Summary
By the time Will realized something was missing, it was already too late.
The change came quietly—the Party drifting, the laughter fading, the spaces growing wider. Yet to Will, the past still felt close. Like yesterday. Like it could all be fixed if he just reached out.
Especially him and Mike.
So Will stayed. Holding on. Hoping. Believing.
Until someone stepped into the space he didn’t even know was empty.

Summary
Boris wanted Theo. He wanted him so much he couldn’t help it, but it wouldn’t matter. Because life would shun them, shun Theo who just wanted a perfect life. Boris wanted to cry with Theo, but he wanted to seem like the stronger one, so he couldn’t do anything about their relationship. No matter how hard he wanted to shake Theo so hard to get it into his mind that he wanted him bad.
Theo wouldn’t ever remember doing this. He wouldn’t remember the kiss, he wouldn’t remember his sobbing.
They just went back to Theo’s house and never brought it up again. But Boris would remember. He always remembered when they would kiss or do it. Maybe that was how it would be for the rest of their time here in Vegas. Until Theo goes back to New York, finds a wife and kids, forget about Boris, and it wouldn’t matter if he was happy or not. He would still have a normal life, even if a part of him still yearned for Boris.
Even, if also a part of Boris also yearned for Theo.
He would forget this, and it would mean nothing.
— or 5 times they kissed and Theo forgot and the one time he remembered

Summary
“Meow,” and there’s no way she heard that right, eyes snapping away from where she’d been distractedly watching the TV screen and over to her brother’s friend. She checks again, and yeah, Will is holding a stuffed bear, not a cat. The beloved Tiggy stays firmly attached to his bag, so they aren’t playing with tigers, either.
“So they go back down the mountain, and now all the village people are asking them about the crystal, and Rory is sad thinking they didn’t get it that whole time, but then–”
“Meow. Meow,” Will declares, removing the teddy from the dinosaur’s back and making it do some sort of interpretive dance.
