Summary
This year, Quentin’s third birthday since they arrived at the mosaic, he woke up to Eliot kissing his forehead. There was no such thing as strictly non-platonic touch with Eliot, but this felt like it was pushing it.
***
Quentin has a very happy birthday.

Summary
“I wrote Q a letter, then me and Alice dropped it down a well at the top of the Mountain of Ghosts, yada yada yada,” Eliot says. “But I didn’t think it would *actually* reach him.”
Julia’s eyes go wide. “What did it say?”
He opens his mouth to tell her, but Quentin beats him to the punch.
“To Quentin Coldwater, before he went to the Seam: Come back, asshole.”
“Um. Yeah. That.”
—————————
In which Quentin returns to the land of the living for the very simple reason that Eliot asked him to.

To: Quentin Coldwater, Before He Went to the Seam by Nicholas_Lucien

Summary
Eliot wrote his note to Quentin. The time stamp knew precisely when to deliver the message - when it would be most needed.
This is to the prompt: Either Week 2: It’s been a long time or Week 5: Returning after absence (or returning to being themselves). Or a bit of both.

Summary
Last night, after a candlelit dinner with fresh-baked bread, after lightning bug chasing and bathtime by the fire and hugs and kisses and tucking Teddy in and telling him one of the fabulous Legends of Bambi the Destroyer, Quentin and Eliot sat together in the mouth of the cottage and cried.

Summary
“Damn,” Quentin says. “It’s really coming down out there.” His head was stuck nearly outside, hair tumbling over his shoulders as he leaned out the window. He pulled his head back in. “Do you think he’s okay? Should we check on him?”
Eliot snorted. “You mean should we go out in the rain and muck and get all wet and dirty to make sure our thirteen-year-old son hasn’t drowned in a puddle? I think it’s okay, Q.”
***
Quentin, Eliot, and their son on a rainy afternoon.

Summary
Ari is close enough that the gathering twilight doesn’t matter. She’s resplendent, seems almost to be glowing as he kisses each knuckle. “Mmm. Better than okay. Just… got lost in thought.”
That smirk that he so loves makes an appearance. “You didn’t hurt yourself, did you?”
Quentin is definitely spending too much time with Eliot, if the authenticity of his theatrical gasp is any metric to measure by. “Oh, that was low.” Her captivating laughter is enough to bring everything around them back into sharp relief as he sits up, eyes narrowed at Ari, who regards him with her eyebrows and chin raised in an obvious challenge. “So. That’s how it’s gonna be, huh?”
or, That Time Quentin And Ari Were Playful And Soft
