    Summary

    It’s 2016. The gang is in their mid-late 20’s, and it’s been a while since they’ve all been able to get together.

    Layla has done her best to keep everyone in her life - she chats with the always-busy Will and Ethan on the phone occasionally, grabs a coffee with Magenta and Zach about once every few weeks, and still meets Warren at The Paper Lantern for dinner more often than the balance in her bank account would prefer. Still, she misses the times when she had everyone in the same room. So, she hatches the perfect plan: their first annual Friendsgiving dinner.

    Meanwhile, Warren has been sitting on his feelings for Layla longer than he would like to admit. No other woman compares to her, but she’s been his best friend for years - potentially messing that up by admitting everything is something he’s hesitant to risk. The odds that she feels the same way for him are probably just as slim as the odds of her ever getting back together with Will after the two decided they just weren’t compatible with each other… I.E., close to zero.

    But maybe at Friendsgiving - with enough liquid courage - Warren can work up the nerve to finally tell Layla that he’s always wanted to be more than just friends.

    Summary

    "How are people gonna sign your cast?" the girl asks. "If it's all black?"

    "Um. Dunno. S’okay,” Daryl says awkwardly when it becomes clear she’s waiting for some kind of response. “Ain’t like - don’t really think nobody’ll wanna sign it anyway. So."

    Instead of getting the kid to let up, this statement seems to somehow capture her interest. She uncurls in the chair a little, looking at him with a wide-open face. “Why not?"

    But he’s saved from having to answer that by Carol the desk lady, who breaks into a little half-run when she sees Daryl waiting. “Sorry, sorry - just had to step away for a moment, sorry about that, Daryl.”

    “S’fine,” Daryl mumbles. She doesn’t have to apologize to him for taking a piss or whatever, good Lord.

    Summary

    She pulled up the messages between them, and it was nothing she expected. Against her nature, her heart seemed to flutter. It was preposterous and went against everything she stood for.

    “Oh, my God.” Wednesday didn’t seem to notice that Enid and the rest of her guests were staring at her in shock. “Are you smiling?”

    Summary

    “Ajax asked me to get along with you this weekend.” Wednesday explained. Tyler nodded “And you think that’s impossible?” He asked.

    Wednesday arched an eyebrow “Do you still turn into an uncontrollable monster?”

    Tyler smirked “Only if you ask nicely.”
