    Summary

    And Carlton—Carlton is the perfect stand-in, Will thinks. Or at least as close as he can get without the real thing. He has it all—the black curls, the brown doe eyes framed by long lashes, the porcelain skin, even the dusting of freckles across the bridge of his nose. The affinity for ugly windbreakers. The Reeboks. And sometimes, if Will closes his eyes, he can convince himself that it’s really—that it’s him. Almost. Almost, because he knows nothing could ever replace the real thing. Not ever.

    or

    mike shows up on will’s doorstep in his rain-soaked work suit five years later and knocks will’s world off its axis.

    Summary

    “Looks like I bit you.” Will tilts his head to get a better look. All Mike can do is stare at him. His fluffy hair at the front, clumped pieces at the back where he’d slid his fingers in a mere few minutes before. His pretty green eyes that look hazel or even brown in this light, the dark circles he gets when he drinks framing them like intricate paintings. A satisfied, bloody smile.

    Mike isn’t satisfied. He swallows thickly, choking down the words 'don’t you want more?'

    Or: Will dresses as a vampire for a college halloween party, but Mike thinks his costume isn’t bloody enough. Will lets him fix it. Mike goes into a crisis.

    Summary

    Will thrashes out of his covers, and finds the cool metal of his flashlight on the floor next to him.

    He pushes the button until his joints protest, and a noise is pulled from his throat that he hadn’t heard himself make in years.

    Karen’s candle flickers on the table next to him. The flame is laughing at him. He’s sure of it.

     

    -

     

    Will is scared of the dark, and has a bad relationship with open flames. Mike tries, and Guy Gardener is there too- only, he is in the form of a glo-worm.

    Summary

    One of them fell first. The other fell harder.
    Fifteen years of rejection, mistakes, and unspoken feelings have made House and Wilson careful, too careful to risk what they have. Their history is a delicate balance between friendship and something deeper, always hovering just out of reach.

    Yes, there will be flashbacks to scenes we never got to see properly.
