    Summary

    The thing about "no" is that you never expect it to open a door. And it didn't, not for them, not for years of heartache and anger and grief. But slowly, eventually, that word blossomed into possibility. Into shaky first steps, gentle hands tentatively rebuilding trust, brown eyes once again learning to see each other, imperfect as they were.

    Summary

    There are more secure facilities-- plenty of them. Moscow, Leningrad, hell most municipal buildings in the Soviet Union have a better baseline of security than this. But instead they're here. Someplace so small and out of the way that the only remarkable thing about it is that it's barely a hundred miles from where Owen died.

    Summary

    “You don’t know why I’m so mad?” Owen says, dragging a hand down his face. He’s regretting every decision he’s ever made and then some. "I don’t know, maybe because there is a bullet in the side of the asset I was supposed to be looking after?”

    Curt leans against the table a little, smiling weakly. “Careful, Carvour. Keep it up and I might start thinking you care.”

    He is going to strangle him. Owen is actually going to strangle Curt.

    Summary

    “Please, Owen,” Curt gathered his partner’s hands in his own hopefully, “Please, I’m begging you.”

    Something in the air shifted and Owen slowly withdrew his hands from Curt’s.

    “Are you?” He cocked his head, “In my opinion, if you were begging, you’d be on your knees.”

    Summary

    Something about the machine was magnetic, drawing all their focus towards it like a black hole capturing light. It wasn’t much more interesting than the other games in the arcade – in fact the design was fairly simple – but it was attention-grabbing, enticing. The overwhelming lights and sounds of the arcade seemed to fade away, muffled like they were underwater. But Ziria stayed bright and loud as before, becoming by contrast the only interesting thing in this arcade.
    “That game’s new,” Ruth stated.

    When Pizza Pete's gets a new arcade game, Ruth, Richie, and Pete make it their mission to beat it. However, something about the new game isn't quite right, and teens in town become obsessed with playing it.

    Summary

    Ted Spankoffski is a lot of things: an asshole, a sleazeball, the 'other person' of more than a few adultery allegations, pansexual, and, most importantly, an unlucky fucking bastard.

    Except, this time, the story isn't about him. (It never really is, though, is it?) This time the only thing you need to know about Ted Spankoffski is that he's a big brother.

    And it's about damn time his little brother got a taste of that good, old fashioned Spankoffski luck, don't you think?

    (Alternatively titled: Ted's perspective on Nerdy Prudes Must Die)

    Summary

    The worst thing he decides is the waiting. The being alone. Darkness lingers just out of reach while his body struggles to live on. He can’t move. He can barely think. Just enough to know that no one else is there. That no one else will come.
    But then they do.

    Richie survives his first encounter with Max Jägerman. And then also his second.

    Summary

    Peter Spankoffski’s life is boring and routine and he’s okay with that. Mostly.
    Until, one morning he wakes up minutes before his alarm goes off, nauseous and sweaty and totally fucked. (He just doesn't know that part yet. Shhhh.)
    And then, the next morning he wakes up minutes before his alarm goes off, nauseous and sweaty and totally fucked.
    And then, the next morning he wakes up minutes before his alarm goes off, nauseous and sweaty and totally fucked.
    And then, the next morning he wakes up minutes before his alarm goes off, nauseous and sweaty and totally fucked. (By this point he’s figuring that one out. Good for him!)

    (Alternatively Titled: Pete gets stuck in a time loop. It’s just not, necessarily, his time loop.)

    Summary

    Peter Spankoffski relies on logic. On facts and observable truths. If he makes assumptions, they’re based on careful pattern observation and a rational understanding of the elements at play.

    In order for Pete to believe that Stephanie Lauter was interested in dating him, he would have to see some pretty compelling empirical evidence.

    Summary

    "Petey," came a quaking voice.

    "Hey, Theo."

    OR

    Steph gets to meet Pete's old friend, the homeless man, better known to him as 'Theo.'

    Summary

    “What happened?” Charlotte asks.

    Out of instinct—Ted always promised he’d never lied to her, even though that too was a lie—he almost tells her the truth. I just hit the gas and drove into the thickest tree I could find.

    Instead, he says, “Lost control. Hit a tree.”

    AKA ted crashes his car on christmas eve. it’s not exactly an accident.
