    Summary

    Four days ago, in the light of an ice bear fridge, Harry had held a crumpled bullet in his hands, stained with purge fluid, and told you to keep it, lieutenant; as a gift. You’d turned it down at the time. You hadn’t particularly wanted to carry around a used bullet, no matter how important to the case it might be. Do you regret it? Probably not. But you are still owed something from this man, and, if there’s one thing you’ve gotten good at over the years, it’s patiently waiting until you can take what you deserve.

    Summary

    "Ah-ah. Dogs don't talk, remember?" and you shake your head frantically, no, of course not. He reaches down and grips the base of your tail.

    "That's a good boy. Now, if you can't control yourself... I suppose I can change my plans."

    Summary

    “The lord be with you,” the priest says.

    “And also with you,” the congregation, Napoleon included, murmurs back. Illya’s neck prickles, the fine hairs under his collar standing up. He’s not disturbed by the unity, he’s inexplicably moved by it. The way one is moved by a chorus in perfect harmony, a ballet company’s sharp collective choreography, a squadron of soldiers’ neat march. There is something mind-numbingly pleasing about observing a many-headed crowd moving and speaking as one unit. Perhaps that is why this is called a mass.

    --

    Or, Illya digs into Napoleon's Catholicism, in an effort to prod him where he's vulnerable. In God, he finds his own vulnerability, instead.

    Summary

    You've been thinking about this since the beginning, or near enough--since Julian healed your vampire eel bite, then coyly admitted to being a masochist and let you press on the wound in that hidden, overgrown garden. That night has featured in your dreams ever since. But it takes a little bit of liquid courage to get you to bring it up... which is why you lean over to Julian, perched on a barstool next to you at the Rowdy Raven, and whisper:

    "We should use your curse in bed, don't you think?"

    Julian chokes on his beer.
