    Summary

    No story that starts with an overpass and a bottle of vodka ends well.

    Here’s how it goes: boy is lonely. Alcohol and overpass cliche. Boy meets boy. Boy loves boy. Boy does not say a word about it. Happy montage. Slice of life montage. Sad montage. Boy and boy grow further apart. Boy leaves boy. Boy does not get over it. Alcohol and overpass cliche returneth. Boy is lonely.

    Sisyphean indeed.

    :::

    Disillusioned, depressed and drunk, Viktor forgoes throwing himself off an overpass and takes the only marginally better route of texting his long-estranged best friend instead.

    Or: Jayce turns up on Viktor’s doorstep after five years.

    Summary

    “Lest is on her way. Can you sip?”

    He doesn't know. He's certain he doesn't want to. He gives the slightest nod anyway, trying to unfurl his fingers to take the mug. Jayce just leans forward, blowing across the tea to cool it before pressing the rim of the teacup to Viktor’s lips. Jayce tilts it with a carefulness that's almost absurd. Viktor is terribly grateful.

    Summary

    After Parker goes down, Eliot sees red. Goes somewhere he doesn’t like to go, shadowy corners in the deep recesses of his mind, the place where “knowledge of guns” sits next to “how to rip out a heart through the chest cavity.” He’s armed but doesn’t remember picking up a weapon; seven-eight-ten-twelve thugs rush him and there’s two for every one he topples, but Eliot doesn’t feel pain, he just feels impact.

    They hurt Parker. People who hurt Parker die.
