Fics like Seek the state of grace returned

Aldo Bellini got everything he wanted - the traditionalists defeated, a liberal other than himself on the papal throne, his job back, and Thomas Lawrence staying in the Vatican. So why do all his wins taste so much like losses anyway? Goffredo Tedesco is grieving - his brother, his papal ambitions, the certainty of his convictions, and his foolish hopes for love. So why does their unexpected pontiff of all people make him want to embrace this daunting new era anyway? The tides of change are sweeping through the church and their lives, and there’s no choice but to sink or swim.
