    Summary

    Robin reaches for her. She slides a tentative hand towards her, palm up, knuckles skimming over Nancy’s thigh, the tips of her fingers twitching ever so slightly. 

    Nancy stares. And stares. 

    She wants to tell Robin, don’t offer your hand to me. If I hold it now, I might never let go. 

    She wants to tell herself, religion has taught you to be merciful. So be that. Let her go. Don’t take her hand when you might rip it clean off. 

    or: Robin is Nancy’s safe place.

    Summary

    Lucas wondered if there would be a day he stopped expecting Max to be sitting up, gazing back at him as he slipped into her hospital room. As the months crawled on, he wondered if one day, it’d be normal. Her, not having moved an inch. Her fiery hair limp against the pillow. Her eyes closed.

    It’s Christmas. It’s been months. He still thinks maybe, just maybe, he’ll see her blue eyes staring back at him.

    He’s almost ashamed he has to rattle out a breath when they don’t.

    “Hey Max,” he says, the snap of the door closing as familiar a punctuating noise as her heart monitor, “Merry Christmas.”

    OR

    Lucas and Max have a (mostly) quiet Christmas.

    Summary

    This is the first girl who’s ever asked Mike out — something he had, in the not too distant past, been terrified would never happen. And Mike just stands there, feeling like his dining hall dinner is about to crawl back up his esophagus.

    Jeremy, Saint Jeremy, nudges him with an elbow. “He’s kind of private about it, but Mike actually has someone back home.”

    Mike turns his head to look at Jeremy, expecting a knowing smile or the hint of a wink. But Jeremy actually looks sincere, which makes Mike’s eyebrows sink down, almost to the top of his nose.

    “Will, right?” Jeremy supplies, forever trying to be helpful. “He’s at CalArts?”

    Summary

    Prequel to Ten Year Drag - That one time Frank got drunk and made a pass at Gerard.

    Frank is drunk, but he’s not that drunk; at least not drunk enough for Brian to pull him out of the Killswitch party and lecture him for ten minutes about raging responsibly. Frank had tried to argue that he was fine and to stop being such a wet blanket, but he quickly lost the argument when he wavered on his feet a little too far and stumbled into a potted Ficus in the hallway. Brian gave him a deep frown – the one that says he’s being super serious and cracking any jokes is probably a bad idea if Frank doesn’t want to be hogtied to the back of the bus and dragged on the highway behind it.
