    Summary

    In the wake of Phoenix Gate, Clive fights to keep his brother's throne. For Joshua, it's a trial of loss he cannot keep from repeating. But he will find a way.

    “I know,” Joshua repeats, as Clive’s fingers settle deeper in his hair, carding out the apology he can’t make. “I know you have to go. If we lose Rosalith, we lose—” Rosaria, he means to say, but Clive interrupts him.

    “—I lose you. There isn’t a place I could send you on Storm safer than this city.” He smiles. “Allow me to do my duty, lord marquess.” The title sounds funny on his lips.

    Joshua rises and sorts himself. “I can order you to stay.” He won’t, and he wouldn’t.

    Clive’s smile tugs to one side. “You can try.”

    Summary

    It was quiet, and when Olruggio’s head raised he saw that ever-present look on Qifrey’s face again.

    The one where he looked hesitant, a little bit displaced, and so startingly unsure of himself.

    “Olly, I’m...” he started, awkwardly trailing off as his hand traced to the top of his cap. “You know I don’t do too well with being... celebrated.”

    He spoke the words as if the mere thought of it made him uncomfortable, his shoulders hunching up as he coiled that ribbon tight around his finger.

    Olruggio reached between them.

    “Of things worth celebrating,” he murmured, catching the ribbon with his finger and gently pulling it loose. “You being born is at the very top of my list.” He leveled Qifrey with a look. “Understand?”

    Qifrey nodded slow as if in a daze, whispering out a hushed, “Yes,” as he watched Olruggio weave the ribbon between his fingers.

    Or

    Qifrey’s birthday comes around again, but this year Olruggio hoped to make it a bit more memorable.

    Whether Qifrey liked it or not.

    Summary

    “Olruggio,” she said, as if it was obvious. “Is he like your boyfriend?”

    “Yes?” Qifrey blinked at Alaira’s foolishness. Olly was his friend, and a boy. Duh. “Of course he’s my boyfriend.”

    -

    A young Qifrey accidentally starts a rumour about himself and Olruggio that quickly gets out of hand.
