    Summary

    Oliver sends a mistaken text.

    Elio is Elio. Teaching Assistant Oliver THINKS he knows himself. Precocious Student Elio plays by his own rules.

    Often at first Oliver (much more so than Elio) is best read in the blanks, in the things he doesn’t say, in the texts he doesn’t reply to, in the places he ends conversations or changes the topic.

    In time that changes. Slowly.

    Summary

    Three Four Five(!) short Elio/Oliver stories set over the course of that summer: before, during, and after. Canon compliant...until it goes a bit quite AU at the end. :-)

    About Elio and Oliver, of course, and about poetry, and Elio's boldness, and the woes of an academic, and those hot afternoons by the pool that seemed to promise never to end. And then about Oliver back in New York, knowing his life has been upended and trying to figure out what to do about it. And then...a return to Italy! (And now, with a New York coda.)

    Summary

    What changed his mind he has no idea, and who kisses who he can’t quite tell, but Elio’s heart soars as he raises up on tiptoes, and it’s all he can do to remember to breathe as they cling to each other in the light of the setting sun.

    Summary

    'Every tale is a tragedy when viewed in a certain light, but these are our memories, Oliver, laid out in black and white, and should I be destined to share Maman’s fate, I’m wont to ensure that someone, someday, will remember us.'

    Five years after his impromptu visit to Dartmouth University, Elio sends Oliver the journal he kept when he was the most hard-done-by teenager on earth. Will the yellowed pages shed a new light on the summer of ‘83? And in the face of such revelations, is it too late to make amends with the man who changed his life?

    Summary

    Elio and Oliver take a road trip to San Francisco.

    Sequel to: keep me by your side. You don't necessarily need to read the first series but it probably would help!
