    Summary

    “I bleed in excess, Ferdinand,” Hubert says—a murmur, vulnerable, momentary—in a different voice, with a different heart. When he turns back his head, he holds Ferdinand’s gaze like a hand holds a lance. “You simply do not see it.”

    Ferdinand looks in wide-eyed shock at the man across from him, whose dark hair curtains one side of his face even now, rendering all expressions incomplete. He wishes, for a stark, clear moment, to reach across the distance between them and brush aside that hair, tenderly, a gesture lost to history, and find what it keeps from him.

    A foal, a correspondence, and a realization, after the war.

    Summary

    "Hubert hasn’t looked up from his paperwork since. As he finally finishes, though, he glances up to find Ferdinand draped across the armrest. His hair is past his shoulders now, and it’s shockingly bright against the deep plum of the fabric. Hubert glances beside the unconscious Prime Minister to see several stacks of papers, many with Ferdinand’s signature already written in looping script.

    Ever since their school days, Ferdinand’s signature has been ostentatious. Dramatic and round, barely fitting in the spaces provided. Hubert remembers the annoyance with which he forged it once, when he was eighteen. He can’t recall what he needed signed, or why he couldn’t simply ask Ferdinand to sign it himself."

    Alternatively: There are 1825 days between the Professor's disappearance and her return. Five years of war in which Hubert finds more light than he ever imagined.
