    Summary

    Had it been just that simple touch, he might still be sane. He could easily believe it accidental. Not so the sotto voce “apologies, sir” from lips close enough for Jopson’s breath to tickle the edge of his whiskers.

    Summary

    Had he been that obvious? Up till now, Edward thought he’d done a fine job concealing his longing for Thomas Jopson. But Sergeant Tozer had just proven him wrong; it had, without his consent, become something more than he could possibly conceal.

    And what, exactly, was Edward to do with the offer in the sergeant’s carefully worded reply?

    “There’s some as wouldn’t mind more than lookin’, sir.”

    With a bruise, a button, and a cigarette or three, once (nearly) in the orlop, once or twice (memorably) in the first lieutenant’s cabin, and (most importantly) without the knowledge of stewards named Thomas — Edward Little and Solomon Tozer come to an arrangement.

    Summary

    “It doesn’t matter anyway,” says Tommy quickly — anything to make Jopson stop looking at him like that. “Because even if he would let me, I wouldn’t know what to do.”

    “You haven’t—?”

    Tommy shrugs and takes a bite of his forgotten supper so he doesn’t have to think about his burning cheeks. “Few quick fumbles. Never time for much else.”

    Jopson is still looking at him, but thankfully, the pitying expression is finally gone, replaced by something rather thoughtful.

    “Would you like me to show you how?”

    As the ocean around them slowly freezes over, Tom Jopson and Tommy Armitage find a way to keep themselves warm. If Tommy sometimes suspects that Jopson is using their arrangement to help him forget about someone else, it's not as if he has any room to complain - not when he's doing the same thing.
