Summary
His eyes passed over Lance without a single hint of recognition, and he said, "Do I know you?"
Lance knew that he looked like an idiot standing there with his jaw dropped, but he couldn't help it.
This had never happened before.
Throughout all the years, in all the lives they had lived, all the centuries that had passed, one thing had never changed—they always recognized each other.

Summary
Keith opened his mouth to reply.
Don't be too familiar! Don't let him win this. He thought, trying to keep his face neutral.
Keith meant to ask his soulmate his name or maybe just say hello, not rising to the accusation thrown his way.
What came out was, "Do I know you?"
The story from Keith’s point of view. Can be read as standalone.

Summary
“Do you really not remember me?”
Lance’s back was turned, his face angled toward the sky, but the incessant tap of his fingers on the side of the swing told Keith that all Lance’s attention was directed at him, waiting for his answer.
Keith clenched his jaw. He wanted to remember Lance. He wanted to look into those ocean blue eyes and swear that he had known them before. He wanted to say that there was at least something familiar about Lance, some flicker at the back of his mind, some dormant memory just aching to be awoken.
But no matter how hard he tried, it just wasn’t true.
“I wish I did,” Keith whispered softly. “I’m sorry.”

Summary
Keith’s lips split into a small grin. “What if you and I were to form an attachment?”
“An attachment?” Lance blinked. “You’re crazy.”
“With you by my side, the world will think that I have finally found a husband. Every presumptuous mother will leave me alone, and everyone will be looking at you.” Keith grinned. “You must know, men and women are always interested in a man when they believe another, particularly a duke, to be interested in him as well.”
“And you presume Whistledown–”
“I presume that she’ll call us exactly what she sees. Me, unavailable. You, desirable.”
“It’ll never work.”
“Maybe. But provided that you do not wish to marry me and I do not wish to marry you, whatever should you have to lose?”

Summary
“Do you want to talk about what you saw?”
Keith snapped to attention at that. “You know?” He asked, disbelief in his voice. Lance must have mistaken it for wariness.
“Not the details, just that-” Lance grimaced, “while you were dreaming, everything would feel real. Nobody knows what exactly happened in there, though.”
Keith let out a punched out sound at the confirmation that his family wasn’t real, was just a figment of his imagination. “Lance, I- I had a family,” he moaned, despair evident in his tone.
“What?”
A mission gone wrong; a lifetime lived in a night. Keith is forced to contend with the aftermath of accidentally being exposed to an experimental chemical weapon and must recover while fighting to separate fiction from reality. How can he do that when the dream felt so real and still bleeds over into reality, even after waking?
