an emotional crisis of identity and self-confidence that can occur in early middle age.~
Gavin sits back and laces his fingers together. “That movie, it had a lot of nice tech in it.”
“The mo- oh! You never did say if you liked Captain America or not. But whatever uh, yeah, Stark tech is pretty legit. Are you planning on like, doing some of that stuff? The flicky phone thing is pretty cool.”
“Not exactly, or at least, not yet. First, I'm going to get the XYZ team to construct me a suit of armor.”
Nelson blinks a couple times. “Wh-” he shakes his head. “Wait are- no, Gavin you can't be Iron Man.” -

Summary
Whenever Richard decides he’s capable of trying something new the first thing he does is collect research. Like when he decided to move out to Silicon Valley instead of finish college he researched tech companies for three days, housing for two weeks, and how best to handle getting sick on an airplane. When he mentioned it to Bighead he agreed in two minutes, something Richard just isn’t capable of at all.
So when Jared is upset and needs Richard to take charge Richard buckles down and does what he always does; he researches the hell out of it.
But really it’s Jared’s fault he’s looking up proper ways to top.

Summary
“Definitely, can't argue that at all, but,” Nelson digs out his phone, “so, I asked Gary about this.”
“Your cellphone?”
“Hooli cellphone, and this stays with the company.” Gavin nods. “Right, it stays here, and I leave.”
“That is how that works, yes.”
“This is the phone you call the most, and text.” Again, he nods, and Nelson is going to need to thank him for not being condescending because it's not his fault Nelson isn't being clear, not entirely.
“You should make sure I have your other number once you turn over your phone.”
“Yes. But before I do, let me say that again. This is the phone you text. A lot. Which worked great for the whole, keep things under wraps plan we have, but like I said, you text this phone and sometimes those texts are, uh… Well we haven't exactly kept things PG and-”

Don’t die."Series

Summary
"Gavin doubts Nelson will ever allow him to call him something like pretty or beautiful or anything that puts even the tiniest fragments of his masculinity into question, but with his hair still damp from the rain and slowly drying in a mess of curls and waves, eyes bright in the lantern light, and his shirt bunched up to his armpits revealing a lean, smooth torso, Gavin is certainly allowed to think those things about the young man below him."
My body is a vessel for a being of pure sin.

Summary
Gavin does not find the recruitment conference all that entertaining, but he manages to find someone at the conference to help pass the time.
“Lyle, you’re a smart young man.” Lyle nods and smiles, looking pleased that someone complemented his ability. Gavin can tell he doesn’t get a lot of praise. It’s a useful tidbit of information. “Now, handing a room key to someone is horribly cliché and frankly, overdone, and obviously a security risk I would never take, but I will tell you my room number, and you can use that information however you see fit.”
