Summary
Their first mission together goes something like this:
Farrier’s on his third year year in the RAF, has already seen enough combat that he sometimes hears gunfire in his sleep. Collins is fresh out of flight school, red-cheeked and bright-eyed and still untouched by the evils of the world. Farrier takes one look at him and thinks, his plane’ll go down in minutes.
But Collins surprises him.

Peter’s always had a habit of sticking his hands where they don’t belong.

Summary
He wonders if he’d imagined the boat, that day. If Collins had even made it out at all. If he’d gotten back to Edinburgh and saw it in the papers, RAF aids successful evacuation at Dunkirk, and just known, then, that for Farrier, the war was over.
He wonders if Collins heard about the dissolution of the stalags and thought, maybe.

Summary
“You’re lucky your sister doesn’t know who you are, because if she did? She’d hate you.”
The last few ruins of them crumble to the ground with the words. They are the Roman Empire: built brick by brick, carved across miles of land and decades of blood and battle, then destroyed in a fraction of that, any remaining evidence of their existence buried under the settling dust.
“Say goodbye, Simon,” Raphael says.
And he watches Rome burn.

Simon. Raphael’s thoughts are almost delirious, soaked in desperation. We’ll be-
“Bonded?” Simon offers him a wry smile. “I think it’s a bit too late to be worrying about that.”

Summary
Gabe’s cheeks are rosy from the cold, the tip of his nose red like Rudolph’s. Snow has set in his dark curls. Matt bites back a teasing remark about that, instead he brushes his thumb over Gabe’s uncharacteristically pink cheeks, reveling in how the flush deepens at his touch.
His breathing is laboured, like they just got off the ice after a particularly taxing game. Matt's close enough to see snowflakes have settled in his eyelashes, too.
I should kiss him, Matt thinks. He’s no stranger to that thought. In fact it’s been all he can think of lately. Ugh, he's so in love, it’s disgusting.
When they come to a stop at the end of the ride, he offers Gabe his hand to help him down from the carriage. It's more of a joke than anything, Matt is fully expecting Gabe to brush him off. But Gabe’s now-gloved hand slips into his, and Matt, encouraged to tempt fate, lets his other hand rest on the small of Gabe’s back to steady him.
Still no reaction. Gabe Perreault might have been replaced with an agreeable Hallmark-movie clone.

Matt's got insomnia. Gabe's got... problems. A lot of them, from the looks of it.

Summary
“I was just thinking. Can we–” Gabe bites his lip. “Can we do it face to face today?”
And Matt's mouth is faster than his brain again.
“What, you wanna pretend this is our wedding night?”
It’s an unnecessary cruel thing to say, even for Matt's standards. Gabe turns his face away, blinking frantically like he’s trying to stop tears from falling. “You’re an asshole,” he mumbles.
Matt knows. He knows this is about Will Smith. Everything begins and ends with this man for Gabe, from the first time he went on his knees for Matt when Will had ghosted him for 3 months.
But oh…there’s something else there. Something more fragile, something Gabe won’t be able to fuck out of his system.
Matt sighs and makes a grab for the cordless phone on the nightstand.
“What are you doing?” Gabe asks, incredulously.
“Calling room service. It’s not acceptable that the wedding suite has no champagne.”

Or: Gabe has some complicated feelings about Will and Mack getting married. Matt is too whipped for his own good.
