    Summary

    It’s a face Law can recognise in his sleep, thing is. Oh, his memory, ever-fallible and ever-cruel, has dulled the details over the years. But when he sees the face again (changed though it may be, paler and hollow-cheeked), in his mind’s eye it snaps once again into perfect clarity. It’s like rereading a passage from a well-loved book – a few sentences in, and you find yourself quoting the rest off by heart.

    Or maybe it’s like seeing a ghost.

    “Law,” the stranger says, sounding remarkably like he’s also seeing a ghost. Law wonders if he is professionally qualified to diagnose his own psychotic break.

    Summary

    “Ah,” he says, squinting down at the coins. He can’t make out the imprint, but he recognizes the size and color of these ones. “You either have an astoundingly good eye or you’re very well read. I assume you know where they’re from?”

    It’s hard to tell, but Marcus thinks he sees the man nod. “I’m mostly surprised that you have them at all,” his guest says. “Most places, they won’t hang on to anything from Flevance. Too much fear associated with the name.”

    A stranger walks into Marcus' shop.

    He leaves with a handful of coins.

    Summary

    Sylvain is entirely aware of the world around him falling to pieces. He doesn’t need a reminder. Their situation is dire, their options limited, and their priorities clear. He understands this.

    Now, if he could get his mind to focus on that and not on Felix in those thigh high boots, that would be brilliant.

     

    Sylvain finds himself pining hard for his childhood best friend, and encounters an unlikely person to share his woes with.
