Summary
Lewis looks up from the contract, raising a brow, then stumbles up from the sofa when he sees Dick standing in the doorway. It’s not so odd, in itself, but Dick is in his skivvies and blinking into space, like he’s not quite sure why he’s even standing up.
“Hey, there,” Lewis says, reaching out and touching at a clammy shoulder with a wince. “You look peaky – you feel okay?”
“Nix is gone.”
“You found him, who else – ?” Lewis pauses, lifting slightly on his toes to better peer up at Dick’s face, into his half-open, glassy eyes, and falling back flat on his feet when he realizes Dick must still be asleep. He’s never seen him sleepwalk, or talk, but… it’s not necessarily impossible. “Hey, you need to go back to bed… I think.”
“Taylor sent Nix to Varsity.”
“What a bastard,” Lewis says, wry, as he gently pushes Dick up the stairs.
“The plane exploded,” Dick says, his voice tightening, lifting some from the bland drone.

Summary
Nix is a cosmology researcher at the University of Chicago, plumbing the secrets of the universe, but his time is running out. As the end of his grant approaches, he knows it's time to head back to New Jersey, to the family job awaiting him there, to his wife and his increasingly unhappy marriage. But everything and everyone he loves — the research that gives him purpose, the students he's grown unexpectedly fond of, his colleagues, in the form of Ron and especially his best friend Dick — are in Chicago. Are his career and the life he's carved for himself in Chicago worth destroying his family's expectations?

Summary
They don’t kiss much, or barely ever. Nix will initiate a kiss when his blood’s running hot and he’s close to coming in Dick’s fist and that, for whatever reason, makes him feel soft and needy like a swooning girl. They kissed once after Nix was struck down by a bullet, and once to celebrate VE-Day. They kissed in a foxhole, desperately, amidst exploding trees.

Summary
It wasn’t so difficult, really, to avoid wanting. He had so many other more important things to think about that hunger and thirst were the only desires he cared to satisfy – and he tried to keep those to a minimum too. But in Paris it was as if he had abruptly come back into his body after a long time away, a traveler returning to a home that was familiar and unfamiliar.

Summary
Easy Company was at its breaking point, on a tipping scale between life before and life after the war. Dick, it would seem, was no different. When he reneges on an order for a second prisoner snatch, fate decides that one good deed deserves another, and on the night that Nix writes his bogus report into the early hours, Dick wakes to find himself in another place, in another time, and in a reality in which he’s dating Lewis Nixon III.

Summary
He kisses Dick like he’s going off to war, because they are, the both of them, and of course that’s exactly when his Jeep pulls up with a flurry of beeps, and they spring apart. Dick stares at him for a moment, wide-eyed, but there’s nothing to do.
“Well,” he says, mimicking Dick’s words, two minutes and an eternity ago. “See you around.”

Summary
“How is that a story?” Dick protests, but he’s smiling too, a crooked shape he reserves for his own rare moments of necessary humility.
“There’s no place like the army for gossip,” Nix tells him, completely without sympathy. “But please,” he gestures broadly, “set the record straight.”
