    Summary

    A series of 5+1 vignettes throughout Qifrey and Olruggio's lives all centering around Olly's facial hair. Takes place pre-canon through post-canon.

    “It’s your, um, beard,” says Qifrey. To call it a beard is a bit of an overstatement. Dark hairs sprout from the edges of his friend’s face, some in patches and others as lone soldiers in wide expanses of skin.
    “You like it?” Olly’s eyes light up and he instinctually runs his hand over his jaw once more. “I think it’s coming in pretty nicely if I do say so myself.” The smugness with which Olly turns his chin, as if to get his face in just the right light from the lamp next to him, tips Qifrey back off the edge and into safer territory.
    “Maybe if you’re trying to grow a swordcarrot garden on your face,” Qifrey quips. “And a patchy one at that.”

    Summary

    “I’d like a new chapter with you by my side,” Olruggio starts slowly, gaze unwavering. The determination in his eyes is so familiar- it’s the way that he looks at an incomplete seal just before he finishes it, the way he fits a contraption together just right to overlap their keystones.
    “Qifrey, I’d like- I’d like a next chapter with us as- as more than friends.”

    /OR/ 5 times Qifrey and Olruggio could have gotten together and 1 time they actually did.

    Summary

    “He’s not here,” Coco blurts while Tetia nods along frantically behind her. “He went out ages ago and didn’t come back for dinner and we’re getting worried—“

    “It’s Qifrey,” Olruggio snorts. “He probably got distracted by a passing—“

    A clap of thunder sounds outside, illuminating the bridge with a burst of light, and Olruggio stops. His eyes flash to the window, as if he’s only just noticed the storm, and he goes very still. Then he rounds on them and demands, “How long has it been raining?”

    It's storming outside, and Qifrey hasn't come home.

    Summary

    The hands at his waist grip a little tighter. Qifrey, who has been cautiously opening himself to this kind of physical contact in the past few months, has been surprised to discover that he likes it—being held, pressed, kept tight. It stokes the part of him that is terrified of being trapped, just enough to keep him from relaxing.

    It’s precisely this interplay between comfort and uneasiness that made him consider the possibility of using it to their advantage.

    (Or: an exploration of trauma, healing and acceptance, of settling into one's own skin, and of what it means to make a home in one's heart.)
