    Summary

    Sometimes Keke looks at his child and sees only a girl: a girl with big bows who loves exploring Mama's makeup, and who has a big pout whenever she doesn't get her way.

    Sometimes though, Keke is unable to see his child as anything but a little boy.

    Keke hopes it's not a bad thing.

    Or, Nico is trans. It changes everything, yet also nothing at all. His life, through Keke's eyes.

    Summary

    It is stupid of Nico to even give Lewis the chance to notice.
    The hot water kettle is just a bit too heavy at breakfast one morning and Nico loses his grip. Lewis is next to him at the buffet table of the hotel and catches it out of reflex; Nico knows better than to think it’s kindness. He stares at where Nico’s fingers are still refusing to cooperate.
    "What happened to your hand?"
    "Nerves" - Nico answers with a shrug, glad for the double meaning in the English phrasing.
    It's up to Lewis how he wants to interpret it; Nico didn't lie.

    Summary

    “What is wrong with you?” Seb accuses. “What are you looking at?”

    Lewis flips the invitation around, holding it up to the screen so Seb can see it through FaceTime.

    “Ah,” Seb says. “Yes, mine arrived yesterday. They’re eager, aren’t they?”

    Lewis purses his lips, then pulls the invite away so he can read over it again.

    Invite you to celebrate their wedding

    17.08.24

     

    “Do you think about getting married?” Seb asks.

    Lewis can’t help his scoff. “Seb.”

    “What?” Seb asks innocently. “You are 38 now, surely it is time to settle down.”

    “And get some bees?” Lewis asks wryly, flipping the invitation over so it’s face down.

    Seb shrugs. “There are worse things.”

    Lewis struggles to swallow down the lump that’s suddenly formed in his throat. His shoulder aches, a phantom pain that his doctor says is more psychosomatic than ongoing complications.

    “Yeah,” he agrees quietly. “I guess there are.”

    Summary

    Tom liked to say that it took one dish of homemade pelmeni to unravel and end the 235 years of implicit and explicit prohibitions against homosexuality in the US military.

    Pete, on the other hand, thought he was exaggerating. DADT did not end because of them. (Or did it?)
