“Well, somebody’s in love.”

Gabriel frowns at the bartender’s words and glances around the establishment. Sure he can feel some love radiating from certain patrons, but nothing that particularly jumps out at him and certainly nothing which would lead an ordinary human to take notice. Typically, the statement wouldn’t give him any sort of pause, but something about tonight…

He can feel the matchbox secure where he’d put it, in his breast pocket. Every now and again its new tenant buzzes about, the vibrations against his chest feeling something like a heartbeat. (He is admittedly not entirely certain what a heartbeat is supposed to feel like, but he figures he’s probably right. He usually is, after all.)

Maybe that’s what leads him to ask, “You think so?”

I’m going to be hopelessly predictable and do characters from The Old Guard whoops 

The fire burns gently before them, the embers illuminating their faces in soft light, creating a comfortable atmosphere. Quynh pokes at the embers with the tip of her arrow, boredom clear through her features. They were waiting to ambush a small group of troops from an invading country and they had been delayed by some unknown force. The only thing left to do was wait. 

Quynh, despite her millennia of living, was terrible at waiting. 

She looks over at her two companions, watching as Yusuf shifts so he can lay his head against Nicolo’s shoulder, mirroring her and Andromoche’s own position. 

"Tell me when you two first kissed,” Quynh asks, interrupting the silence between them. Andromache sits up then, her curiosity peaked.

Nicolo looks away, his blush visible even in the low lights of the embers and Yusuf laughs loudly, his whole body shaking in mirth. 

“Nicolo broke my nose,” Yusuf smiles fondly, pulling Nicolo close and kissing his cheek briefly. “It was his first, poor thing.” 

“Only the broken nose part of that is true,” Nicolo confesses quietly and hides his head in Yusuf’s shoulder as the others laugh.
