Summary
Thinking of Nursey as good-looking is a completely normal response to seeing him in the low light of the Haus, shirt rumpled from dancing on the coffee table earlier, eyes shining brighter than Dex has ever seen them off the ice, and an easy grin on his lips that reveals a flash of straight white teeth. It kind of looks like Nursey cares about something for once and it looks good on him. Objectively.
That doesn’t mean anything.
A hand clasps his shoulder and rips him out of his thoughts. The music—some song from when he was in middle school that’s most likely Holster’s fault—shifts back into focus and he realizes Nursey and Shitty are still standing in front of him with expectant expressions on their faces.
Nursey has his arms crossed over his chest, his shirt pulling tightly over his shoulders. Dex doesn’t dwell on it.
“Sorry, what?” he asks as his cheeks start to burn.
Or, five times Nursey chooses Dex and one time Dex chooses Nursey.

Summary
Considering the way he’s staggering in a jagged pattern down the hall, knocking shit off of the corkboard’s lost and found, and giggling to himself, Dex is ten-thousand percent sure that Nursey is in fact not fine.

Summary
The first time Nursey and Dex had hooked up, they were drunk. Nursey only remembered bits and pieces; daring Dex to take more shots, being surprised when he actually did and being absolutely astounded as Dex, flushed a pale pink with alcohol, hair disheveled and skin shining with sweat, tumbled into Nursey's lap, their limbs cuddling together in a drunken puddle of warmth.

Summary
Just, anyone, at this point, Dex thinks as he jangles the keys to Faber in his hand. Someone to stay out late with, or to stay in with. Someone who pulls him out of his stress zone when exam week approaches. Someone who throws a flirty wink from the other side of the room at a Kegster.

Summary
Literally no problem has ever been solved by secretly hooking up with one of your good friends whom you are not in love with to cope with the fact that the person who you are actually in love with does not love you. In fact, more problems are probably started by doing this than anything else.
Holster and Nursey do it anyway.

Summary
Maybe it was a slip of the tongue, or an accidental admission after one too many beers, because Nursey doesn’t hear Dex compliment anybody else.
Nursey isn’t sure why he’s - so far - the exception.
(Or, Dex doesn’t compliment anyone. Except Nursey.)

Summary
"Nursey." Bitty sounded about as disappointed as Nursey felt.
"Um. Yes. I'm stuck."
"You're stuck,"
"There's, like, ropes and shit." Nursey isn't exactly sure what he's saying or how to explain his situation; he's still relatively drunk.
(Derek Nurse does dumb shit and Eric Bittle is a Good Bro, at least initially.)

Summary
Working as a repairman, Dex has had his fair share of weird experiences, but being mistaken for a stripper is definitely the weirdest. He’d like to put that whole night behind him, but Derek Nurse must be the clumsiest person ever, because Dex is constantly there making repairs. It’s not exactly a problem, but Derek is distractingly hot and Dex really just wants to get to know him better, to develop a relationship that goes beyond professional.

Summary
Despite what many may think, William Poindexter was not born with a mountain of chips on his shoulder. His experiences helped to shape an outlook. An outlook that brings him into conflict with Derek Nurse: the guy whom he’s supposed to sync with on the ice. Ultimately, if he’s to last in Samwell and forge peace with Nursey, Dex needs to reconcile his past-driven views with the reality of the present.

Summary
Dex signs with the Las Vegas Aces, leaving Nursey at Samwell.
Will knows he loves Derek. Derek just knows that he really misses his best friend.
Neither of them are very good with their words. The universe (and some teammates) may have to do something about that.

Summary
“I’d thought that things were better between the two of you,” Lardo says. “Better than we’d thought possible.”
Every part of Dex wants to scream that that’s the entire problem.
Or: A few days before he moved into the attic, Dex torched a rancid slice of pie with a flamethrower. This was to show everyone, especially Nursey, that the two of them simply didn’t work together, even as everything else seemed to prove him wrong.

Summary
So close to giving up, so close to going all the way
So close to taking off, so close to going nowhereNursey always felt like he and Dex were on the edge of something he couldn't quite put into words. Once they started living together it only became harder to ignore, and as Nursey started looking at Dex in a new light it felt like their whole relationship got flipped on its head.
He couldn't exactly say he minded.

Summary
When your d-man partner/roommate comes out to you as bi, it's a good idea to show you support him, right? And when your friend offers to set him up with someone on her volleyball team, you can still be supportive then, right?
Nursey planned to do his best, but honestly, he just can't keep pretending. And when Dex really hits it off with some girl Farmer introduced to him at a kegster, it's just too much.

"Um. Dex, I'm pretty sure that your mom friended me our freshman year. Like, I'm also almost 100% sure that she friended everyone on the team. She and Bitty swap recipes all the time, she's liked every single one of Lardo's pictures, and she's always poking me... so, like, your mom is super cool, and if you don't want me to be Facebook friends with her, I'm not the one you should be taking this up with."
"First of all, my mom pokes you? What the fuck?"
