[Julian keeps his hand flattened between Guy's wings, trying to keep the touch going. Maybe it'll bring him back to reality eventually, or perhaps just being here is only making things worse.
He walks quietly with his old friend, trying not to read too much into the poem he spouts, but oddly discomforted by it. They had been close in school, but they hadn't corresponded too often after Cambridge. Like with Anthony, it had been a gradual fading as they replaced their school friends with new ones, never forgetting each other but never being in the same country long enough to meet up. Not till recently, of course, and that...did not go well.
Why does Guy have to be so dramatic about it, though?]
