    Summary

    Mayer Jacobs has always been a hard worker. What happens when his son inherits the same trait?

    This story is inspired by the song ‘Cat’s in the Cradle’ by Henry Chapin, I’d recommend listening to the before and/or after you read this if you haven’t heard it before.

    Summary

    Sarah’s first thought upon entering the room is only for the way Katherine’s loosened hair spreads across Sarah’s pillow in an array of red and auburn.

    Her second thought is that Katherine is lying in Sarah’s bed.

    She knew that was going to happen. She was the one who suggested it. It’s just that no amount of knowing and anticipating could’ve prepared her for the sight of Katherine wrapped in the same blanket that Sarah has been sleeping underneath for years. Nothing could have prepared her for Katherine, sick in her bed, eyes drooping with sleepiness.

    When Katherine falls sick, Sarah takes it upon herself to look after her.

    Summary

    Davey had known he was in love with Jack since the night printing pamphlets in the basement of The World, since Jack’s playful punch to his shoulder and grinning “shuddup”

    Davey had realized he was too late about a minute later, when Jack held Katherine’s hand, when he crossed his fingers and said “for us too, yeah?”

    Or, Davey being sad and gay about Jack after they print the Children's Crusade papers

    Summary

    “I think that went good,” he smiled to Davey.

    “Yeah, it did,” he replied shortly. It was fucked up. Les deserved an apology, obviously. What about everyone else? No one else got an apology for any of it?

    Maybe it was just him. Maybe Jack just wasn’t apologizing to David.

    He fucking hated New York.

    Summary

    Halloween was always the same for David. He liked that. There were a lot of parts of his life that were inconsistent, but he could always rely on a few things to stay exactly the same every once in a while, and it almost felt like a saving grace. One moment of things he could expect in a lifetime of things he couldn't. It was nice to know the world's next step every now and again. Every year was the same.

    That is, until it was different.

    Summary

    David stepped over and slid the window open, his smile only growing wider as he saw that Jack was just as happy to see him.

    "Hey," he greeted briefly, observing as Jack leaned against the windowsill, slightly poking his head inside. The chilly air that entered the room along with Jack's presence awakened David's senses a little.

    "Mornin', Dave," Jack answered, a playful twinkle in his warm eyes. "How'd you sleep?"

    -

    or, Jack pays David a visit before David goes to school in the morning.
