Summary
This feeling overcomes them all on occasion, when the full weight of eternity suddenly turns crushing. Man was not meant to witness the churn of time firsthand. Sometimes it becomes too much, too vast, too heavy. Sometimes Nicky needs to disappear, just for a little while.

Summary
“Quick question,” Bucky said.
Steve looked up, but didn’t stop moving passports and stacks of cash into a nondescript blue duffel, his mind busily ticking through logistics. He’d grab the glock taped behind the hidden drawer in the desk on their way out, and they could buy new clothes once they got across the border into neutral territory, so they didn’t need much else, apart from whatever Bucky wanted to bring. One duffle should be enough. “Yeah, honey?”
“What the fuck.”

Summary
"I wouldn't be depriving anyone," Nicky said regretfully. "Just myself. What did Luke say? 'Good luck finding someone who wants to be fucked by a battering ram'. I just don't think the guy who wants that is out there, Joe."
In a moment of supreme idiocy, and mostly because he was picturing getting fucked by Nicky's battering ram, Joe raised his hand.
Nicky stopped and stared.
"I volunteer as tribute?" Joe said weakly.

Summary
"I'm certain this is not what you wanted from a marriage any more than I did."
For a second, Joe is on the receiving end of the most intense stare he's ever seen. He almost dares to hope for an argument, something unexpected, then his husband blinks, and he's back to being that blank-faced stranger Joe first met earlier that day. "On the contrary. An advantageous match is all a prince should ever want."
It was too much to hope that Nicolò might possess wit or charm that he felt free to express behind closed doors. Joe tries to hide a sigh. On the bright side, he thinks, at least it's forever.
