Summary
“You… like it?” Irving asks, vulnerable, pitched halfway between a statement and a question.
And Burt thought he was a stranger.
“Of course, I like it,” Burt replies, automatic, honest. “I love it, it’s— It’s me!”
This time, there’s a touch of a laugh in Irving’s voice when he repeats, “Yes, it— it is. I suppose it is.”
or: in another life, burt, a newly-retired former curator, finally talks to irving, the artist he's noticed in his art museum (and crushed on) for years.

Summary
"You okay, mate?"
"Hm? Oh, yes, I'm quite all right. Izzy just blew his load."
Ed makes the mistake of taking a swig just as Stede answers, and promptly inhales a mouthful of wine. As he coughs, Stede tsks sympathetically and gives his back a few thumps. When Ed can breathe again, he manages a strangled "Sorry? Izzy did what?"
"Blew his load,” Stede replies, matter-of-factly.
