    Summary

    It was bizarre how much his relationships improved with distance, but they say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Still, he didn't feel them missing like an amputated limb until recently. Maybe it was Matt and Dan's impending retirement, as they had started asking him some uncomfortably pointed questions about children and pregnancy. Maybe it was Nicky's brand new German citizenship, tying him forever outside the country.

    Or maybe it was the fact that Kevin Day had been traded to Chicago almost a year ago and he and Aaron still hadn't done more than one stilted coffee meet up three months after he moved.

    ******

    Aaron tries to keep his head above water, which becomes much harder once Kevin walks back into his life asking to be friends on purpose.

    Summary

    “There’s a new art exhibit opening tonight.”

     

    Mu Qing rolls his eyes. “Okay, and what about it?” he asks, sipping his tea.

     

    “Your wedding portrait’s one of the main pieces on display.”

     

    Mu Qing chokes and spills hot tea all over himself.

     

    (or, Feng Xin dies. Centuries later, a wedding portrait goes on display at a museum.)
