Zunon and Dreivae are two people I know from a gathering where the five or six of us who orbit each other in this city had come together, as we do, to sit in each other's company. Zunon is a woman who makes silence feel inhabited rather than empty. Dreivae is a man who carries his wanting closer to the surface than most people dare. I watched something pass between them that evening, and then watched them leave without naming what might be made of it.
