    Summary

    “Not to be rude, but you have a lot to learn about human society.”

    "Teach me then,” Sunday says. Does he realize the implications in how he says that, while half-naked in his office? Probably not.

    “I can start off by saying that we don’t usually start stripping in the middle of business meetings.”

    “Usually,” Sunday says, one finger raised, like he’s found a gotcha moment.

    Working with angels can drive a man insane, if only because it's often likened to bashing your head into a brick wall, repeatedly, while the angel looks on in chaste delight on watching the human perform. Aventurine, however, can roll with the punches; his angel is weird, and often disconcerting, but he sure is nice to look at.

    Summary

    “Have you ever wanted to know what it’s like to have sex with a Halovian?”

    Silence, aside from the background noise. “I won’t say that I haven’t,” Aventurine says more soberly. “Are you offering to show me? Or are you just conducting a survey?

    So easy. Of course Aventurine wants to have sex with him. Sunday will rub it in his face once Aventurine has arrived. “Go back to your room and think of me. I’ll bring you here.”

    Sunday accidentally finds his way into an area of the Dreamscape that vies for his self-control. He can only think of one person who might be able to help him out.

    Summary

    He has to keep his eyes shut the entire time, lest Sunday sees the pure desire that alights within them.

    Half a second later, Sunday pulls away. The softness of his lips—softer than Ratio’s, whose are always sharp with either bites or insults—will linger for the rest of the night, even after Sunday walks away with a laugh.

    Lungs burning, Aventurine exhales, and rubs his mouth roughly. “What the fuck?” he mumbles. At least his high keeps him from freaking the absolute fuck out. “Did you see that?”

    Ratio hums. “I did.”

    “Would you be my witness if I went to HR?”

    Aventurine has a weird boss.

    Summary

    And just like that, Bucky Barnes’s political career is over.

    Congress convenes, he resigns, and then he and the Thunderbolts – or the "New Avengers," they're calling themselves now – decide to grab some pizza. They saved the world from an ever-growing Void of fear and bad memories. They've earned a quiet day in together.

    Then Sam Wilson shows up.

    And Bucky just breaks.
