    Summary

    The sad man doesn’t always need flowers for the dead, thankfully. Sometimes he says it’s a gift for a woman or a kid. He always talks about the flowers’ recipients as if he is reading from a report, his tone almost detached, but Joe can distinguish the lines of emotion here and there, like delicate little blooms growing between wild bushes.

    “Widower, late sixties. Loves tea and detective novels. No children or pets.”

    Chrysanthemums, gladiolus, and forget-me-nots.

    “Teenage boy. No siblings but many cousins. Likes football and a German rock band.”

    Daisies, columbines, and snapdragons.

    Sometimes the sad man doesn’t show up for a couple of months, and Joe begins to wonder if perhaps he has imagined him after all.

    Joe owns a flower shop where he makes the most beautiful bouquets and arrangements. He takes real pride in his work.

    Unfortunately, he cannot say the same about his non-existent romantic life. Joe wonders if that’s the reason why he has been paying too much attention to his new client, a beautiful man with big eyes and a sad face.

    Summary

    “We know that for all the Wizarding claims to be superior, they are just as prejudiced as non-magical people.”

     

    If McGonagall was offended by this, she didn’t show it, instead, clearing her throat. “Is he happy here?”

     

    “Very.”

     

    She then turned to Nicky and Joe, “And… you are his parents?”

     

    “We are.” Joe tensed just a little, “I hope that’s not a problem?”

    Summary

    Andy shakes her head, trying to get him steady enough to make any kind of sense. “Book, what…fuck…what happened?!” Her confusion dies and worry sets in deep when Booker sways, blood seeping in rivulets down his chin and fingers. “Jesus, you need to go to a fucking hospital. Just let me get my—”

    He shakes his head again, even more frantic now, and Andy can barely breathe when Booker barks out a broken, “She took the f-fucking boys, Andy!”

    Six months after coming to terms with their feelings for one another, Andy finds herself thrown headfirst into the reality Booker has been living when his wife discovers their secret and disappears with the boys.

    This time, she can't just sit on the sidelines.

    Summary

    A shudder runs through her at the thought of 'what if Andy didn’t get to me when she did', and she shakes her head under the spray of the water to make it go away.

    The one feeling that does stick with her is the loneliness. Even though she’s now surrounded by people like her, they are at minimum hundreds of years older, have so much more life experience, and she–

    She doesn’t know where she fits in yet. Especially now that there’s a Booker shaped hole in their group.

    or,

    A look at Nile a few days after they leave Booker at the edge of the Thames.

    Summary

    It had not been long after they first met Nicolò and Yusuf, that Andromache started grumbling about them being young fools in love.

    Quỳnh laughed. “I remember another pair,” she said, “who were young and foolish in love.”

    Andromache smiled a little, though the memory ached. “Foolish, yes,” she said, “but I wasn’t young.”
