    Subject: Percy's back

    Hello, Raine. I know that you're on leave right now, but you asked me to tell you as soon as we got further news on Percy. He's home. He's safe. But can you please get back to me as soon as possible? He's not doing well, and he's been asking for you.

    I hope that you've been resting well.

    With love,
    Sally

    Summary

    When Jonah gets in trouble at school, Carlos is called to meet the principal, who seems more flustered by him than he is about picking up his kid from the principal's office.

    --

    “Well, before we continue, I just have to ask…” She tilts her head, trying for effortless and playful. “Is there a Mrs. Strand Reyes?”

    Carlos straightens in his chair, brow furrowing again, clearly confused by the direction in which this conversation is going.

    “…No?”

    Principal Hargrove lets out a little laugh.

    “That’s too bad,” she says, voice slipping into what she thinks is a flirty tone. “I’m, um… I’m single too. Nobody’s ever had the cajones to try.” She actually sings the last part, dropping her voice into a low baritone and wiggling her eyebrows while pointing at her bare ring finger.

    Carlos blinks.

    Then he calmly lifts his left hand from Jonah’s shoulder, revealing the shiny gold band on his own ring finger.

    “There is a Mr. Strand Reyes,” he says matter-of-factly.

    Principal Hargrove’s eyes go saucer-wide. She actually hears the hollow thunk of the Windows crash error sound as her brain freezes. The system needs a reboot.

    “Oh.”

    Summary

    TK was happier than he'd been in months. But he hated the fatigue, the weakness.

    It wasn't that feeling weak and tired was a totally new experience for him- he had been in recovery for one thing or another enough times before- but it didn't make the frustration of dealing with a body that just wouldn't cooperate any easier.

    And now even something as simple as taking a shower felt like climbing Mount Everest.

    Summary

    Their love for him, imperfect as it may have been, had been enough to carry the burden of silence.
    Up until now, that is. Until the second Carlos' father with flawed love and a hard way of showing it stepped through the front door and directed it at TK. “But I meant what I said earlier. This is my house and one day, I hope TK feels comfortable enough to call it his.”

    Or: Carlos invites his parents over for dinner to finally introduce them to TK, his boyfriend.

    Summary

    Carlos and TK are in the process of adopting Jonah when TK leaves his job to stay at home and take care of his little brother. Starting something new also means leaving some things behind.

    Post canon.

    Summary

    “We were between Honduras and the tip of Mexico when we went down.” He draws an X in the dirt. The area of the ocean that Carlos gestures to with his stick seems so miniscule, but TK knows it’s likely thousands of square miles. “We may have gotten slightly off course when we lost control, but yeah,” he slides his foot over the picture, effectively wiping it away. “It’s a start.”

    His eyes are stormy and his brow is furrowed. TK wants to smooth it out with his thumb, he wants to wash the dirt off his neck and ask him why he looks like he’s holding the weight of the world on his shoulders, but all he can do is nod and hope the rescue team can find them as easily as the map made it seem.

    Summary

    He rubs his chest feeling damp and droplets of water pooling at his neck. “What? Why? Why am I all wet?”

     

    “I threw water on you.”

     

    He tries to blink away the brain fog. “Okay, and why did you do that?”

     

    “You passed out! I thought you died!” Carlos says frantically, climbing off him, reaching a hand to help him sit up. “Again.”

     

    “So you decided to drown me and finish the job?”

     

    -

     

    TK and Carlos boink so hard that TK passes out.

    Summary

    bad call.

    It’s all TK types before shoving his phone back in his pocket, before his dad starts making a speech, before he looks over at Nancy who looks like she’s seen a ghost.

    He can hear his phone buzz in his pocket but he stands still looking at the back of the ambulance knowing that he’s going to have to clean the blood off all the equipment. He couldn’t stop looking at Nancy on the ride back, the small little splatters that rested on her cheek like a freckle, or the way that he watched her try and stop her hands from shaking, or how irritated her ear was because she kept trying to use her shoulder against it like it would help the ringing stop.

    or the one where Carlos, TK, and Nancy talk about grief and make cookies.

    Summary

    Carlos disappears through the opening and into the dining room. Owen hears the sounds of the table being set as he finishes chopping half a tomato. He grabs the cucumber when he’s done, and opens two drawers in search of a vegetable peeler. He finds one in the second drawer, but also finds something else.
     
    Owen frowns. He looks closer, sure at first that he’s seeing things. But it’s unmistakable, upon further examination. It’s a small clear tube of sexual lubricant.

    Summary

    He felt so stupid, asking for honesty, then made speechless when faced with it, all words abandoning him, turning him statuary still and useless, so useless.

    He thinks he had no true idea of what this actually meant for TK, of what this struggle entailed, all its nuances and cruel voices.

    He didn’t know of a hand capable of taking everything away, left wishing for happiness as if you never felt it at all.

    He thinks he does now, a bit better, in ways he didn’t expect to. Doesn’t make it easier, and he feels foolish he ever considered it would.

    It just makes keeping his foot on the gas, taking him away from it, from the memory of its claws deep into TK, much, much more difficult.

     

    A 3x13 coda in which Carlos has a conversation with a friend, puts his heart to rest, and learns that walking away does not mean surrender.
