    Summary

    Asa found the book when he was retiring. Bleak House, Dickens, a lovely old edition, tucked into a corner next to Asa’s desk. How curious, it must have been here even before Derek sold the shop to him fifteen years ago. He picked it up, admiring the lovely cloth-bound cover and faded gilt lettering. Why wasn’t this out with the stock – had he taken it in to price and forgotten about it?

    Asa couldn’t look up from the pages. All blank, so very curious, because the paper seemed as genuinely old as the book. Maybe much older, somehow, than it ought to be. Except, someone had written on the first page.

    Summary

    "Once I could see the good in me, the black and the white distinctively coloring; holding the world inside. Now all the world is grey to me, nobody can see-- you gotta believe it" - Brian May, 'The Night Comes Down'

     

    Things are tough sometimes. But when you care about someone, you do what you can when they're hurting. You do what you can all the time, but especially when they're hurting. And when you've got a giant friend you've known long enough to be able to tell when he needs you to be close, well. You're going to bloody be there.

    (Or, Roger can tell when Brian is struggling, and he is not going to let his friend face life alone.)

    Summary

    The only reason Jim agreed to come to this damn party was because he wanted to (in Deacy's words) "man up" and finally ask Freddie out. It's easier said than done.
    In which Jim is Gomez Addams, and Freddie is a star in more ways than one.

    OR: Jim's pining. Freddie's pining. Jim's trying to work up the nerve to do something about it, and a costume party seems like a good place to do it.
