    Summary

    “Five hundred something days. I stopped counting, after a while. Time’s stuck, and I don't want it to get un-stuck because that would mean…that would mean that it’s going to be saturday at some point, and I’m not ready for that yet.”
    Valentino looks stunned and, perhaps, a little sick to his stomach. His cheeks have taken on a sickly grayish hue – it usually happens when he’s got an upset stomach, or a brain-shattering migraine.
    “What…what’s wrong with saturday?”
    There’s no way to put it nicely, so Marc does what he does best: he rips the band-aid off at once, still keeping Valentino close, close enough that he can feel his heartbeat pressed into his own chest, strong and fast as it ripples through the mattress.
    “You die on saturday. And the world is ending because I don’t want you to die.”

    In an attempt to prevent Valentino's death, Marc almost causes the end of the world.

    Summary

    “And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, slouches towards Bethlehem to fucking bitch me out.”

    “Hullo, Paddy. You’re looking well.”

    Or perhaps he simply looks like the version of him Bill used to know – clean shaven and sun-blasted – and maybe, after all this time, there is a kind of comfort in that.

    --

    Or: after one of David's hiking trips ends in disaster, Paddy and Bill would be glad if they never crossed paths again, only to run into each other years later.

    Summary

    They wouldn’t know what to do with a girl like Dick in the service if they were handed half a dozen manuals and a map. They ought to have given her a commission on sight; they ought to have given her a rifle and a direct line to Eisenhower and a million dollars. Instead they stuck her with a couple of stripes and a job on a switchboard and Lew. They would make do with that.

    Summary

    Andy gets it.

    Fitzjames rose from his chair and held out his hand. “Cheer up, Francis, we’re climbing Everest.”

    Christ alive. 

    “No one since Mallory has found that a cheerful idea,” Francis said and shook Fitzjames’ hand, which was warm and slender and startlingly soft. “And look where he ended up.”

    Summary

    "It had been two years since returning to their homeland. It was difficult at first, but things had gotten easier with time. Thomas wasn’t sure he’d ever be happy again, not true happiness, not when everything was tainted by the things he’d seen. But he was content, and he was glad to wake in the same house as Edward Little. That was enough, that would carry him through to the rest of his days."

    Thomas is Edward's valet. There's apple picking, and baking, and kissing.
