    Summary

    Thomas’ eyes blink open, then fall on Vincent.

    “Vincent,” he murmurs blearily, voice hoarse. Then, he seems to register he's in his own apartment, outside of the Vatican. He rockets onto his elbows. “Vincent! What—”

    Vincent holds up the apartment key. “I let myself in. I hope you don't mind.”

    “Of course not! But—how did you get here?”

    “I walked.”

    “Through Rome?”

    “Well, I didn't walk through Venice.”

    ____

    Thomas and Vincent test the limits of their self-control. (It’s rapidly dwindling, given they have the keys to each other’s apartments.)

    Summary

    As he listened, Vincent began to notice small details that made his skin prickle, the familiarity in their voices, the casual tone, the laughter between comments, the inside jokes.

    Juliette had chosen to sit next to Thomas, forcing Vincent to take the single armchair across from them. Every so often, she touched Thomas’s shoulder or brushed his arm as if it were the most natural thing in the world, and Thomas didn’t seem uncomfortable. He smiled. He leaned into it.

    Vincent swallowed the jealousy rising in his throat, fists clenched over his knees, trying to preserve the calm he wore like a second skin. He was the Pope, he wasn’t supposed to feel this way. But as soft laughter filled the room, he wondered how much longer he could endure hearing someone speak to Thomas with such warmth, such intimacy, without breaking.

    Or: Vincent has to endure people flirting with his man and survive the ordeal.

    Summary

    The kid is in his twenties, which is a relief, at least. Not technically a kid at all. He’d been expecting much worse. After all, the words that O’Malley had used danced neatly around the idea of a scandal. If it were any other cardinal, this wouldn’t be much of a scandal in the first place—so long as it didn’t get out, of course. But it’s just so… absurd.

     

    or: A young man comes to Rome confessing to an affair with a cardinal. As Secretary of State, Aldo's on clean-up duty.
