Summary
George and Lorraine can’t stop thinking about their friend Marty. He promised them they would meet in the future yet he’s nowhere to be seen! He’s gotta have a reason for not showing and a reason why he acted so odd…
Based on a tumblr post by forecast0ctopus where Lorraine & George initially have different thoughts on why Marty acted so weird.

Summary
Marty stared at her for a moment or two, mouth agape in shock, before laughing nervously. "Uh, did I, uh, did I say all that out loud?" he stammered out.
"You asked what day it is," Linda replied, suspicion filling her voice. "It's Friday."
"…" Marty squirmed under her continued gaze. "Friday…………?"
Linda raised her eyebrow even more. "Friday, May 16th…… 1986."
"Oh, thank God." He breathed out a sigh of relief, bringing a hand to his chest. He looked down at it, held it up, and nervously glanced at Linda. "Hey, uh, I look… not see-through, right?" He realized this was a weird question, but at this point, she should be used to it.
"…opaque?" Linda clarified, looking even more confused.
"Yes- yes! Opaque." Marty nodded frantically. "I look opaque, right? Right?"
She furrowed her eyebrows. "Jeez, um. Yes. You look… very opaque. Are you alright?'(Or: marty lets slip that things Happened.... but post-game (and sort of post-comic) this time! cue the existential dread and paranoia!
again sort of a sequel to my other two fics, in which linda and dave find out that the movies happened.)Series

Summary
“Sorry,” Marty mumbled, and took a sip from his own drink.
“Jesus Christ,” Dave muttered. “This is a mess. I just wanted to relax today.”
“Sorry,” Marty repeated, sitting back down and putting his Pepsi on the table next to his empty cereal bowl. He reached for the pretzels and opened the bag, shaking a few out into his hand.
Dave shook his head. “No, it’s- well, I guess it is your fault.”
Linda reached over and slapped his arm. “Stop being an asshole.”
“I’m not being an asshole!” Dave exclaimed defensively. “I’m just- I’m being realistic!”
“You’re being an asshole to avoid asking a hard question,” Linda retorted. She sat down again, too, crossing one leg over the other. “Go on. Ask him something weird. It’s like enrichment for him.”
“'He' is right here,” Marty grumbled. They both ignored him.(or: yet ANOTHER marty lets it slip that the movies happened. somewhat of a sequel to my OTHER fic like this, where linda finds out. not necessary to understand, but there are some little continuity things from there you might miss if you dont read that first!)

Summary
Marty was happy for them, really, and happy himself too at first. He had Jennifer, whom he loved, a shiny new truck alongside an actually functional family? It should be perfect.
Except he didn’t fit into that happy ending. It hadn’t mattered in the past that he could never focus for long in school or that his impulsiveness landed him in trouble more than a few times. They all had their flaws.
Except changing the past hadn’t fixed him like it had them.
Or, Marty trying and failing to escape the changes that time travel brought and his own issues.

Summary
He felt some longing to see one particular person in his journey back to 1931.
Unbeknownst to him, Marty had realised he'd grown rather attached to the striking figure of the young Doc. His tall, lanky freckled and godly red-haired form proved such a difference to the much older Doc he was so accustomed to, and yet they were so similar in mannerisms.
It both baffled him and made so much sense at the same time.
Potential multi-shot, set two months after the Expo. Marty takes a visit to the old familiar ground of 1931 Hill Valley one more time.
