    Summary

    "Hey,” Olruggio says. It’s late—long past when they were supposed to be back from their trip beyond the Great Hall—so they have the baths to themselves. Olruggio bathes; Qifrey perches on the edge and scowls at the water. “Are you really missing an eye?”

    Or: Olruggio tries to give Qifrey a piece of what he is missing.

    Summary

    This wasn’t how Jayce had imagined it would happen.

    In his moments of weakness, late at night, with sleep eluding him and desire pooling in his lower abdomen, he had allowed himself to picture something quite different from this. His mind conjured up scenarios in which they both stumbled into bed, clothes tugged off their bodies, as they laughed between hungry kisses. He had imagined Viktor, flushed and happy, reaching for him with the same feverish lust and need that Jayce felt.

    He never imagined him like this.

    Viktor sat on the bed, looking incredibly small. His head was bowed in shame, his hair obscuring his eyes. His graceful hands were resting together on his lap, his fingers clasped in supplication. He was trembling, and Jayce didn’t know if it was from nerves or pain—or a terrible combination of both. Jayce wanted to wrap his arms around him and promise that everything would be okay.

    That he would fix everything.

    That he would save him.

    When stigmata blooms across Viktor’s body, Jayce knows he’ll do anything to save him. Even if it means ripping the holiness out of him with his own bare hands.

    What's Viktor doing in a place like this?! Can Jayce keep his boss’s secret? Since when did Viktor own cat ears?! And most importantly, how is Jayce supposed to act normal at work after this?!

    Summary

    Olruggio wrapped his arms around Qifrey’s waist and pulled him close. He rested his chin on Qifrey’s shoulder, warm and real and solid. Qifrey returned the gesture, his eye sliding shut. He let out a breath. They remained that way for a long while, leaning against each other. This could not ease Qifrey—he’d managed a delicate balance that allowed him to indulge in these small ways while retaining his ever-present fear—but Olruggio’s weight became heavier and heavier as he relaxed into it.

    Qifrey could do these things for Olruggio; he could take care of him, though it would never make up for everything that he had done.
    -
    Qifrey and Olruggio build themselves a home. The days pass in the closest thing to domestic bliss that Qifrey can manage. It cannot last.
