    Summary

    Cale is still sleeping and Nate starts to think about free agency. He’s not supposed to be thinking about that - he’s supposed to be focused on relaxing on his day off. He can’t help but wonder who the Avs have signed. Will he like his new teammates? Will they be good enough to fill the spots that are quickly being emptied by people leaving?

    He reaches to the nightstand and grabs his phone, careful not to disturb Cale. Nate scrolls quickly through his notifications, focusing in on any relating to the Avs.

    Oh.

    Well.

    That’s going to be interesting.

    Summary

    "I can’t believe we haven’t really talked since that night all those years ago,” Menelaus tells Patroclus. He laughs after it, a little unnaturally, following up with, “That was so crazy, right? Can you believe I haven’t kissed another guy since you?”

    Achilles grins ferociously. “Can you, Pat?” he asks. “Can you believe that?”

    Ten years after college, Patroclus and Achilles run into Menelaus, freshly dumped by Helen. They have some interesting suggestions for helping him get over his heartbreak.

    Summary

    An odd coolness in the air told Patroclus that they were finally unwatched. Achilles continued. “If you want to you can. You know I am not the jealous type.”

    And Patroclus laughed. “You absolutely are,” he said, “but the sex is so good when you are a bit jealous.”

    Patroclus spends a long, strange evening going over some loot from a prisoner exchange with some kings. Achilles gets jealous.

    Summary

    "Later, we lay on the riverbank, learning the lines of each other's bodies anew. This, and this and this. We were like gods at the dawning of the world, and our joy was so bright we could see nothing else but the other."

    Song of Achilles, Madeline Miller
