    Summary

    This is a language no one else in the world is fluent in: the glint in Nicky’s eye, the unbearable gentleness with which he pushes Yusuf flat against the bed.

    Summary

    The making and the breaking of bread, throughout the centuries.

    The first time Nicky bakes bread for them to share — thick, rounded puffs of aish baladi, prepared with the utmost concentration and care — the sun has begun to set in Cairo, staining the sky the same vivid colour as the tangerines that grow ripe and heavy on the trees outside their door.

    Summary

    Joe’s senses are nowhere near as developed as Andy’s, but it’s been decades, more maybe, since he got such a pure, unadulterated taste of Nicolo, no products, no laundry detergent, nothing but his skin, his sweat, his breath. It’s exactly how Nicky smelled when they first kissed, hard and desperate and confused, and the sense-memory is so strong that Joe loses his mind a little, going hard so fast it’s painful, pressing his whole front against Nicky.

    Summary

    “He has a crush on him,” Joe says around a mouthful of carrots and points his fork at him for emphasis. To someone who once has had Joe’s scimitar rammed through his chest, it’s not exactly a terrifying gesture, but it still feels a tad more aggressive than Nicky thinks the situation warrants.
     

    (In which archaeologists make a discovery, Joe is upset, and Nicky trolls historians.)
