a problem." Ryan smiles, and hopes it puts Min at ease. "That's a habit we could break, starting now."
