Summary
He’s catching up on work, which isn't technically a lie, since he is making some progress on the garment draped over his lap. Never mind that Bashir is working an unusually late shift tonight, and has been ensconced in the infirmary until well past Garak's normal closing hour - an unrelated fact, irrelevant to his presence in the shop, nothing to do with the fact that his light on at such a strange hour will likely draw the doctor to him like a moth to a flame.
Garak and Julian, after the Wire.

Summary
“If it wasn’t for Tain -” Garak was practically whispering now. “- you would have died in that camp. I know he only saved you as a side effect of saving himself, but even in his final moments, Tain has left me once again in his debt.”

Summary
Julian suspects - he knows, really - that Garak is invading his quarters, and his bed, because he doesn’t want to be alone.
“Fine,” he says. “If you want to share my bed so badly, so be it.”

Summary
He’d been distracted. Not by Shane Hollander, exactly, but by the man at his side. Mrs. Hollander was as beautiful as he remembered, but the man to Shane Hollander’s side looked very ordinary. He looked from his wife to his son and back again, nodding along as the Montreal owner spoke, gesturing wildly with his hands. Shane Hollander looked about as excited as Ilya felt, but it wasn’t that.
It was such a quick moment. Such a throwaway that if Ilya hadn’t been staring, he never would have seen. But Shane Hollander looked up to this ordinary man for just a second, so fast, so insignificant, and the man’s face split into a smile that reached his eyes. His hand reached out and rubbed up and down Shane Hollander’s back. Mr. Hollander, Ilya decided, must be a very kind man indeed.
Or, Ilya Rozanov in the moments before, in between, and the promise of after.
Alternatively, Ilya's relationship with Russia, his brother, and what it means to leave it all behind.

Summary
I'll be your mirror; reflect what you are, in case you don't know.
Crowley drummed his fingers briefly against his mug, and then sat back a little in his chair. He gave Aziraphale a long, appraising glance, and then seemed to come to some decision. “Listen, angel,” he said, “let me pitch you something.”
Lulled by the familiar patter of Crowley’s voice as he was, Aziraphale still recognised this to be vaguely dangerous territory. He swallowed. “Go on,” he said.

Summary
Nonlinear, Jamie thinks. Trent explained that to him once, and it stuck with him, the idea that not everything just keeps on moving forward all the time. Sometimes people fall back into old patterns, sometimes things don't happen in the right order. Sometimes you think a story is going to tell you what happens next, and instead it turns around to look the other way. But the story isn't really moving backwards when it does that, Trent said. It's just using the backwards look to build a stronger foundation for moving ahead.
"That fight was fucked up, yeah?" Jamie leans closer to Roy, smells the beer in his bottle and on his breath, remembers what it felt like to gulp one down in that bar after months of going without. Remembers what Roy's knuckles felt like smashing into his nose after years of going without.
