    Summary

    Finn, with a black eye or a hand shaped bruise ringing his wrist from someone grabbing his arm. Robin keeps a tally of each one, Finn's body acting as a scorecard of all his failures.

    Maybe he should be thrilled Finn is finally standing up for himself; he is, partially, but he also feels a sick thudding pulse of failure. Finn wouldn't have had to if Robin was there.

    Summary

    She's tired of Finn doing this. Tired of having to take care of him. She won't stop helping, because she loves him, but it makes a nasty feeling of resentment churn in her gut. It's so fucking unfair. She doesn't wanna resent Finn the way she resents Terrence, but some days it feels almost the same. Two different shades of the same nauseating color. Like Finn is turning into a faded photocopy of their dad, one that's been copied over too many times to be legible.

    Summary

    If pressed, Beth would have guessed that the guy tailing her would’ve looked a little more… intimidating. This guy looks like a bad caricature of an ambulance chaser, but she can see the glint of metal against the glass in the dim glow of the nearest street light. Swallowing, she steels herself and looks into the man’s light eyes--he waves the gun in a get on with it gesture, and she unbuckles her seatbelt. He steps back and straightens as she opens the door with ice in her veins.

    “You’re not my Uber driver,” she says, voice steady and throat dry.

    “No,” the man replies easily. “But I am gonna take you on a ride.”

    Ew.

    Summary

    "I go outside," Finn says dully.

    "With friends," his dad adds.

    Here we go, Finn thinks. He'd roll his eyes if the weed didn't make even that feel like a monumental task. He's pleasantly heavy and warm. The TV hums and crackles at a low, nearly inaudible volume.

    "Whatever happened to that one boy you hung around with?" his dad asks. "He came around to drop off your homework once. What was his name?"

    Finn stiffens.

    Summary

    He wants to forget, forget, forget. The remembering is so endless, it’s digging a hole in his head, dark and full and gray.

    Or: It's been three years since Finney has heard from Robin. All he wants is to see him again.
