    “Potter,” he said, coming to me, “you need a roommate, yes?”

    “Uh, sure,” I said, uncomprehending. His eyes were very bright.

    “Well,” he grinned, “I’ve found you one.”

    Summary

    ーand in my unfamiliar babbling-and-wanting-to-talk state I can’t stop myself from blurting the thing on the edge of my tongue, the thing I’d never said, even though it was something we both knew well enough without me having to say it out loud to him in the streetー which was, of courseー

    “I love you.”

    Summary

    “Why the fuck is it so busy?” Boris asks some hours later, twinkling lights a messy rainbow swirl around them, late December cold starting to eat a hole through Theo’s less-than-ideal camel’s-hair coat.

    “It’s four days until Christmas, you idiot,” Theo says. “You should have had your weird holiday epiphany like a month ago.”

    Summary

    "I concur with your definition of life, and would like to add my own to it: life is the chase itself, and also the things you chase after. The painting, the painter, and the paint. And the point where different lives touch? That's the canvas. Life is footprints in the sand of the universe—inevitably washed away, but there for a brief, shining moment, long enough to lead someone back home. And there it is again: home."

    or,

    Life after the end of the book, told through letters and text messages.
