    What if Kevin & Neil happened first?

    "You've never been attracted to anyone on the team before, but Neil and Kevin are different, aren't they?" Renee asked, voice serene like she wasn't tearing Andrew apart with those few words.

    Summary

    “Do you like it?"

    The simplest question to everything. A yes or no, asked over and over. Do you like Exy? Do you like yourself? Do you like the language that you should have learned in school in a country you were ripped from? Neil and Andrew, last December, bent over him on the couch asking him do you like us?

    Kevin hums, a rising note of both confirmation and avoidance, different to how it was as a kid with that tilted accent.

    alternatively; Kevin Day’s horrible no-good very bad attempt at learning Gaeilge in the fucking USA.

    Summary

    It took them entire weeks to coax intelligible words out of Nona beyond “no,” and “yes,” and “don’t want” (those ones have been making regular appearances at the kitchen table since nearly day one), and close-enough approximations of each of their own names—but as soon as they did make it beyond those basics, the first place they ended up was, “I love you.” Nona says “I love you” more than anything else by orders of magnitude, more even than “don’t want” at the kitchen table, and she reaches out to touch each of them with the thoughtlessness of breathing, and none of them are ever really sure what to do with all of it.

    Camilla, Palamedes, and Pyrrha have, between the three of them: two bodies, one shitty apartment on a dangerous planet, the unwelcomely close attention of a mostly-unfriendly militia on every sudden move they make, a teenaged infant they don’t understand to feed and care for, minimal collective experience with domestic life, and not enough time to learn how to manage it all. They make a fair go of things anyway.
