Summary
March had his palm read once, years back, by a hack psychic in a gaudy tent at some old timey carnival Holly had begged to go to. She'd taken one look at his craggy hands – two fingers bandaged at the time - and told him, in no uncertain terms, that if he didn't slow down, boy, he was gonna hurt himself. He tipped her very badly.
Suffice to say, he did not often have the appearance of a man in control of his own destiny.

Jackson remembers reading somewhere that it takes twenty-one days to form a habit that stays and a lifetime in order to break it again. In his experience, this is not true.

Summary
When Holly's dad met Mr Healy and he started doing better, little by little, she wished he would just get it over with and crash back to rock bottom.
Hope is a far worse emotion than disappointment.
Hope claws you open, to make room for itself as it grows.
Hope means you have so much further to fall when everything goes wrong.or
Holly has OCD and Healy & March are trying their best.
A lot of stupid gay shenanigans in this one.Bookmarked by SolicitousCheese

Summary
“So, I was thinking about why I’ve been throwing up. I think some of it is the actual, physical properties of the taumoeba, but I honestly think half the battle is the taste. See, humans use smell and taste to tell us if food is going to make us sick, like it’s moldy or smells weird, that sends a signal for disgust to our brains to stop us from eating it, and that triggers nausea.”
“I feel this way about all human food,” I say, and Grace rolls its eyes.
“Sure. But I think my brain is being overprotective about the taumoeba. It’s the same reason why human kids get picky or people throw up during pregnancy, even when the food they’re eating is perfectly edible. My brain is signalling to me that I shouldn’t want it in my body, mostly because -- well, I don’t. It smells like mildew and algae and has the texture of chia seed pudding that was forgotten at the back of a fridge. But that’s making me nauseous when I even think about putting it in my mouth, which makes me more likely to throw up.”
“But how would you eat without using your mouth?” I ask.
Grace grins at me. “That, my friend, is exactly the question I’ve been asking myself. And I think the answer might be something called a nasogastric tube."

Summary
Scruffy beard, glasses, hair in disarray. He's in a simple button-down and jeans, no place to hide any meaningful weapons, and faces away from Driver—exposes his vulnerable side, forgoes line of sight—to crouch in front of two boys who have been so silent he only now notices.
“C'mere,” the man mutters. He hoists one of them up and into his arms. The boy rests his cheek on the man's shoulder with a quiet sniffle, eyes squeezed shut. His small hands wrap around the man's nape in a death grip. He has a SpongeBob-patterned bandaid on his nose bridge.
The other boy grips onto the man's shirt hem with just as much vigor, though his eyes are wide open. He looks up at Driver with pointed eyes, clear and devastatingly full of suspicion.
They look at each other for half a moment of contemplative quiet.
Then, softly, “What floor?” Driver asks.
The elevator door closes.
or
Driver moves to the new apartment. Instead of Irene, his neighbor is kind teacher Ryland Grace with two twin younger brothers he's taking care of.

Summary
“Whoa, wait, back up.” Holland instantly sat up in his seat, grabbing hold of the arm so he could twist round to face Holly. “Klein? As in Janet Klein? Did you fucking punch Janet?!”
“Mr. March!” Principal Harrison admonished, “Language!”
Holland gave him an apologetic wince before he looked back at Holly.
“Holly,” he said, gentler, “Look at me.” He waited until Holly complied with his request. “Honey, did you punch Janet in the face?”
——OR——
Janet runs her mouth, and Holly finds that sometimes, a little violence is very helpful, actually.

When Grace gets seemingly teleported by means unknown into the SM-13 right as it was nearing The Light, both Simon and Grace have no idea what is happening.

Could-Secure-Our-Survival Smart.
She orders Simon to bring Grace back to the surface, and thus begins Grace's ordeal in a starless universe.- Language:

"Maybe."

“You deliberately manufacturer fragile air containers, question?”
“...Yes?”
“Why, question?”
A little soap, a zip tie, and an afternoon aboard the Hail Mary turn into an unexpectedly nostalgic lesson on bubbles, childhood, and why some things don’t need a purpose to matter.

Summary
The Eridians have finally gotten the water feature in Ryland's personal zoo enclosure just right (even if Rocky would like him to stop calling his dome that).
Rocky refuses to believe that humans naturally float. There is no way Ryland's entire species regularly goes into deep water for fun.

“Wait wait wait. Twins?” Tom asked, delighted. “You’ve been holding out on me. This is the younger, more attractive one.”
“Three minutes. Three,” Ryland said pointedly.
“And what a three minutes those were,” Colt said without missing a beat.
When Ryland Grace agrees to visit his brother on set, he expects to spend a few hours grading papers, worrying about Colt’s career choices, and perhaps explaining basic science to a Hollywood consultant.
He does not expect Tom Ryder.

"Your brother's a singer?" Tom asked, resting a side of his face onto his hand.
"Yeah," Colt nodded. "His songs are huge hit for young people is what I'm seeing."
✦•······················•✦•······················•✦
Tom would say being an English teacher for a middle school is quite the slow paced life he's gotten after he blew up his old career. As a teacher, he should be grading papers and plan out lessons for his kids, teachers stuff. He should NOT be freaking out over a singer, or deal with a stupid little crush he has on said singer.
