    Summary

    Jiang Cheng’s hair is all over his throbbing, freshly-elbowed face and he is being strangled by his own tie. He ignores all that to keep grim hold of Lan Zhan’s collar. “Lan Zhan,” he says, as calmly as possible, i.e. not very. “If you propose to my brother in the middle of my sister’s fucking wedding, I swear to god I will slash your throat with the cake-cutter and Wei Ying will become a widower without ever having been a groom.”

    - - -

    Jiang Yanli is getting married! Possibly, so are some other people.

    Summary

    "You aren't going home yet, are you?" But Lyney couldn't leave even if he wanted to, Wriothesley’s gaze has him caught in a live trap. "How about a little game of poker between you and me? Just the two of us. I can get a room upstairs.”

    It's hard not to think about the implications of it, though. There's a splash of disgusting heat on the back of Lyney's neck. His biggest shame is how badly he wants to say yes. He hesitates, faltering, irony fails him. He should put an end to this now, walk out of the bar and meet Lynette halfway to Hotel Bouffes d’ete. That's what he should've done all along, before they had crossed so many lines.

    What a fickle thing the human mind is, how hatred is so close to passion, how tension is so close to sex. Lyney knows better.

    "And what exactly do I win?" He asks anyway.

    During a game of strip poker, Wriothesley and Lyney strip themselves of more than just their clothes.

    Summary

    "I didn't go back into the Hollow then," Hugo said. "But if you hadn't showed up--"

    "You would have gone back?" Young Lycaon's face melted into a puddle of conflicting emotions, anger and frustration and something else, something Hugo hadn't seen on his big stupid furry face for so, so, so long. Something that looked like love, glimmering in unshed tears at the corners of his eyes, hanging off the tip of his tongue as it lolled in confusion against the teeth in his lower jaw. "For me?"

    Fuck those puppy eyes, Hugo thought. Why isn't my Lycaon this cute any more? What happened? However badly we did by each other, why didn't we try to work something out? When did we get so fucking old and bitter and incorrigible?

    "Of course I would," Hugo snapped. "You're my partner. Why wouldn't I go back for you?"

    *****

    Young thief Lycaon walks into a rift in time, into a future where his drastically changed self and Hugo seem to have split up - badly - and don't work or live or even talk together much any more. He is, of course, intent on returning to his own Hugo, but he also wants to know what happened between these two, and how to make sure it doesn't happen to him and his Hugo.
