Fics like Second Time's the Charm

If he didn't look, he didn't have to know. If he didn't look, it wasn't real. What a stupid thought. What a childish thought - one that belonged to Hadrian, not Royce, who could never have afforded the luxury of such beliefs. A bad thing didn't cease to be real because you refused to acknowledge it; you were only making it easier for it to destroy you. It was Hadrian who refused to face up to the cruel realities of the world, not Royce. If Hadrian was dead, Royce's ignorance wouldn't change that. Nothing would. And yet there he was, hanging from a rock ledge, and he didn't want to look. Hadrian falls. Royce... copes. (Missing scene from Drumindor.)
