Summary
"There was only a gasp and a single tear falling down Nureyev's cheek. It was glacial, the way his facade broke down while the tear made its way down his face, leaving only pain and fear.
Juno couldn't bear it and quickly crossed the distance between them. His eyes widened when Nureyev caressed his face and kissed him. It was… like nothing else.
Just like Peter Nureyev.
And yet after a year of “good morning” kisses and “come to bed” kisses and “you're so weird I love you” kisses… Juno couldn't help but cry at what this kiss meant. Because only a goodbye kiss could taste so bittersweet."
OR I was thinking about how this podcast could end and this is an scenario that stuck to my mind. I won't call it a prediction because I kinda hope we get a happier ending but I could live with something like this... *goes to cry in a corner*

Summary
Like with many other human predilections, Peter Nureyev would not consider himself to desire sex, at least in the traditional senses. Don’t get him wrong, he enjoys sex, quite a bit actually. But that drive, that passion, that desperation and growing heat and yearning to have another body against yours, had never been an aspect of his personal sex life.
Now, the desperation to hear your Lady make all those pretty noises, and to slowly, meticulously, make him lose all sense of language and conscious thought? Well, that was something Peter was well acquainted with. -

Summary
"The light that filters through the curtains into their bedroom has that soothing purple tone that feels nostalgic to Nureyev. Almost lavender. It washes over their bed, gently. A familiar weight rests against his back. A familiar warmth. He turns around and lets himself be drawn by the infinite and beautiful gravity of Juno Steel".
Nureyev tries (and fails?) to grapple with the events of Recipe for Disaster Part I. Please don't read it before you have listened to the ep to avoid *spoilers*.

Summary
"Never been a fan of blood. So I avoid looking at the slaughter-fest of my right leg. I stare at Nureyev instead, still frantically pushing chairs against the door. He has a far away look in his eyes, and his fingers keep trembling. When he runs out of chairs, he turns to look at me.
And he looks… angry. Angrier than he was ten minutes ago. I can still hear his words echoing in the building. It should have been me."
Nureyev and Juno have difficult conversations, or try to, in the worst of situations. Nevermind that Juno can hardly look at his right leg without feeling sick. Set in a hypothetical future season 5 episode. Whumptober prompt 6: It should have been me.

Summary
“That’s your dad?” Jingyi asks slowly.
“Yes?” Sizhui sits up a little, propped on his elbows. He feels wrong-footed, and glances back at the picture for some sort of hint as to what’s going on. “Why?”
Jingyi sits up, too, and hands the phone back.
“Your dad is my dad’s ex-husband,” he says bluntly. “Come on. Get your jacket. We’ll need ice cream for this one.”
It’s a very strange way to have your life turned completely upside down, Sizhui thinks.
