    Summary

    'Every lover is a soldier. Love is a warfare.'

    I've changed this description a thousand times. None of them felt honest. I just wanted to read a story of broken people finding each other and dancing to good music in the middle of nowhere. I also wanted to figure out how to write about consuming love. The beginning isn't great, it slowly gets better. It's dramatic, extreme, a very unrealistic love story. But it is a love story. And there are a few lines that make me smile.

    (If you're back for a reread, might I interest you in a new story: If I Had a Boat - 2024)

    Summary

    Four short Elmax moments which take place after the finale of S4 (no major spoilers).

    ----

    After a moment, El rears her head back, uncertain. “I’m sorry.”

    “Don’t be,” Max breathes, and she isn’t sure if it’s the winter chill, the late hour, or El’s proximity that gives her the courage to say: “You can…do it again. If you want.”

    There’s a moment of utter silence during which Max begins to ponder the absolute depth of her own stupidity, but then—lips fall to her cheek. El lingers, breathing out against Max’s skin.

    Do friends do this?
