Inklings never have to worry about death -- of being permanently splatted one day and leaving their partner behind to mourn for them. But what happens when Agent Three is Sanitized and is suddenly unable to respawn? What happens to his boyfriend, Agent Four, if someone sneaks up behind Three, lines up his head in the crosshairs of a Charger...and fires? There's only one path forward for him and his boyfriend that Three can see -- and it's painful. Cods, it is painful. It's up to Agent Four to prove to Three that he couldn't imagine sharing his world with anyone else even when Three thinks Four deserves someone infinitely better, and he'll be damned if he's letting Three go without a fight. (Nim = Agent Three; Ryle = Agent Four. Ryle is 18, Nim is 20.) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Cross-posted on AO3 under the same name. Please ignore the distinct lack of Agent 4 in the cover you wouldn't BELIEVE how hard it is to find a picture of Sanitized Agent 3 hugging or even just in the general vicinity of Agent 4 Cover is from mameo_ut on Twitter. Art is NOT MINE and I take credit for none of it. If you're the owner of the wonderful artwork and you'd like me to remove it, let me know.
