Summary
People were like houses.
Penny had discovered this at a young age, and then again when he came into his psychic abilities. Some people had cute little houses with tidy lawns and white picket fences and a duck mailbox. Some had scraggly lawns and garages that were crammed full of broken power tools. He learned that some people went through their lives with their doors unlocked, and someone like him could slip right in, and walk around, look in all the drawers and under all the beds and figure them out, simple and quick. There were people who kept themselves locked up tight, with doors and windows barred. Then there were the rare types that would allow someone into the front room, the place for receiving quests that had no real purpose other than providing an image. But the rest of the house was in shambles, and he was not allowed to peek into any of those rooms.

Summary
The thing is: Sex is a good way to pass the time. Sex is good, in a pure, base, animal way. It’s a thing his body wants, another body warmclosewettight around him. Eliot had missed sex, in the year before Quentin kissed him on the mosaic. He’s missed solid masculine bodies for longer than that. It should be something simple, a biological function. But it’s not.
It’s not because Q spread out and open for him is the most beautiful thing Eliot’s ever seen.
Sex and love in the mosaic timeline.

Summary
"When I get away from skating, two L words come to mind, Life and Love. I've been neglecting both for over twenty years." - Victor Nikiforov
Victor makes friends with depression before he knows its name, grows up with the ghost of it in his bones, gets acclimated to the chill. He's a changeling's child, a chameleon; he makes himself into all the things people want. He's acclimated to his winter life, cold and stark and glittering success.
He has everything a person could possibly want. There's no reason for discontent.
That is, there's no reason for disconent until Katsuki Yuuri tumbles into his arms in Sochi. Suddenly the lies Victor has told himself about his own happiness for years are pouring through his fingers like sand and the things he doesn't have at all are thrown in stark relief: he has a career and no life; he has a passion and no love.
Or: a retelling of those twenty years of neglect, that one night in Sochi, and why the season that gave both of those things back to Victor Nikiforov was the one he spent being Katsuki Yuuri's coach.
