    Summary

    I didn’t realize how important this was to you, Charles admitted, sending along the impression of… gratitude. Gratitude that Erik cared this much. I’m not who I used to be, though. I’m not the same.

    And neither am I, Erik replied, leaning back against the headboard. I have no expectations. I just want to help, if I can.

    Mental silence fell between them—Charles was still there, drifting carefully in the center of Erik’s thoughts, but he was thinking, guarding the quiet metronome of his thoughts from Erik.

    What if this doesn’t work? Charles asked, uncertain.

     

    What if it does?

    Summary

    This page of the story comes from another realm and time. Imagine if the Flame-Chase had been grounded to Earth, the golden-blood Chrysos Heirs of Amphoreus instead the demigod heroes of Classical Greek myth…

    Amphoreus, 350 BC.

    Summary

    Erik realized quickly that their living together wasn’t the ideal situation. Charles carried on in blissful denial, finding ways to cope with a mind he longed to know and a boundary he would not cross.
    He found ways to distract himself from the promised pleasure of his roommate’s thoughts, sneaking there at the periphery of his own, not able to realize Erik is begging to be let in.

    Summary

    “Gandalf is going to turn me into a weasel,” Pippin told Boromir. “I shall need a pocket to ride in. May I borrow yours?”

    Boromir blinked. “Oh,” he said. “Ohh. Yes, certainly, so long as you are a weasel-sized weasel and not a hobbit-sized weasel.”

    Pippin turned to Gandalf, caught by this new idea. “Can you make me into a hobbit-sized weasel?”

    “For mercy's sake,” said Gandalf.

    In which Pippin has approximately sixty uninterrupted leagues to find out everything that can be found out from Gandalf and gets approximately sixty times more than he bargained for.

    Summary

    There's not a whole lot that Natasha has ever struggled to do on her own. It is with great pride that she upholds her community, be it through her free services or through channels of Wildfire - never has she slowed down to think about what she could be capable of with a few extra hands. Certainly, it'd ease the ache in her back from shouldering all this responsibility, and yet she's loathe to put it down.

    Enter Sampo Koski, stage left.

     

    (A look into the developing relationship of Natasha and Sampo over the years prior to the Astral Express' first contact with Jarilo-VI.)
