    Summary

    “I don’t care what it is,” Olruggio says, and is certain of the truth of this, just as he is certain: “I can help. Let me help. Whatever you’ve done, whatever you’re doing, I forgi-“

    Qifrey’s hand pushes over his mouth.

    --

    Qifrey gives Olruggio a lot of mixed signals in very short succession.

    Summary

    Coco doesn't continue her spell practice that first night she discovers the secret of magic—she hides the evidence away to continue later. And so she does not meet Qifrey a second time, and so many things happen differently.

    Months later, Agott is dragged along to a trip to an outsider village, because visiting the tailor is apparently a group activity. She meets a curious girl there.

    ~*~*~

    AU where Coco never joins the atelier, and instead practices magic in secret out of her picture book.

    Summary

    “We’re rich?” Tetia exclaimed. She had been sitting with this information for approximately thirty seconds, which was about her limit. “We’ve been rich?” She pushed back from the table. “Master Olly.” She pointed at him, scandalized. “Last month, when I asked if I could have that embroidered skirt from the market in Kalhn, you said—”

    “I said you didn’t need any new clothes. Which is true.”

    “You said we had a budget.”

    “We do have a budget. A budget is just—” But he had already lost control of the conversation.

    ~

    Olruggio never made a big deal about the money his specialized commissions got him. They got what they needed, and some extra at that. To the others, however, it is quite a revelation.

    Summary

    A decade on testosterone had given Qifrey routine, confidence, and a body that finally felt his own. Yet it hadn't cured the loneliness. Untouched and craving a validation he couldn't quite name, he finally gives in to a moment of reckless impulse and posts three anonymous photos to Reddit.

    He expected a few casual comments. He didn't expect a blacksmith from New Jersey to upend his night.

    From a public comment to the intimacy of a phone call, Qifrey finds himself undone by a deep, gravelly voice in his ears.

    "is it wrong that i'm starin at ya post right now? Making me feel pretty special aren't ya, angel?"

    Summary

    Olruggio wrapped his arms around Qifrey’s waist and pulled him close. He rested his chin on Qifrey’s shoulder, warm and real and solid. Qifrey returned the gesture, his eye sliding shut. He let out a breath. They remained that way for a long while, leaning against each other. This could not ease Qifrey—he’d managed a delicate balance that allowed him to indulge in these small ways while retaining his ever-present fear—but Olruggio’s weight became heavier and heavier as he relaxed into it.

    Qifrey could do these things for Olruggio; he could take care of him, though it would never make up for everything that he had done.
    -
    Qifrey and Olruggio build themselves a home. The days pass in the closest thing to domestic bliss that Qifrey can manage. It cannot last.
