    Summary

    CuteGuy looked around Scar's apartment, smiling affectionately.
    He caught himself, realizing that his heart was in his eyes. It was a little embarrassing to be so unabashedly fond in front of HotGuy.
    Speaking of whom… the hero seemed to be breathing heavily. Maybe he’d pushed himself too hard to get here quickly.
    “Here, sit down for a minute. You look winded,” CuteGuy said, pointing him to the couch. “Let me get you something to drink.” He went straight for the cupboard to the right of the stove, where Scar kept the glasses.
    HotGuy sat down heavily, making a rasping noise in the back of his throat.
    Better hurry with that water, Grian thought.

    Or: Mumbo is out of town, Grian's apartment is being remodeled, and CuteGuy needs a safe place to preen his wings. Suddenly, HotGuy finds himself somewhere much too familiar.

    Summary

    “So, can I finally know the reason for this impromptu marathon?”

    There’s nervous anticipation buzzing inside him now, and Grian has to swallow before he speaks, mouth dry all of a sudden.

    “Feed on me,” he says, and everything gets very quiet. His throat clicks as he opens his mouth again, but he finds he has nothing else to say, so he just sits back, arms braced on the bed, and looks at Scar.

    Scar blinks at him.

    “Sorry?” Scar sounds so baffled that Grian can’t help laughing. “Grian, you’re not—”

    “Now I know you’re not about to tell me what I can and can’t do, Mr. Goodtimes,” Grian says. “And if you’re about to rattle off some bullshit about me getting hurt, we both know I can beat you in a fair fight, don’t we?”

    Scar’s eyes glint in the dark.

    “Come on,” Grian coaxes. His wings spread out behind him without his saying, and he can feel himself flush, embarrassed. Not that Scar seems to notice the blatant presentation, but still. “I wanna help you out. You’ll have a more clear mind, and then we can find a solution together, hm?”

    Scar hesitates, arms crossed, but his resolve is clearly thinning. Grian smiles, wicked.

    “You always get your way, don’t you,” Scar mutters.

    Summary

    Scar laughs, warm and genuine. “What shall I swear by?”

    Grian frowns. He considers their joined hands, before smiling and letting them go. “Do not swear. Although I joy in thee, I have no joy of this contract tonight. It—“

    Scar starts to speak, taking a step forward, but Grian takes a step back, planting his hands on Scar’s shoulders. “It is too rash!” he insists. ”Too unadvised, too sudden. Too like the lightning, which doth cease to be ere one can say, ‘it lightens’.”

    Scar says nothing — he has no written line here. But he takes Grian’s hand in his. He holds it, gently, as if it’s something fragile. Grian’s completely blindsided as he feels a pang in his chest. Oh, Scar.

    He places his other hand over Scar’s, squeezing it reassuringly. His voice is soft as he finishes his line. “Sweet, good night…”

    Aah. This is the part of the scene where Scar and Pearl would’ve. You know.

    He sees Scar give an imperceptible nod, eyes locked with his.

    Grian is cast as Juliet and Scar is cast as Romeo as they rehearse the balcony scene oh no I wonder what could possibly happen

    Summary

    Scar winked at Grian.
    Grian felt his heart stop for a moment. But that was exactly Scar’s style - silver-tongued and flirtatious, even with his most platonic of friends.
    So he laughed it off, punching Scar lightly in the shoulder. “Like I’m gonna find someone who wants to practice kissing with me.”
    “Aww, don’t get down on yourself, G,” Scar said, ruffling Grian’s hair playfully. “It’s not a hard sell.”
    Grian raised an eyebrow skeptically. “Yeah? Would you do it?”

    Or: Grian is self-conscious about his lack of experience. Scar offers to help him out.
