I said the series was complete...but now I guess it's even more complete? (Inspiration struck for a coda!)
WILL WONDERS EVER CEASE
Fandom: Call Me By Your Name
Summary: Elio moves to New York. (Glimpses of their new life together, set across the course of one year.)
Characters: Oliver, Elio, OC
Words: 3,700
Notes:
A New York coda to the series “He Thinks of Elio.” Thank you to Tessiebear81, whose comment got me thinking about this! It will probably make the most sense if you’ve read the rest of the series (or at least part 3, “Wasted My Life Playing Dumb”). But you could also get by if you just know the following:
When Oliver returned to New York after his summer with the Perlmans, trying to figure out what to do now that Elio had upended his life, he made friends with his elderly (and awesome) neighbor Esther. Her wisdom and perspective gave him just enough of a nudge towards making a different decision than in canon: daring to try to make things work with Elio despite his fears, and visiting him that winter for Hanukkah. Now a month or so has passed since that wintertime visit in Italy, and it’s the beginning of 1984.
Just to keep with the theme of the series, the title is of course from Sufjan Stevens, from “Mystery of Love.”
(This is a set of vignettes over the course of a year, each taking place on a different Jewish holiday – though as you’ll see, some relate more directly to the holiday in question than others.)
Previously in this series:
Sweetly, Before the Mystery Ends
Be My Rest, Be My Fantasy
Wasted My Life Playing Dumb
Sea Lion Caves in the Dark
