summary; not everyone says ‘I love you’ as quick as the next person
It’s somewhere between the fourth and eight month that Alex starts saying it (‘I love you’). He doesn’t make it a big deal (there are no flowers leading up to the bed and no candles to light up the apartment; nothing obviously romantic), he just lets it slip out with bright eyes and an even brighter smile and so much love in his touches that Ross can’t help but believe him.
(He doesn’t say it back).

summary; grief is merely a process to allow us to let go of the things that were and be ready for the things that are to come. (or: ross learns to let go and move on but not to forget).
Grief has five stages (denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance).

summary; ross is a roman general who comes across the fallen greek alexandros on the battle field. not killing him is the first thing he does to surprise alexandros, but it’s not the last.
The clouds above him are gathering.
Alexandros looks up, watches them spell out a fate which they (he) cannot escape and fears for his life. His fingers tremble and he grips the dagger in his hand tighter to steady them. The steel digs into the flesh of his palm and he feels trickles of blood sliding down his wrist.
The gods have forsaken them and without them Alexandros thinks (knows) they might not survive.
Alexandros raises his bloody hand and salutes the sky.

The first time Ross meets Alex, he’s all sharp teeth and wide grins. He holds a baseball bat in one hand and a ball in the other; he looks like he’s going to war.

Ross thinks somewhere some kind of entity is laughing at his situation. Somewhere (somehow) a god is peering down from a mountain and ruining his life (turning it to ash by lighting it on fire with wrongly placed desires and poor choices). Somewhere a god is turning his despair (his confusion, his anger, his love) into toxic gas and filtering it out into the air (gods don’t need to breath).

It is like the transition between a world filled with only black, white and grey (somber, lonely, lost) to a world full of neon colors (alive, breathing, real) is halted somewhere in the middle. Ross feels better, more complete than before, even if he’s solely running on adrenaline. He can feel the change in his bones, but the world around him is a weird mix of flat colors and the occasional blotch of grey.
