Summary
Nicky sets the clock on his bench, and murmurs soft explanations to it about the repairs. It’s a never-ending wonder to him to consider the love stored in wood and plaster, oil paint and clay, lodged in the curlicues of fine metalwork and the too-deep residue of furniture polish. He gently removes the shards of broken glass from the frame, unscrews the clock face and walks it over to Nile’s bench, and spends a time simply touching each wonderful detail of the casing as if to reassure the wood of his good intentions.
“I’m almost jealous,” Joe says softly, and Nicky looks up to see him standing on the other side of the bench, the shoulders of his jacket splattered with raindrops. He’s smiling fondly, hands stuffed in the pockets of his jeans.

Summary
He’s two weeks into his search when he sees the advertisement, small and unassuming, tucked away in the back of the local newspaper. “Andromache Restoration seeks furniture restoration specialist,” it says, and provides a mailing address to which applicants can send a portfolio. Nicky pauses, coffee cup halfway to his mouth, more than a little stunned by the opportunity. He knows of Andromache Restoration—knows the artists there from the work they’ve done across London, the paintings cleaned and repaired, the ceramics restored from broken pieces, the metalwork reforged.

Summary
They found a place to stay that night by accident—a hut in the depths of the forest, uninhabited but well kept. A hunter’s lodge, Nicolò supposed as he forced open the door, something meant for seasons other than the depth of winter. Nevertheless, there was a hearth and a chimney, a rude bed made for one, and enough firewood and kindling stacked against the wall to give them warmth and light that evening. He sent up silent thanks for such gifts.

Summary
It’s like when his sister got a new cat—she’d had to introduce it to her home slowly, giving it plenty of space, letting it hide under the couch and occasionally hiss. It didn’t take long before it warmed up to her.
Joe knows it will be the same with Nicky. He just needs to be patient.

Summary
“Do not let me,” Nicky’d said beforehand, eyes already pupil-dark and breath coming a bit quicker, but with the same no-nonsense tone he usually reserved for serious occasions. God, how Joe loved him. “Even if I ask you really nicely, yes?”
“No?” Joe had said, pretending to need further instruction. “What if you say please?”

Summary
“By the way,” Andy says suddenly. “Copley said he talked to you last week? What was that about? Anything important?”
There’s no malice to it, she’s not trying to trip him up or anything – isn’t even looking at him, too busy stabbing at her food. It’s Nicky’s own damn fault, really, because he’s not prepared at all; no excuse ready to cover up, no statement that might defuse the situation immediately, take the edge off, so to speak.
In which some people are having an argument. They're not used to it.
(This is a loose sequel to "Everything in moderation (even moderation)" but it's pretty self-explanatory.)Series
