    Summary

    Nyx tells him to stay in the House, to be wary. There are dangers outside, things that he doesn’t yet understand.
    Thanatos promises, and why would Nyx doubt him? He is a precocious child, and one eager to please his mother. As Nyx is quick to say, he is a good son; he wears his godhood with the maturity of one far older.
    But it is new, so new. When Nyx isn’t looking, Thanatos can't help but explore.
    So new: the stone and gloom of Tartarus, the orange burn of Asphodel, the rolling fields of Elysium. The coolness of the ground beneath the bushes, the way they catch at his hair when he hides in them. The light touch of the butterflies that soon begin to follow him, lonely souls that they are. The way they fluster and flutter as Mort snaps at them.
    It is a calm life, a still life, but one so very quiet around the edges.

    «««««««« ─────── · I · ─────── ««««««««

    It isn’t easy growing up, even when you aren’t Death Incarnate.
    OR: a story following Thanatos as he learns to navigate the living, the dead, and, worst of all, feelings.

    Summary

    'No he wasn't sure when it happened. But one day it had- he was unable to dream of anything outside the ship.
    At first it made sense- he recalibrated his fantasies to more attainable ones. They weren't completely grounded in reality, Gibson's berth was too small for pretty much anything, too small for just himself let alone another person. But on days when he couldn't get his hands on him, he'd lay awake picturing Hickey sneaking in, hand over his mouth-
    But this spread and soon it was all his thoughts. Like the ship was a border he couldn't cross, even in his mind. Just as the ships couldn't cut through the ice, neither could his dreams.'

    Summary

    Billy Gibson can't believe this is his life now: walking for hours on end, breathless, sweaty and sleepless. He feels the muscles in is legs aching, he had a cramp earlier that morning but that didn't stop the march, the straps, tight on his chest with the weight he carries, don't help him keeping balance.
    They've been out since dawn, rocky terrain under his feet. The early hours had been cold, now the sun is high and he's sweating. In this landscape everything is against him. There are no breaks nor pauses, at least not until lunch time, he's tried to get them to stop but nobody wants to hear his pleas. There's only a strange unnatural silence around them. Billy sighs, wonders if he's ever going to make it alive, to go back home in one piece, the only thing left is for him to focus on is his breath.

    "Christ, Billy" Solomon blurts, turning back towards him "it's only been an hour."

    Summary

    “Where are you going?” Solomon asks Billy, his voice hushed. He glances over his shoulder, then back at Billy. “They’ll have us hanged.”
    “The train station,” Billy says.
    “Where?” Solomon asks.
    Billy shrugs, glances up at the sky.
    “The coast,” Billy replies. “Scotland. Then…”
    “Orkney,” Solomon says. “And—“
    “After a year, after they forget about us, America,” Billy says.

    ///

    After returning to England and seeing Cornelius Hickey hanged, Billy Gibson realizes he has to flee or face the same fate. But as he runs, Solomon Tozer catches up to him and asks to come with.
    What follows is a long series of hard months in a tiny two room cabin on an island in Orkney, Scotland, away from the world, but not away from their thoughts.
    But something's missing... Cornelius is missing. But in his absence, he feels realer and more present than ever.

    Summary

    ‘Hickey had found Billy Gibson in his cabin, and drawn the curtain across almost lazily, to give them both a bit of privacy. He knew an open curtain would arouse less suspicion than a closed one – but it was all bustle as the watch changed over, and besides, the officers who might want for Gibson at this hour were either on deck or abed. He’d checked. Lieutenant Irving with his sanctimonious little head stuck in a Bible somewhere in the officer’s mess or his cabin. Lieutenants Little and Hodgson on deck, a fine pair, one with a face like a kicked puppy and the other like a puppy that ought to be kicked.

    So, they’d not be disturbed. Not for a few hours.’

    Or, Gibson cuts Hickey’s hair and gets a good caulking in return. Featuring a chat with Jopson, regarding Hickey's less-than-inconspicuous nocturnal activities.

    Summary

    “I noticed the way you’re looking at him,” Billy said, and since Sol’s face must be such an easy read for him, he didn’t even wait for Sol to speak before he clarified: “Hickey. You look like an excited puppy whenever he spares you as much as a glance. Lapping up his attention like a needy little bitch. It’s pathetic, honestly.”
    ---
    Sol has a boyfriend. Billy has a fiancé. Sol has been looking at Billy’s fiancé, which Billy does not like one bit. He confronts Sol about it, but instead of simply telling him to sod off, things take a different turn, and suddenly Sol finds himself at Billy’s mercy: confused, humiliated, and extremely turned on.

    Summary

    “Have you ever encountered a situation that you can’t fuck your way out of, Solomon Tozer?”

    “Yes.” Tozer set her shot glass hard on the bar. “Franklin Survey yearly review. Crozier’s only into femmes.”

    “Well, that’s obvious.”
