Summary
“Seriously, what’s with all this, El?” Margo asks, daintily eating a seven-layer bar with a fork. “Why the fuck have you gone all domestic goddess on me? Did you decide you’re gonna be a magical dentist when you graduate and you want to guarantee yourself a steady stream of patients?”
“Does there have to be an ulterior motive?” Eliot sets the pan of bars on the table with a little stack of plates and pile of forks. “Can’t I just enjoy taking care of my friends?”

Summary
In the low, silvery light of the moon, Eliot can see Quentin, clearly still asleep, the sheet kicked away from his body. Usually, he sleeps with an undershirt on, but tonight, he’d stripped down to just his boxers—his nipples are crinkled, his mouth open, his cock hard and straining against the fabric of his gray boxer briefs. The little moans falling from his lips are soft and breathy, and his hips are bucking up from the bed, like he’s trying to find something to push against.
Holy fucking gay Jesus—what the fuck—Eliot is going to lose his actual goddamn mind.
Eliot’s watching Quentin Coldwater have an actual sex dream. Here, in his bed, next to him, hair splayed out behind him on his Fillory and Further pillowcase.

Summary
“Minor mendings-- it’s not intended to work on living things,” she’s saying. “There can be-- side effects--”
“-- thinks I’m dead, Alice. What the hell kind of side effect--”
“--what you told me? When I asked what it feels like for you, when you cast it? You said you felt like you helped it wake up and remember--”
“--and remember what it was-- oh, Jesus--”
A spell gone awry gives a grieving Eliot an unknowing glimpse of his (and Quentin's) future.
Now, with epilogue.

Summary
“If you’d like to review the full terms and conditions of your deal, you can have as much time as you need to read--”
Eliot shook his head, still not quite used to the way his hair curled below his chin, now, since he hadn’t been around to keep it properly groomed for the last-- however long it had been. God, he hadn’t even bothered to ask.
“You get my deep, dark, never-told secret, and I get the opportunity to try and Orpheus-and-Eurydice Q the fuck out of this place,” he said, cutting through Penny’s bureaucratic power-trip. “I got it the first twelve times.”
“I would strongly advise--”
“I’m ready.”
The corners of Penny’s mouth went up, but it would have been a stretch to call the expression a smile. “No, you’re really not."
The Monster's been defeated, Quentin is dead, and Eliot has a quest of his own--if he can trust himself to complete it. An Orpheus and Eurydice remix.

Summary
In December, Eliot Waugh goes through a terrible break-up and denounces the entire concept of love. In January, Quentin Coldwater finds out his dad is sick, and becomes determined to help out with money. In February, Josh Hoberman asks Margo Hanson out on a date, and she says no. But she doesn't just say no. She says no because she's worried about her best friend: she's not going to date anyone until Eliot starts dating again, too.
To Josh, the solution seems clear. Pay Quentin, who seems to be the only other person Eliot can stand to be around for more than a single night, to ask him out.
Of course, he's not taken Quentin's Quentinness into proper account. Instead of lying to Eliot, Quentin tells him everything right away, and the two of them embark on a scheme together to convince both Margo and Josh at the same time. Just a couple of friends, pretending to be madly in love. No way this could possibly get out of control. Right?
