Summary
The thing is, she’s pretty sure what it is. She’s probably just lucky it didn’t happen to her about Maverick. When she was thirteen and her mom bought The Hard Deck, Admiral Simpson came in on re-opening night, drank two rye whiskeys, and became the object of her fantasies for three years running. It’s just – her dad is at best absent, at worst overbearingly present and hypercritical. She’s got access to the internet and a disturbingly all-knowing TikTok algorithm to guide her; it’s not hard to self-diagnose.

Summary
James gave her a reassuring smile. “You can love somewhere,” he began, and maybe he meant somewhere and someone, too, but Erin wasn’t ready to have that conversation. “And still need to leave it for a while. Derry will always be here,” he reassured, reaching out and giving her knee a gentle squeeze.
“And you?” she breathed the words. "Will you always be here?"
- or, a series of moments over their university years where james and erin fall together, fall apart, and find their way home to each other.

Summary
Hailey has to keep reminding herself this change is temporary. A temporary new partner. A temporary new city. NYC is fun, it's new, but it's not home. It’s not permanent. Jay’s calls and texts only remind her of that.
Jay, though? He’s not temporary. He’s permanent. He's home. And somehow, the distance only makes that more obvious.
OR -- Hailey and Jay learn exactly what absence does when you’re already falling.

Summary
The limping suitcase almost slipped from Zhou Zishu’s hand when he saw him, clutching a spare jacket and a bag of Skittles to the chest of his pajama shirt, under an orange scrolling LED panel that’s paging the most recently landed flight. Qantas Airways, hailing from Canberra. Everything else—the sticky carpet, the merry-go-rounds of luggage, the custodian snuffing out a cigarette in the water fountain—vaporized from Zhou Zishu’s vision. Everything else desaturated.
Wen Kexing opened his soft, pink mouth. “Say you’ve missed me.”

Summary
George rolls her eyes. “Men. I don’t think the spell is letting him really care, Nick.” She looks at Nancy. “If anything, I’d say it’s just sharpening the object of his affections and desires. I’m definitely not a big part of it, because according to the spell the person can’t resist being around the object of their affections, and Ace had no problem pulling away from me when Bess walked in the door.”
Nancy chokes, unable to keep back a bark of laughter. “Ace hit on Bess?”
“I’d pay to see that again,” George says wistfully, crossing her arms and looking at the doors leading into the restaurant. “Funniest shit I’ve seen all year.”
or; ace gets hit with a spell that makes him want to romance all the women he sees. the (potential) problem: that includes nancy

Summary
Eddie, ten years younger, in this awful 2010, blinks up at him. He's still sitting slumped on the curb, and for a second Buck thinks he might tell him to fuck off, but then his eyes fall shut and there’s something — aching and painfully vulnerable in the bend of his mouth, the faint tension in his brow. “My…um, girlfriend, I guess. She’s pregnant.”
“Holy shit,” Buck says.

or, buck deals with some wonky dimensional/time travel and then breaks up with his girlfriend. eddie, obviously, is involved.

History says, 'Don’t hope
On this side of the grave'
But then, once in a lifetime,
The longed for tidal wave
Of justice can rise up,
And hope and history rhyme.- Seamus Heaney
