    Summary

    “Maybe now,” Trevor caresses his face, tucking a strand of hair lovingly behind his ear. “But one day I’ll be gone. And you’ll move on.”

    “I won’t,” Alucard hisses, his eyes swimming with the threat of tears. “I’ll carry you with me forever. Forever, Belmont. Do you understand? That’s what being immortal is. I’ll go on living but I’ll miss you every day. I’ll yearn for your warmth every cold winter morning, I’ll smell you in the smoke and dirt. And if I take a new lover, their hands will be both yours and theirs until they’re gone too, and it’s just a circle. An endless, hopeless circle.”

    -

    Alucard's borrowing grief from the future. It's getting in the way of things.

    Summary

    More passively, more abstractly, he thinks: this is what’s going to happen for the rest of time. They’re never going to get anywhere. He’s going to say the wrong thing at some point each and every time, and Jonathan’s never going to chew him out for it. He’s going to step out of the car and breathe in, breathe out his way through it and when has that solved anything?

    OR

    Will and Jonathan say some things they mean, some things they don't, and try to do better for each other.

    Summary

    They lock themselves into a competition of sorts, seeing how far they can throw a rock into the air. It’s a stupid game to play, on the cusp of adulthood. Steve wonders if there are any fish in the lake. What are they thinking right now, as rocks rain down onto them?
    Steve voices this concern.
    Jonathan pauses with his arm behind his head, preparing for another throw. He looks at Steve and chuckles. “They’re just fish, Steve. I don’t think they’re thinking anything.” He throws the rock. It goes further than any of the others.
