Summary
Shane clings to Ryan, too. He’s famous for going for walks or out to lunch without saying a word to anyone, but now he tells Ryan before he goes. Invites him along most of the time too. Sometimes they walk around the block together in silence. Ryan’s not good with silence, but Shane is. Sometimes their hands knock into each other while they walk. Sometimes Ryan wants to grab Shane’s fingers and hold on until the world ends.
He never does.

Summary
Ryan crowds him against the car door, his arms bracketing him in. “Take me home, Shane.”
This isn’t the first time one of them’s asked. Last time it was Shane, half-drunk in Nottingham, leaning against Ryan’s hotel door. Ryan kindly rebuffed him, citing the shoot the next day. One of them always declines. That’s the move, a dance repeated a half-dozen times over the years. There’s no need to talk about it, they know what the right move is. They’re always on the same wavelength.
Shane goes to push Ryan away, but he stops when he sees Ryan’s eyes, dark and glittering as coal.
Trust me.
Okay.

“Tell me it’s going to be okay,” Ryan says. He’s seated now, too, his knees centimeters from Shane’s. “Please?”

Summary
“Why are you here?” Ryan repeats, waving to the office around them. “At Watcher.”
“Well, when three coworkers hate their corporate overlords very much…”
Ryan shoves at Shane’s chair with his foot. “I’m serious.”
Shane shrugs. “I don’t know what you want me to say. You asked me to start a company with you and Steven and I said yes.”
“Yeah, but why?”

Summary
“No, why…why are you doing this? Helping me?”
“You needed help,” he said simply.
“But you don’t know me. I could be dangerous, a raider or undercover FEDRA or something,” Ryan pointed out.
“I know you a little, now. You’re twenty-five, almost twenty-six, you’re probably from California, you’re not very good at not getting shot, and you trusted me. What else do I need to know?”
Taken aback by how observant he was, Ryan blanked on anything more clever to say. “Uh. My name?”
“Which is…?”
“Ryan.”
A stranger no-more, he gave Ryan a little wave. “Shane.”

Summary
The letter is from the mayor, which doesn’t immediately raise any alarm bells. He’s always sending out reminders for local events or random requests for assistance, so Ryan opens it without much thought.
Andrew’s curling handwriting announces: Dear Ryan, I would like to give you some information about an upcoming event: the Feast of the Winter Star. It’s a time for the community to come together and think back on all the good fortune we’ve had this year. A favorite tradition is the “secret gift exchange”, where everyone in town is randomly assigned to someone else. This year, your secret friend is: Shane. Don’t tell anyone! The feast will take place on the 25th at the town square. See you then! - Mayor Ilnyckyj
“Oh,” Ryan says thoughtfully. “That sounds like fun!” And then, he rereads the part that says: This year, your secret friend is: Shane, and everything comes to a screeching halt.
He looks down at his cat, who is calmly cleaning his paw. “Goldsworth, I think I might be in some deep shit.”
Or, Ryan, humble farmer, gets assigned the local hot doctor for the Winter Star gift exchange, and it goes about as well as you'd expect (poorly)

Summary
“Have you ever heard the Traveling Romeo?”
“I– I can’t rightly say that I have,” Ryan shakes his head.
“Lord, can that man croon. He sings about all sorts of tragic love; your beloved, your beaten, your betrayed. All the good kinds. He ensnares all who dare listen.”
“Oh,” Annie puts her spoon back in her bowl. “He’s visited the crossroads, has he?”
“There’s– he’s done what?” Ryan tips his chair back upright in surprise. “He’s sold his soul?”
“Have you seen him play?”
“That I have,” Andrew nods. “He plays a six-string unlike any manner of man or beast.”

“Sometimes two people meet each other, click, and it’s all or nothing. Other people need time, years and years of will-they-won't-they before the spark becomes a fire. It was all or nothing with her. And I don't have years. I'm only here for the summer," Ryan tells him.
“Some people are worth a summer,” Shane says wistfully.
“Some people are worth a summer,” Ryan repeats. “Ever met someone worth a summer?”
Shane takes a long, hard look at Ryan’s face, watching him intently. “Not yet.”

Summary
“Then let’s say it reminds me that I am a man. Will that satisfy you?”
Ryan regarded Shane with an implacable eye. Shane, for his part, withstood this with his usual easy amiability.
Ryan found himself unable to suppress a smile from his face. “What riddles you present me with! It seems impossible for me to ever forget that I am a man.”
