    Summary

    “Nethrin?” Hadvar asked softly.
    “I- don't let go. Not yet. Please?”
    “Nethrin, do you-?” Hadvar couldn't bring himself to finish his question.
    “Do I?”
    “Do you like,” Hadvar hesitated again, taking a deep breath before losing half his nerve, “men?” Hadvar couldn't stop from moving the hand on Nethrin's hip and wrapping his arm around Nethrin's lower back.
    Nethrin's lips parted and his gaze locked on Hadvar's lips. “Yes,” He whispered.
    Hadvar leaned in hesitantly, not quite kissing the small Dunmer, not yet, anyway. He wanted to give Nethrin a chance to say no, a chance to back away.
    But Nethrin didn't, so Hadvar closed the gap and kissed him.

    Summary

    Lestat walked back over and handed the test to Louis, still in its cloth, swaddled like a newborn. Louis looked. The word Pregnant sat looking up at him. Oh. Hm.

    Summary

    Young Hephaistion and Alexander are obviously into each other, but they don’t seem to muster the courage to make a move about it. A simple shift in the prince’s behavior stirs up trouble among the pages, creating quite the scandal as every boy immediately starts to court him.
    Turns out King Philip’s strategies work outside of the battlefield as well.

    (or: Teenage boys were a handful in Ancient Macedon as well.)

    Summary

    Pat is an overlooked nurse at Atalanti General Hospital. His days are filled with appointments, assisting doctors and caring for the unwell.

    Until someone attempts to assassinate President Atremenos.

    What follows is not definable, as Pat's anonymity comes to an end and he is thrust upon a pedestal like he is a king amongst nobles by some of the highest echelons in Greek politics. Pat struggles with becoming the apparent centre of the world, but more importantly...

    Why do these people keep asking for his name when he has given it three times already?

    Summary

    Achilles tilts his chin up defiantly, in an effort to stare Patroclus down. He only succeeds in looking like a petulant child. “It is considered a great honour to be a therapon to a prince, you know.”

    “Honour is meant to be earned, not handed out as if to a beggar, or a dog.”

    Achilles’ nostrils flare, his green-gold eyes gleaming dangerously. “Such scorn from someone who was training to be a common footsoldier just this morning. Many of the boys back at the yard would beg for this chance.”

    “Then you should have chosen one of them, perhaps." Patroclus glances down at the expensive chiton and his brand new arms, and hates how heavy and foreign they feel on him. “I didn’t ask for any of this.”

    The last thing Patroclus wants is to become therapon to the Prince of Phthia. He had his fill of princelings back when he lived in Opus—hell, he used to be one himself. He doesn't need some stuck-up demigod to size him up and appoint him his glorified manservant. He'd much rather pass, thank you very much.

    Achilles, however, is unlike any prince he's ever met.
