Summary
They do as he bids, lining up in front of the prince as he takes each of their hands and presses a kiss on the back of it, chanting something under his breath. Ornstein has seen the prince do this many times before and it has never caused him any qualms, so what is this feeling rising within him now? He can’t name it, but it gnaws at him and distracts him from imagining his prince’s lips on his skin.
-Oh.
Drunken (not-)Christmas shenanigans.

Summary
You know the story: man meets woman, woman meets man, and together they save the galaxy from wanton destruction. And somewhere in between, there is room for love.
But in the chaos of war and in its messy aftermath, what does it take to make a “happily ever after”?
Falling Slowly is a triptych of vignettes set pre and post war. Inspired by Richard Linklater's Before trilogy of films, the story unfolds through intimate conversations, depicting the small, but meaningful moments that build intimacy across the years.
