Summary
There was a time for courage and there was a time for quiet and there was a time for saying things.
Larry was on the mini-couch, curled sideways a little, his feet on the floor to accommodate Sal’s head on his hip. The smaller boy had come out of his final class of the day at school and looked exhausted. Larry had guided him home and immediately took him downstairs to lay on the couch.
The music was playing as it always was when they were in his room.
He could feel Sal’s fingers curled tightly in the fabric of his pants, where they were a little looser at the knee. What was worse was that he could still feel Sal shaking, his entire body trembling as he continued to deal with the bad alone. Whatever was going on in his head, it was obviously hurting him still, had been since before they’d made it home.

Summary
“I've never seen anybody dressed like you around here, big brother – your hat is so cool!”, exclaimed the child. “It must be real nice to stay in the shade when you're out in the desert.”
Looking flattered, the Wanderer chuckled. “Thank you. You're right, it is convenient in the sun – and it also protects me in the rain, so much so that some people” - he smirked at Aether - “are jealous and would like to use it as an umbrella.”

The Wanderer is only nice to a very select few categories of beings. The Traveler is not usually among them.
Or: Three times Aether sees the Wanderer being softer than he normally lets on.- Language:

Summary
Aether's relationship with Scaramouche was... interesting, per se. It was like his relationship with Childe; competitive and driven, a hate derived from the sides of war they've picked but no genuine hatred on a personal level. A friendship built from rivalry, one death threat after another... the only kind of relationship that Aether could have with anyone involved with the Fatui.
(or, aether gets sick and sees a new side of scaramouche, who decides to nurse him back to health)
