    Summary

    When Kevin Price attended his best friends' wedding, he didn't think he'd end up meeting someone for himself. But then a handsome stranger in a flower crown enters the scene, one of the newlyweds plays matchmaker, and Kevin has to overthink his definition of a first date.

    And that's not even addressing the one thing which ruined a lot of his dates in the past years.

    ‘Let’s do one last one for now,’ Kevin replies, pulling Connor close. Really close.

    They’re nearly the same height, which means he can smell Connor’s aftershave or perfume, or whatever it is that makes him smell this nice.

    The pang of warmth and want curling in Kevin’s stomach comes as a surprise. It doesn’t let up when the song finishes, either.

    ‘Wanna grab a drink and head somewhere quiet?’

    Summary

    It’s Arnold who suggested it, of course.

    You see, after… that which shall not be named, they technically don’t have to follow the rules anymore. Being semi-excommunicated, it isn’t really clear if they still get to call themselves Mormon once they go back home okaaaay time to stop thinking about that; the point remains: they’re free to make up a new way of living. But after nineteen years of having those rules hardwired into your skull, it’s not easy to break with habit.

    There’s a list in Arnold’s near-illegible chicken scratch. Connor can barely make out what it says at the very top: Companion swapsies, with a little star drawn next to it.

    They’re basically going to try and break as many rules as possible in the upcoming week.

    Summary

    Kevin can be a self-centered asshole, Arnold knows, but he's rarely an other-person-centered one. But that doesn't keep him from falling apart after a moment with the waiter, apparently.

    Summary

    Kevin Price doesn’t do things by half measures, especially not something so pedestrian as falling in love.

    Summary

    "Welcome to FunZone Arcade and Laser Tag, except the laser tag arena is still closed due to health and safety violations, half the machines are malfunctioning, and it's not very fun. So actually, welcome to Zone."

     

    In suburban Florida, there's an arcade. In said arcade, there's a guy named Kevin Price. He works minimum wage, has an exhausting rivalry with his co-worker, and owns almost no furniture in his depressing flat for one. And when you've hit rock bottom, like Kevin well and truly has, there's no other way to go but up.

    There's just some developing friendships, feelings, laser tag (or lack thereof), pyromania, and gnomes along the way.
