Fics like sadness as a gift

Good riddance, he thinks. Or maybe feels obligated to think. He’s not sure. It feels like a natural thing to think about a brother who hit you and insulted you and extorted you for most of your short, miserable time together. He’s thought about it before, Alexei dying. The life he lived had not been conductive to longevity. I am the last Rozanov, he thinks, and that is an emotion he can parse, finally: closure. Like setting the last piece down in a puzzle. It’s only after the first puff of smoke escapes his lips that Ilya remembers Alexei’s daughter. Or: Two years after he gets married, Ilya Rozanov receives the news that his older brother has died.
