    Summary

    Joel wipes his mouth against his arm, taking a quick sip from the glass of water he’s been spending the past hour staring at. He clears his throat, then meets her eyes. “What did you just say?”

    She rests her cheek against her hand, elbows still propped up on the table. “I asked if you wanted to get married at some point.”

    Joel nearly chokes again. “I mean, I—Tess.”

    “Take your time.”

     

    Tess lives and makes it back to Jackson with Joel and Ellie. Something has to shift.

    Ft. Joel being incredibly emotionally constipated and Tess being a good mom.

    Summary

    The first time he had stolen it, it had been because he was intrigued. Many men who came into Maison Elise had trinkets on them, valuable jewellery or fine handkerchiefs, gifts for their favourite prostitutes, but not many grown men were walking around Paris with little wooden toys.

    It was not worth anything when Fergus had stolen it, he could not sell it for much certainly, but it had been too tempting not to take.

    Fergus had never had a toy before. He made do of course, there were plenty of things for him to meddle with in the halls of the parlour, not to mention the streets of Paris, to keep himself entertained; but a toy was something else entirely. It was frivolous, devoid of any purpose beyond entertainment and joy. Fergus did not often have the luxury of such things.

    Summary

    “Oi, Molloy!” a sketchy-looking guy with a camera says, a little too loudly for a gallery opening — obviously a paparazzi. “Nice shirt!”

    “Aww, thanks, Schneider,” says Dad with absolutely toxic politeness that suggests he and the guy have butted heads before, which, yeah, that tracks with Dad’s mission to make everyone in his profession hate him.

    He holds his leather jacket open for a photo, and yup, the shirt says EAT THE RICH in red, slightly shimmering letters. Cute.

    “Nice.” The pap snaps some pics. “So how does that square with your billionaire — sorry, multi-millionaire — boytoy over there?”

    “One, I’m the boytoy here, and two, you should have seen what I did to him earlier today.”

    Okay, Lauren’s not hungry any more. Jesus Christ, Dad.

     

    or: Daniel's daughters are invited to Armand's latest gallery opening. Molloy family shenanigans and awkwardness ensue.
