He was all four every single day, but now for the first time, everyone knew.
And it was better than he ever could have imagined.

Summary
Neuvillette collects restraint like others collect gold. But restraint is a heavy currency. It buys silence. Loneliness. Longing.
Wriothesley, though, he collects bruises and banter. Smirks and broken rules. He lives in the heat of bodies pressed too close in prison corridors, in laughter that dares the world to quiet it. He lives loud. He fights harder. But he sees Neuvillette.
And that’s what undoes Neuvillette more than anything.
Not the desire.
Not the ache.
But being seen.
Or, the things Neuvillette freely collects, and the things Wriothesley freely gives.

Summary
"It's just two years, Sokka. Two years and I'm free."
---
The ice has been Sokka's life for as long as he can remember. Learning to skate at his family's rink preceded learning to walk. The rink has been his safe place through everything; an ADHD diagnoses, an injury in his favorite sport, the death of his mom and his first girlfriend, and a myriad of mental health issues stemming from all of those things. If only he didn't have to share it with the stuck up rich kid that just moved into town. The rink needs the money Zuko's family brings in from renting it four days out of the week, but Sokka's not sure he can last dealing with the high demands of a professional figure skater.(Or: Zuko is a professional figure skater with expectations he can never live up to and Sokka is a college hockey player who really wishes the guy constantly getting on his nerves wasn't so gorgeous.)

Summary
The Chief Justice, with his guardedness and meticulous planning, wouldn't have dared confess without dissecting every emotion, every potential consequence beforehand.
And yet.
The way Neuvillette had carried himself suggested otherwise. Like something had wrenched hold of him, something he was afraid to let go for fear of what it might bring. It dawned on Wriothesley then, as he watched Neuvillette idly fiddle with the ruffles of his sleeves, that in his hundreds of years of living, he had probably never expressed interest in anyone before.
And that was a truly terrifying thought, indeed.
Plagued by nightmares and increasing grief, only fond memories of Wriothesley seem to offer Neuvillette any comfort. But when Neuvillette quietly tiptoes into the Duke’s office late one evening and confesses, both find themselves faced with a choice: continued isolation or love's uncharted path.
For those exhausted by life’s burdens, perhaps it’s only a love that can be found in each other's embrace that can offer true respite.

Summary
Wriothesley’s own words, coming back to bite him in the ass, almost verbatim. He frowns.
“Did Neuvillette put you up to this?”
“What?”
“We had a similar conversation recently, and I know you’re friends.”
Clorinde laughs like he just told an excellent joke.
“In case you haven’t noticed yet, Monsieur Neuvillette doesn’t DO friends. It’s strictly business with him, for everyone except Lady Furina, perhaps, since they’ve been working closely together for a long time… And you.”
Wriothesley accepts kindness, Neuvillette accepts intimacy, and they both find love in between
