Summary
He moved through life in gradients of silence. Grocery stores made his head ache with light, voices, unpredictable chatter. Department meetings left him sweating under his shirt though the air conditioning blasted. When he spoke, people blinked—too honest, too fast, too much. His colleagues described him as brilliant but strange. Yuanzhou didn’t mind. He had his whiteboard markers, his research, and a small corner of the university where everything obeyed physical law. Physics was the only world where he didn’t have to guess what people meant.

Summary
The Guy grunted. He screwed up his face against Sydney’s summer sun streaming in through the window, pressed his palms to his eyes, and then shook out his hair. His eyes blinked open, slow mo, lashes batting.
“Oh hey, so you’re Zuko?” He yawned, then grinned. He had a fucking accent. Zuko was gonna bite something apart. “I’m Sokka. I’ll be the top to your lion bottom.”
Sifu Piandao has called in an old student of his to help pull this year’s lion dance together, after Zuko’s usual partner Aang took off to “find himself” in Nepal. Zuko’s worked with Piandao for years, he’s a professional. No matter how annoying the new guy is, he’s going to keep it together for the sake of the festivities, and not at all get distracted by his partner’s… assets.

Summary
Zhuo Yichen is just shy of his fifteenth birthday when he first meets Zhao Yuanzhou and Li Lun. He feels every second of the six years of age between them as he stutters out his name. He catches sight of Li Lun’s slight smirk at the hiccup and looks down, shaking his hair over his reddening ears. A hand is proffered to him and he takes it. He thinks Zhao Yuanzhou notices the slight tremor in his fingertips because his eyes crinkle knowingly as they exchange introductions.
Zhao Yuanzhou’s smile is warm and gentle in the way Li Lun’s isn’t.Zhuo Yichen is young and wants someone he cannot have. Li Lun is older and provides a good enough distraction.
