Summary
"Ian reaches out his arm. He wants to close the space between them—but also stay right where they are. Him by the pickup counter, Mickey near the sodas, like two strangers eyeing each other in some random store. Or—just Ian and Mickey. Ian and Mickey who’ve known each other nearly twenty years now. Them, on a Thursday morning at Walgreens, the day Mickey comes with his husband to pick up the pills from the new prescription his shrink gave him barely thirty minutes ago.
“Ian?”
The pharmacist’s voice is cheerful. She uses his first name, like they do at Starbucks.
He confirms his name and date of birth distractedly. When he lays the letterhead paper on the counter, he re-read the words written on it. He knows them by heart, without hating them.
"Extended-release medication."
It means one dose a day instead of three for the same effect."
// Post canon, Ten years after his wedding with Mickey, Ian is encouraged to try a new medication plan. During the weeks after he starts this new dosage, he has to deal with the adjustment and a dramatic event Hhappening in the Gallagher family.Series

Ian 2:06 PM: "Use your employee discount."
Mickey 2:07 PM: "I don’t give a fuck about that discount. Ain’t no way I’m dropping ten bucks on three shitty pairs of socks. Stop being a bitch and just get some."

Mickey 2:09 PM: "See? Wasn’t that hard."

Summary
"This whole shitshow started on a Tuesday morning, when some asshole rang their door. Ian answered and let him up. He was a cop.
He wasn’t there to arrest Mickey, or Ian either. His little invasion of their apartment barely lasted a few minutes.
“So, what can we do for you?” Ian asked, his voice shaky.
The cop looked straight at Mickey. He already knew exactly who he was.
Then he told him that “under the agreement made with the District Attorney’s office in case number 452—who gives a fuck—your testimony will be required at the trial of Cesar Ruíz, a high-ranking member of the Calderon cartel.”
That’s when Ian dropped the mug he was holding.
Mickey tried to catch his green eyes over the cereal box, a pathetic attempt to calm him down.
Since his husband couldn’t meet his gaze, he stood and planted himself beside him. They must’ve looked ridiculous—Mickey on his feet, Ian hunched in a chair, both of them staring at a river of black coffee and a goddamn cop.
// Post canon: When a cop shows up at their door with pretty bad news Ian and Mickey goes through some difficult days. But, they are together. So, it's okay.Series

Summary
"“Okay. We’ll change it in two days,” Ian mumbles, thoughtful, more to himself than to Mickey.
He frowns.
“You said it was nothing. . How long am I supposed to keep this shit on?”
He stares at his finger, now swollen into some ridiculous white foam sausage with the bandage wraped around.
Ian strokes his hand, tracing the same line over and over between Mickey’s thumb and the bone of his wrist.
“It’s nothing. I’ve seen way worse, even on you. But it needs time to heal. The active stuff inside the bandage will act and help pull the edges of the wound together,” he explains, gathering all the crap he used to patch Mickey up into a little pile at his feet.
“Fucking gross,” he huffes.
Ian lets out a little laugh, lifts his free hand to touch his face.
“That’s just how the human body works,” he retorts easily.
With exaggerated care, he lays Mickey’s mutilated hand on his thigh. The blood’s probably still dripping under the foam, but thanks to that damn bandage, Mickey can’t feel it anymore. It's so much better like that."
// Post canon, Mickey experiences his first domestic accident.Series

Mickey calls it quality control, not jealousy, not possessiveness, just making sure the world remembers who Ian goes home with.
He’s got it handled. Totally under control.Until one guy flirts with him instead, and Ian Gallagher decides to redefine the term entirely.
(Or: five times Mickey definitely wasn’t jealous, and one time Ian absolutely lost his goddamn mind cause HE IS.)
