    Summary

    It makes Eddie feel warm in the way that polite boys always do, and even though he can hear a future version of himself cussing him out, he holds out his lighter to Steve—he’s not sure why, but he can picture him clearly, lying in a modest twin bed, walls plastered with Nocturnal Afterglow posters. One hand under the covers, touching himself shyly as he plays with the flame.

    Steve takes it from him, puppy dog eyes blinking frantically in surprise. He looks down at the lighter in his hands like Eddie’s turned water into wine.

    “So, Steve,” he says slowly, sampling how the name tastes in his mouth. “Are you really a fan of our music?”

     

    Steve offers himself up as a sacrifice, but Eddie would rather have something else.

    Summary

    When the teacher turns away, Harrington sighs. Slouches in his seat. Tips his head back far enough that their eyes accidentally meet. It's not Harrington who looked away first. It almost never was. In the dream, though, Billy can look and look. And look, and look, and look. The devil doesn't mind about this part of him. Maybe appreciates how useful it is.

    Summary

    With the rise and fall of the water, he felt just as much thrown back onto his ship as he’d been tossed off of it. He was glad for having turned on so many lights. As he heaved himself back onto the diving platform and landed on his side to catch his breath, he didn’t want to imagine having to navigate this situation in the pitch dark…

    Because a face was watching him from the water.

    Steve might’ve contemplated what it meant for his soul to leave his body, but now it felt like it truly flew the coop.

    Summary

    “Where’d you hear it,” Harrington says, finally.

    Eddie gestures up. Around in a circle. Then just watches his hand travel in the air, distracted by his own rings. “Thanks man, yeah, that helps so much,” Harrington says, meanly, when the pause stretches on. “Great fucking talking to you.”

    “Does it matter where?”

    “Kind of why I asked,” Harrington says.

    Eddie pushes himself upright.

    “Your—young squire,” he says. “Has a lot of—biology homework. Of late.”

    “Fuck,” Harrington says.
