Summary
“I want my brother to remain untouched.” A disgruntled sigh, a reluctant amendment: “However untouched he’s managed to remain thus far.”
“Then that is what I will give you. At all and any cost.”
“What do you want in return?”
Neil had lit another cigarette he wouldn’t smoke, turned to look at the increasingly distant sunset. “A reason,” he’d said. “An answer, maybe. Mainly, just you.”
OR:
Months ago, Neil Josten drove a beaten Jean Moreau to PSU before returning to the Nest, Andrew and their deal.
Now, Neil has made the impossible choice to take an unconscious Andrew on the same journey, potentially breaking their deal in order to save Andrew’s life.
Neil is determined to find a way to keep his side of the bargain—to ensure that he and Andrew can stay together, safely, in Palmetto, without Riko making good on the threats that bound Andrew to the Moriyamas straight out of juvie.
What Neil doesn’t know is that there’s another form of collateral still on the table, another deal to be made.
Something no one but Andrew knew to account for.

Summary
by the time he made it into juvie, andrew wanted nothing to do with touch. it was there that he learnt that all the anger that had built up inside him could be used as a weapon, as a threat, as a way to keep off unwanted hands. it was there that he learnt how to find a way to touch without overwhelming himself; at his own terms and with his own rules. it was liberating in a way nothing had been before, a startling and dizzying rush of power that left him breathless. simultaneously it left him with an odd, foreign sense of isolation in his chest, a sense of icy detachment from the world and the people around him that he drowned behind apathy until it was too far buried to surface again.
and even now, years later, andrew was never warm. cold, icy and niggling, dogged his footsteps, ice brushing over his chest and into his heart as he yearned for touch in a way he never had before.
[or, a story about andrew's relationship with touch, and kevin.]

Summary
the truth? andrew was grieving. there was a part of him clamouring for attention, whispering, you deserve better than this.
it weighed him down, this grief. followed his every footstep, dogged him through exy games and nights spent with neil. stole his attention, his energy, his words until all that surrounded him was silence and the fiercest kind of agony that dug deep gashes into his chest. he’d spent so long convincing himself that he didn’t have a heart to feel with, that he didn’t feel anything, but it was all a lie, and, oh, how he felt it. how he felt the reality of his emotions, so intense they ate him up, consumed him like a wildfire, shut him out from the rest of the world.
but this grief, it didn’t make a goddamn difference. it didn’t make the pain retreat. it didn’t make the nightmares go away. it only made his sadness worse, depression creeping over his spine and wrapping thin hands over his throat.
[or, andrew struggles with his demons and his recovery, and the mortifying, life-saving ordeal of being known.]
