    Summary

    Twenty years after Peter Nureyev stuck a knife in the back of the thief who raised him in order to save a city full of people, he gets a call from an unknown number. He recognizes the voice on the line almost immediately: it’s Mag, the very man he murdered two decades ago. He’s alive, and he wants to see Nureyev again.

    But what are Mag’s intentions? How did he survive Nureyev's killing strike? And what will Juno think, when he gets back from his week-long undercover mission to find the man who’d deceived and manipulated his boyfriend living happily aboard the Carte Blanche?

    Summary

    “My grandmother taught me about selkies,” said the tattooed man. “Said it’s good luck for them to grace your ship. To treat ‘em right, and they’ll guide you safe.”

    Summary

    Jon's been going about his life and his schooling the same way he always has — overworking himself to exhaustion and attempting to ignore the phantom pains he experiences (though there's one ache that always takes him out for the day, a blinding pain in his chest just above his heart that doctors have assured him is no cause for alarm).

    One late night, while doing work for his literature course, something strange happens. He brushes it off, but when the same thing keeps happening, maybe Jon has to admit there's something going on.

    or

    Jon and Martin will find each other, no matter where they go.

    Summary

    Martin gnaws his lower lip. “Do you think he’ll - I mean, do you think it’ll be…”

    Melanie's smile becomes a little less of a grimace. She claps his shoulder. “Martin. It’ll be fine. It’s only temporary. He’s not moving in.”

    Martin chuckles. “Yes. Of course.”
