Summary
“Jack-” David started, his earlier resolve crumbling quickly in the midst of all that silence and the way Jack’s breaths puffed out steadily beside him. He felt so small, minuscule, that he felt like were he to confess anything in that moment, it would cause no wide disruptions, no consequences, just a simple statement of fact, as gentle as an autumn leaf falling from a tree.
Spoilers:
Davey's in a coma where he repeats the same day. It's both a frustrating time loop that he doesn't know how to break out of and also a nearly perfect fantasy world his subconscious came up with. Being in love with Jack in both reality and his dreams doesn't help either.

When Frank Sullivan is released from prison, he expects his son to fall in line and join the family "business." But when Frank discovers that Jack's loyalties lie elsewhere, it ignites a chain of events that will challenge both Jack and David in ways they never imagined. A canon-era retelling of Cupid & Psyche with organized crime, excessive pining, and more obstacles than you can shake a stick at.

Summary
"Who's fantastic idea was it to do this?" He grumbled, snatching the blanket held out to him and throwing it vaguely in the direction of the ground. There was no way in hell he was smoothing it out, someone else could do it.
"Yours. 'Dave, we should do somethin' fun for Les and Charlie and I 'ave the perfect idea'." David said in a bad approximation to Jack's accent.
Crutchie yawned, whacking Jack with his crutch, "It's a good idea, but why so late?"
Les giggled and nudged Crutchie, "Wuss."

Summary
Maybe he can get it covered up.
Most tattoo shops get a little iffy about covering soulmate marks, but if Jack pays an extra fee under the table… it might work, right? He can go to a shady shop and get a shitty coverup job and everything will be fine. At least that will be a decision he’s able to control. A decision that isn’t written in the stars.
Or, he can leave it be and risk finding someone he’s “destined" to be with.
Jack shuts his eyes and sighs, ignoring the heavy feeling of want want want in his chest.
***
Or, the one where Jack Kelly and David Jacobs are soulmates, and neither of them are too stoked about it.

Jack Kelly and David Jacobs have a rough past. Addiction, toxic relationships, manipulation and lust disguised as love- every ingredient for a bad situation.
They break away from each other and grow. Heal. Find themselves.
Then, five years later, Jack and David meet again as different people- good people, better people, happy people- but the stakes are higher this time, with the addition of something new and perfect and pure. They could fall back into old habits, or rise above any expectations they've had together. It's only a matter of time, but... what if they give it another shot?

Summary
Sarah Jacobs is in love with Jack Kelly. She knows (though she shouldn't) that her brother David is also in love with Jack. Katherine and David love each other, too, in their own way. With Katherine's help, Sarah is going to make sure everyone gets to be happy.
In other news, Jack and David uncover a conspiracy against the railroad unions, Katherine finds a new story in a familiar location, and Sarah finds herself drawn into the work of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union.
(Or, the fic in which the author has historical notes at the end, and tries her best to explain the complexities of marriages and same-sex relationships in the 1900s - while also letting her characters push the boundaries of said relationships.)

"Jackie," David whispers, then hesitantly brings his palm up to rest against Jack's cheek. Jack takes in a sharp breath at that, and then David gently guides Jack to tilt his head up, to look at David, and--

David and Jack finally make eye contact, and David sees the wide-eyed realization on Jack’s face.
“Hi,” David breathes, his hands clenching at his side.
Jack blinks. Hesitates, then raises his hand to wave. “...Hey.”

It was supposed to be a one night stand. One night, one too many drinks, one stupid decision that wouldn't have an actual effect on anything David cared about, aside from giving him a much needed night off.
But, when his one night stand turns out to be a new every day part of his life for the foreseeable future, David has... some choices to make.For starters: choose to ignore his obvious attraction to the muralist working in his library, or choose to face the challenge head on.
If only he knew how to navigate this plot twist.

Summary
There’s a certain heaviness that settles in his chest almost immediately afterward, and it feels like someone has punched him several times in quick succession. It’s the kind of heaviness that makes him take in a deep, ragged breath, only to let out a shaky exhale not even a moment later.
Fuck.
Okay.
Breathe.

Or will he spiral until it's too late?
