    Summary

    Henry: What about your injury? You said you got hit?

    Hans: Godwin pulled the arrow out straightaway. It didn’t go in too deep, thankfully. I was wearing armor. And in the fray I didn’t even think of it. It’s only starting to hurt now, in fact.

    Henry: Do you want me to take a look at it later?

    Hans: Why not? That’s kind of you.

    Later, in the baths, Henry takes care of his lord.

    Summary

    In the stillness after Suchdol, Henry is paralyzed by his past, a prisoner to thoughts that convince him he’ll never be more than a boy who neglects the person closest to him — the same coward who watched his village burn and his parents die and their killer apologize to him and to God.

    ***

    Henry is plagued by nightmares, and he grapples with them while trying to figure out how to reconnect with Hans after their evening at Suchdol.

    Summary

    After everything, Henry and Hans find some space for themselves away from everyone. There's a lot of work to do if they want it to be habitable by winter, which is lucky, because Henry needs the distraction.

    Distraction from the dreams, which are terrible.

    And the thoughts, which are worse.

    Summary

    Gavin feels it, the quiet, aching need in the pressure of Connor’s body against his. Not just for warmth or contact, but for something deeper. Safety. Connection. Something real.

    The weight of it slams into Gavin, sudden and overwhelming, stealing the air from his lungs.

    Summary

    What has Viktor done to deserve this? At what point did Jayce come to value him so highly? Somehow, this bond of theirs grew so gradually, so subtly, escaping Viktor’s notice as it entwined itself into every facet of their lives, strangling all else with its roots until only its verdant bloom remained.

    “Let me go, Jayce.”

    The grip on him tightens. “I won’t.”

    No. He’s made that quite clear. Viktor lacks the strength to shake him off; if he tried, Jayce would surely release him, but to rob Jayce of his sole source of comfort would not be right, nor good, and so Viktor waits. A minute passes, then two, then four.

    The rune swallows them up, and abandons them in an unfamiliar land. Is this not what they wanted? With naught but the clothes on their backs, they are left to wander. To wonder.
