    Summary

    Verso sits at the piano and his hands start playing. They summon a melody veiled in dust, rising out of Paris, out of a memory his mother had sealed beneath a thin glaze of shame. He thinks he knows what it means now.

    Condemned to a hollow existence, Verso retreats into memories that were never his to own: into the hazy intimacy between Verso Dessendre and a brilliant Parisian engineer. And if the past is already lost beyond recall, what harm is there in letting its ache comfort him one last time?

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Best Verstave fic I've read. The only version of them I've been able to think about since I read it. Absolutely incredible, would highly recommend.
