Extraordinary collection of objects form a compatible group around the fireplace. The oil painting over the mantelpiece is of a drowned seaweed-spattered girl and her dog; the two chairs are part of an extravagantly carved collection of furniture. The portrait behind the vase is of her son, Alexander.

a stephen/thomas fic i could not get out of my head...

“What are you?” Stephen asks. “Man, cat, or demon?”

A sea of curls pushes deeper into Gardiner’s abdomen, arms tighten around his waist and pull him close. Knelt down before the priest, as if ready to receive a blessing, Thomas catches a glimpse of the matured Black cat down the corridor of the small, basement-like chapel. It stares at them, ember eyes twinkling in awe and perhaps, judgment. Thomas wonders if the feline is confused like the rest upstairs. Perhaps it means to ask, ‘Why are you, Thomas Cromwell, knelt before the man who sent you to the scaffold, pushing your head into his stomach as he cradles your skull? Why do you look up at him with a plea and eagerness in your eyes?’

Why did you just not let Wriothesley, in his fit of rage and fury, kill him? Why did you take him and give him shelter, when he did not deserve it? Why did you fall in love with him?

“I am Marlinspike…” Thomas whispers into Stephen’s cloth, and shudders as the elder man’s pale fingers run through his hair. The cat pauses at being named, then, scurries away. 

“Demon it is.” Stephen mutters. “I thought you wanted my blessing.”

“You offered it. So I knelt.” Thomas responds, eyes closed. 

“And so you tempt me, Marlinspike?” 

“And so I tempt you.” Thomas responds.

Stephen’s hand pauses momentarily, and Thomas gazes up in worry again. In return, Stephen simply smiles at him; a smile that says so much. For one, it tells Thomas that he does not think this can last, whatever this is. Stephen has been seduced by a heretic, he would later say, and had no choice in the matter. Regardless, never in a million years, did he think to pray in the home of the man he swore to hate with the whole of his being. Never did he think to fall in love with Thomas Cromwell. 

Then he feels the beatings on his back from the men let into his room that night, and the red sting upon his throat where the traitor, Wriothesley hands clasped upon his neck. He was after all, the one who let the men in that room for retribution. The one who sought to torture and humiliate him.

Gardiner remembers why is here. It is here or death.

It can’t last, but he wants it to, and perhaps it will. So he continues to rub his demon, his cat, his Marlinspike.

“Your temptations are working, you heretic.” He whispers. 

“Haven’t they always?”
