Summary
this was what they meant, he thought, in the haftarot of consolation, behold I will set your stones with carbuncle, and I will lay your foundations with sapphires, the foundations of his soul had been cleared out and replaced with glittering stones and he felt— free, unencumbered, like nothing and nobody could hurt him, not ever again.
Pittsburgh, 1986-1990.

Summary
Robby frowned and looked at Jack. "Is it me or are you now off Monday through Thursday?"
"Yeah, I figure we can drive out Tuesday morning and come back in time for my shift Friday night."
Robby's eyebrows rose in surprise. "Did someone invite you to the cabin I rented?" Jack tilted his head and just looked at Robby, silent and expectant. After a long moment, Robby huffed a resigned laugh, like he wondered why he even bothered protesting. "Jack, would you like to come hiking with me?"

Summary
'There was no formal arrangement, nothing that could easily be defined as any recognizable brand of relationship. But Jack learned in the army that sometimes you needed someone to hold. To remind you that you’re human. That there’s someone who cares. Not that either of them would say anything mushy like that. It was basically a business transaction. Sleep in each other’s beds a couple nights a week and in exchange make it to the following week without going off the deep end. Business.'
...
Dr. Abbot starts the day on the edge of the roof, and ends it talking his friend off the same ledge. In the process, he reflects on their strange relationship.
...
Written during season one, as a result some elements are canon divergent.

Summary
“I need a favour.” Will said intensely to the group of people assembled before him.
“Okay so last year my brothers were ragging me about going to a liberal arts college and just generally being dicks. Sibling stuff, and like, that was fine. But then Christopher was like ‘found yourself a boyfriend yet?’ like as a joke and I’d had it up to here with their shit and replied, ‘so what if I have?’ So now my family think I’m gay and expect me to bring a boyfriend to this big ole reunion. If I don’t bring one they’re just going to get worse.”
His friends all blinked at him, surprise evident in each of their faces.
“I’ll do it.” Nursey said slowly
Or the fake dating au that we need sorry not sorry.

Holster spots it first.
"Holy shit, Nurse!" he says, loud enough to shatter the pre-practice quiet. "Did you pull a cougar last night or something?"
(Nursey has a unique way of handling stress. Dex is seriously, seriously unchill.)

Summary
Coach slams his fist against his desk and Will flinches, prepared for the anger, but not at all prepared for the concern in the man's eyes when he looks down at him.
"I want to help you, Poindexter, I really do. You're important to this team and the organization is proud to have you; but, son, I can't fix what I don't know about." His gaze drills right into Will's carefully crafted armor when he pleads, "You've got to talk to us."One conversation at a time, Dex learns to stop hiding from his team and, ultimately, from himself.

the obligatory subtext of being bisexual by dancingpen808
Fandoms: Check Please! (Webcomic)
22 Jul 2020

Summary
He’s flirting, he knows it, and he thinks Dex knows it too. Nursey’s never quite sure what Dex makes of him- does he know Nursey’s being serious? Does he know that Dex is on his “I’m down if you are” list? Does he know that maybe Nursey wants more than just sex, that sometimes he thinks about what it could be like to just hold each other?
In which Holster's out, and so is Nursey, and watching them get handsy at a kegster definitely Does Not make Dex jealous.

Summary
Dean and Seamus found secretive roads behind Dean’s house that led to the sea, where they watched the rise and fall of foamy waves with a collectively held breath. His stepdad Gerry flipped steaks and roasted bacon in the afternoons, awkwardly attempted to teach Dean to do so, and regretted it. He did get along with Seamus, though; they played ball in the backyard, and Dean sketched his friend kicking red dust into the air. He held his breath then, too, but he did not know why.

Summary
After two and a half semesters at Samwell, Dex has gotten used to people handling their stress in weird ways. Bitty bakes up a storm, Lardo is constantly covered in what Dex really, really hopes is paint, Ransom turns into a curled-up ball of anxiety on the nearest flat surface. He gets it: people are just weird here.
That doesn’t mean he doesn’t choke on his Red Bull when Nursey sighs, “God, I’m so tense right now. I just really need to suck a dick, y’know?”
(Or: five times Dex and Nursey really don’t quite know what they’re doing, and one time they’ve really, really figured it out.)
