Are you going to chase down this evil gran tomorrow?” Tim says.

“Are you going to Pride this year?”
Tim and Martin do the washing up, and discuss words, identity, and community. Nothing changes, but that's fine.

Summary
“So, where are we going?” asks Melanie, and Georgie looks over to her, watches the glow from the restaurant windows catch on the golden rings in her ears. Melanie’s voice is excited, and in the light the gold is warm and burnished. It looks like adventure.
Melanie and Georgie don't go on a date, quite, but they do go for dinner (and then they get chips)

Summary
To be fair to Sasha and her “snooping”, she doesn’t just want to work out why Martin fills out his forms with so little regard for academic protocol. The man’s sweet, and apparently perfectly friendly, and his tea is to die for. He just won’t talk to her, not really, won’t socialise much in the office at all and when he does it’s scattered and nervous, and Sasha’s used to people claiming she’s “intimidating”, too tall and too tenacious for half the academics she meets, but Martin doesn’t seem like that sort of arsehole. His nerves apply to Jon as much as they do to her, and he seems like he could use another friend with some archival experience. More than anything, Martin Blackwood is someone she’d like to understand.
It turns out I'm just very invested in the concept of Martin and Sasha being friends before it all went to shit

“You miss him.”
“Yes, well, he’d hate that, if he knew.”
The peace in the safehouse gives Jon some time to process, and grieve. It takes Martin a little longer.Series

Summary
After Christopher comes back from Texas, Eddie makes an important decision: he is not going to blow up his life anymore. He will not be making mistakes, he will not be screwing up, he will not be having emotional affairs with the doppelgänger of his dead wife. He is going to be logical. Make good decisions. Use the strategies he’s learned in therapy even though he’s complained to Frank a million times that breathing exercises only piss him off more. Still, he’ll do them, because he is a logical, rational person. Or, at least, he is from now on.

Summary
Buck always assumed he knew everyone in US tennis.
Even before he played professionally, he was watching Maddie compete. He'd entered every single tournament that would take him since age 11. He’s been on the Tour since he was 17.
But he’s never met Edmundo Diaz.

Summary
Buck tries to commit the frame to memory, wills himself not to forget the important details—Eddie on his knees in front of him, his nails seeking purchase along Buck's thighs as he drinks him down, his drawn-out gasps when Buck returns the favor.
After, when Buck reaches out for quiet confirmation in the dark, asks him, "Good?"
Eddie tells him, earnest and hard-won, "Everything is good with you," and Buck can bask in the illusion of a world where he almost believes it.
Buck is trying to leave the past where it belongs. Then he wins an all-expenses-paid trip to Italy, convinces Eddie to join him, and falls headfirst into (not so) casual sex with his best friend.

Summary
Their lips pull apart with a wet smack. They don’t move far, heads resting on the pillow, a close-up shot of the dreamy expression spreading across Eddie’s face. Buck thinks maybe he can blame the late hour for his lack of filter, because he hasn’t even really processed the thought before he blurts out, “can I be the one to propose?”
-----
The universe can interfere all it wants. Buck knows he and Eddie are meant to be together.Series

Summary
Maddie is fourteen when her brother dies, and two days later her parents pack their lives up into the car and tell her it’s time to go. Only, there’s something injured sitting in the back seat and nobody will tell her what it is.
Buck knows that he’s missing some years from his childhood and that the accident that took them from him is the same one that left him with patchwork scars all over his body. He just doesn’t realize that those years aren’t missing like a lost thing, but like a thing that was never there to begin with.
They’re both dealing with it.
