    Summary

    Every once in a while, a huntsman will lose his hounds, will lose his gun, will lose his trail.
    But he won’t lose his prey.

    Or, instead of coming to blows, Rehman and Aslam get lost in the forest.
    It is the worst game of cat and mouse the world has ever seen.

    “Why,” he asks, voice hoarse, “Do you want to kill me so much?”

    This, he knows, is the kind of questions that come from a tired mind. He does not bother to ask men these things, usually, the same way one does not ask a dog why it bites.

    The gun is heavy in his hand.

    “Why,” the other man answers, stopping and looking back, “Do you want to live so much?”

    Summary

    Goffredo Tedesco has spent the first year of Pope Innocent's papacy angry, afraid, and confused, his only wish to remain as he has been his entire life. But growth, as he's about to discover, can sometimes occur in the most unexpected of situations--and is much easier when you find someone to grow for.

    And sometimes, those people teach you how to grow for yourself.

     

    Or

    Tedesco experiences paternal instincts and has no idea how to feel about it.

    Summary

    On his phone were the old articles Sabbadin had sent him, naming him a “favorite candidate” and “frontrunning papabile.” Aldo could not deny the mingled pleasure and anxiety the articles had brought him in the days before the conclave. Now he saw how ridiculous he had been, to enjoy the tawdry feeling of popularity, simply because he had never felt popular before in his life.

    There had been such confidence in him. He knew he was unworthy of it at the time. He had not known how much.

    Aldo struggles after the conclave. Vincent is there.

    Summary

    Aldo Maria Bellini can pinpoint the exact second that the Vatican went to shit, and that was when the late Pope, God rest his soul, granted Thomas Lawrence his retirement five years ago. But also it was probably when they made Tedesco the Pope.

    A sister fic to In this parish we share, detailing exactly when Aldo started tolerating Tedesco enough to let him into his office. To have drinks. Late at night.

    “Easy,” the man says, like Daniel’s a fucking horse. “You’re okay. I’m just checking up on you.”

    He’s pretty like this, lips downturned, dark skin and eyes like cut glass. He looks right at home in this place, in his nice jacket, like he’d neatly stepped away from corralling a cohort of bushy-tailed interns to come play babysitter to the old man at the bar.

    Or, two vampires walk into a bar. Daniel Molloy, sixty-five and dying, is already there.

    (Amadeo feels small and stupid and very scared, suddenly, trembling like a leaf the whole way to their bed, and he unbuckles the belt papa had buckled just a few hours before, and once he’s got his torso over the bed and his feet still grazing the floor he pulls his pants down over the curve of his ass until he’s bare right where he’s the most embarrassed about, and only then does papa approach. He breathes even and slow. There is no sound of rings being removed.

    “I’m sorry,” Amadeo says. It sounds wet coming out but he does not sob. He doesn’t even feel scared anymore, just sad and tired. ”I didn’t mean it.”

    “I know you didn’t,” papa says lightly. “We were having such a nice night, angel.”)
