    Summary

    И тут он поводит носом и начинает думать, что сошел с ума, потому что пахнет как всегда рядом с Джулио, преимущественно сигаретным дымом и немного гелем для душа 3-в-1 морская свежесть, но он был уверен, что на него буквально пахнуло чем-то густым, теплым, сладковато-пряным, от чего во рту мгновенно собралась слюна и засосало под ложечкой. (или: Альдо приезжает в Милан аккурат под течку Джулио. Джулио уверен, что беспокоиться не о чем)

    Summary

    Tedesco decides to stay post-conclave to loudly complain about every decision Pope Innocent XIV makes. Aldo isn't exactly thrilled. Could this actually be a learning experience for Tedesco? Can Aldo and Tedesco exist in each other's presence without fighting, for once? Certainly, as long as Vincent has any say in it.

    Summary

    “May I ask you a personal question? You do not have to answer, of course.”

    Lawrence's eyebrows rose. Given some of the subjects they’d already discussed, he scarcely dared wonder what the Holy Father might consider overly personal. “My dear Vincent, of course. Whatever you wish to ask me, please go ahead.”

    Benítez smiled. “I was simply wondering. Are you and Cardinal Bellini... intimate friends?”

    “Of—of course not!” Lawrence stuttered, knowing his face and chest had to be breaking out in splotches of bright red color, and hating it. “What an absurd thing to say! I—I haven't... I would not—”

    Benítez just raised his own eyebrows, seemingly unmoved by Lawrence’s outburst. “Why not?”

    Summary

    He wonders if Thomas is sharing Innocentius’s bed already, if he thinks it far too large for one man, a man revered for his isolation. The things Aldo has thought of doing on that bed, dreams with no real heat or desire, just a sense of being called to do something. Of filling a need. Making daddy proud.

    What a sad, foolish man he is.

    (Aldo Bellini fell asleep a scholar, and woke up a sacrificial lamb).

    Summary

    Innocent is looking out of the window as though he can see something more there than the blackness of a howling winter night. “I find myself wishing for his guidance.”

    “If it is of any comfort,” Aldo tries, “He trusted Thomas to steer the Church through the Conclave. He was sure of his integrity like he was of no one else’s here. And Thomas has complete faith in you. You can be sure of his counsel.”

    “I know I can. He’s been a blessing.” At the mention of Thomas, Innocent had brightened, but there is something searching in his expression when he looks back at Aldo, like he hadn’t quite gotten the answer he wanted.

    Or: Aldo and Vincent discover that they have some things in common.

      OFC书店店员 POV
      “Have you seen him?” he asks, a desperate thread running through his voice.

      She isn’t entirely sure what had happened between Thomas and Aldo, but Thomas is the one still wearing his dog collar.

      She shrugs.

      “I’m not sure he’d want you to know where he is.” she says.

      Thomas’s shoulders sag.

      “But he’s- he’s safe? I’ve been so worried.” he asks, sounding, utterly genuine.

      She takes pity on him, dog-earing her page and setting her book aside.

      “Yes. He came in here three days ago to tell me not to hold a book for him because he was going back to America.” Caz says.

      Thomas’s eyes have taken on a look comparable to a hungry dog’s when it sees a string of sausages.

      “Did he say where he was staying?” he asks.

      Caz pauses, uncertain, remembering Aldo’s tears, the way he had said his sexuality had ‘caused trouble’ for him.

      Thomas shakes his head, as if reading her thoughts.

      “I’m not- I’m not going to try and talk him out of anything, I swear. I just- I need to see him.”

      Caz looks at Thomas, noting the way he’s almost trembling with anticipation, his eyes shining.

      “He’s at the Youth Hostel just off Great Portland Street.” she says.

    Summary

    Thomas felt like he should feel some flicker of shame: lying naked on the wide bed with two men—let alone these men—sandwiched tightly between their chests. But all he could feel inside himself was joy.

    Or, Vincent and Aldo unionize to get Thomas to experience some pleasure for once in his life.

    Summary

    Aldo's voice came from the kitchen.

    Thomas analyzed the tone before looking up from his book. He didn't sound upset, which was a plus, but there was also no trace of joy or anything resembling it, which meant he wasn't exempt from some problem.

    Summary

    Interpersonal matters have never been his strong suit; there’s a brashness to himself that he can’t quite shake. He attributes it to the dog-eat-dog world of growing up the youngest of eleven. He’s struggled to get past the acquaintance stage with any of the men in his cohort and it should worry him, but in all truth, he likes his solitude. Having time and space of his own is still a novelty even four years post leaving his childhood home. The majority of his free time is spent reading and listening to the silence around him.

    Summary

    Goffredo Tedesco doesn't do graduate students, Americans, or flings with tourists. Aldo Bellini swore he wouldn't fall in love over a semester abroad. After a night out in Rome, suddenly everything is different.

    Maybe one summer of shared cigarettes would be enough. Maybe it would have to be.

    Summary

    Vincent is a primary school teacher who is perhaps too attached to his students.

    Thomas is a single father who recently moved to Bologna, in Emilia Romagna. He and his son Ray are very close, but his job prevents him from being as present as he would like.

    Or Vincent being a mess for TOO MANY chapters and Thomas being a oblivious idiot.

    Summary

    When Thomas Lawrence came by the papal apartments that evening, he came, unsurprisingly, with a bundle of papers under his arm.

    Vincent tried on and discarded four separate teasing comments about it, but didn’t get to decide on one before Thomas silently handed them over, and he realized they were newspapers, opened and refolded over the weekly comics, his favorite. Three of them, one for each week he’d been away.

    Ah, he thought, with the feeling of a sudden hard deceleration in his chest, the press it put on his heart. Ah. All right then.

    Summary

    To save money (and sanity), Aldo and Goffredo reluctantly agree to share a flat in Rome. They draft a solemn “Flatmate Agreement”: no smoking, no flirting, no stealing food… and a handful of practical add-ons. Within weeks, all the rules are broken. Within months, the flat no longer feels like Aldo’s or Goffredo’s—it feels like home. Of stolen sweaters and midnight pasta, of balcony vapes and kitchen kisses. Where the rules blurred and love began.
