    Summary

    Eight weeks into their final year at Watford, Baz finally returns—and he's riddled with nightmares. Simon, for more reasons than he'd like to think about, has been sleeping poorly too.

    Frayed nerves and a fragile truce carve out a space for them in the dark of night. Their room atop the tower becomes a place where they can talk and ache and profess and yearn, slowly, slowly.

    Sharing a room (with a siren) (with an open fire) is sometimes more than either one can bear. Baz wants more, but can't have it; Simon has no idea what he wants.

    Summary

    “I glance at the cup before I raise it to my lips, and one eyebrow goes up when I see what ridiculous insult he’s written on the cup today.”

    Every day Baz comes in to get coffee, and every day he finds a new insult on his cup.

    Summary

    There’s something here, between the three of them, Lockwood isn’t that oblivious. He knows George hasn’t just stuck around all this time because of his passion for the Agency they’re building. He knows Lucy wears the necklace he gave her every day. He knows the two of them get on better than he ever could have asked for, and that their closeness always makes Lockwood kind of breathless and giddy in a way he doesn’t know how to manage. What he doesn’t know is what they want from him. He doesn’t know how the thing they’ve all been circling around can ever get resolved, when Lockwood doesn’t know how to let people in the way they deserve.

    Summary

    “I have to go.” Lucy gasps out.

    Lockwood swallows harshly, face flushed. “Yeah. Me too.”

    Except they both stay there, her hands clutching his coat lapels (when did they get there?), his buried in her hair (when did they get there?), chests brushing with every heavy breath.

    “I really have to go.” Lucy says.

    “Mmhmm.” Lockwood agrees, but then his mouth is descending back to hers.

     

    or; Lucy might have left Lockwood and Co, but she can't get Lockwood out of her system.

    Summary

    “When did you last sleep?” Lucy stumbles at last, clumsy and more obvious than she meant it to be, but maybe there are no good opening lines at moments like this.

    Another one of those slow, brittle blinks. “Thursday,” Lockwood says, his voice sounding far away, untethered.

    She frowns. “Which Thursday?”

    “A Thursday.” Lockwood tilts his head slightly, a statue coming to slow life. “We still have those, don’t we?”
