Summary
You idiot, she had said. Don't you know anything? He doesn't. He keeps looking out the window, even though there's nothing to see, because he can't look at her. He stays silent, letting the quiet envelop him, because he can't talk to her. The emptiness settles inside and he allows himself to feel the weight of it. He deserves that emptiness. He doesn't deserve her.
***
This starts as an alternate ending of S6E8, in which Astrid does not die. And, of course, Quinn doesn't die either. This will be a Quinn/Astrid story with an eventual happy ending. If you’re reading, thank you!

Summary
Very self-indulgent because I've been using Homeland to process my feelings about my own bipolar disorder but I wanted to explore the transitions and what I've really struggled with. The show does a good job of portraying "pure" mania or depression but it's often more complicated than that. TW for self-harm, depression, and mania. No specific time frame but pre season 4.

Summary
Maverick is standing in front of the TV, remote in hand, studying the banner announcing Saul 'the Bear' Berenson's– up until a few hours ago DNI in office– untimely death. Mitchell is hopping up and down by his side, asking, "Can we see this, uncle Mav? Can we see this one?", excited about his choice of movie. Maverick turns to Meredith, like he's asking if that's the reason for the unexpected call or perhaps how she's handling it or what happens from now on– most likely any of those things that she's willing to offer, if she's willing to offer anything at all.
"Yes," she says, "I've heard about it." She's thrown off, Maverick can spot it.
oOo
After news of the Queen's death broke late on Thursday 8th, I felt strongly compelled to go watch a similar-themed scene from Top Gun: Maverick. This fic (hopefully) ties in with another fic I'm working on.
The MCD warning applies to the character of Saul Berenson, who dies off-screen at the beginning of this fic. The rest of the fic deals with the aftermath of his death. If that is upsetting to you in any way, feel free to skip this fic.

Summary
“I wanted to get on top of you,” she says, wiping her mouth on the back of her hand, “but we would have ripped your stitches. Figured this was a better idea.”
“It was a fucking /great/ idea,” he says, still a little breathless. She joins him, pleased with herself. She’s laying on her back as well, the two of them staring at the ceiling. He sighs, spent.
“How did we go for so long without giving in to this?” she asks him.
“I drank. A lot.”
“Yeah, I did too.”
“I was so angry,” he adds, quieter now. “Misplaced energy.”
“I know what you mean,” she agrees. In hindsight she can see how a lot of their bickering was just that, repressed sexual tension.
“Half the place already thought we were fucking when I was working for you in Islamabad. Should have just gone ahead with it.”
“They did?”
“Sure,” he nods. “Though most of them had the good sense not to say anything directly to me, so I didn’t have to fight anybody.”
