Summary
Cordelia has tried to warn Marvin about the slippery slope that is moping, how wallowing in his own depression can do nothing but make him feel worse. He imagines Mendel, a beatnik muppet in his own mindscape, blabbing on about the uselessness of ruminating. Remembers himself retorting something along the lines of ‘What’s wrong with thinking, Mendel, some of us still do that. You know, thinking?’ He rips the muppet off the arm controlling it and throws it across the room.

Summary
As of today, it has been two months since Whizzer and Marvin got back together.
They decided, to celebrate this, they would try making some fancy hamantaschen recipe from a kosher recipe book Cordelia had given Marvin out of her vast collection.
While Marvin washed his hands in preparation for their baking, Whizzer let himself reminisce on their second-first-date.

Summary
“In the month of May when all leaves open, I see when I walk how well all things lean on each other, how the bees work, the fish make their living the first day. Monarchs fly high; then I understand I love you with what in me is unfinished. I love you with what in me is still
changing, what has no head or arms or legs, what has not found its body. And why shouldn’t the miraculous, caught on this earth, visit the old man alone in his hut?"Robert Bly, “In the Month of May”
Whizzer, against his better judgement, attends his ex-lover's son's little league baseball game.

Summary
“...Hello?”
Whizzer’s voice was low and raspy, like he hadn’t been awake but not quite asleep either. Like he had been up late. With somebody, or alone. Up late, breathless. Still, he sounded alert. Marvin already felt stupid.
“Hi. It’s, uh, it’s Marvin.” Do you remember? The fag from the game.
“Oh.” Whizzer said, and Marvin could hear the smile already blooming on the other end of the line. “I figured. You know, not many people call me this time of the night unless they’re horny or dying.” Marvin didn’t answer right away. He felt the scotch in his hand and the heat crawling up his neck. His whole body reacted. “Which one are you?”
Well, the situation’s this: it’s 1978 and Marvin takes Jason out to a baseball game. He’s incredibly bored until one Whizzer Brown happens to sit next to him. It’s a terrible place for this and even worse timing, but Marvin always has a hard time saying no to himself.

Summary
Whizzer Brown wasn’t looking for salvation. He was looking for a drink, maybe a distraction, maybe someone to touch who wouldn’t ask questions afterward.
Instead, he found a florist.
Marvin—beautiful, irritable, all quiet defiance and earth-stained hands—looks like the kind of man you ruin yourself on once and forget in the morning. That’s all Whizzer plans to do. Sleep with him. Move on.
But the night he stumbles into that flower shop—half-drunk, half-lost—the air smells like lilacs and rain, and something in Whizzer stops. He keeps coming back for the flowers, for the quiet, for the way Marvin never asks who he is.
It’s only supposed to be physical.
It never is.Bookmarked by fourmenmarching

Summary
But he did wonder if anyone else was watching the way that Whizzer’s fingers grasped the ball, the way he’d absentmindedly lick his thumb before he’d knock down three batters in a row, or the way he took a moment to run his hands through his hair after he incidentally walked a batter. The dirt seemed to roll right off of him.
OR
Marvin and Whizzer are on rival professional baseball teams. A strained relationship. Heteronormative pressure. The slow burn of the century. Mediocre sex and good sex. If they get too intertwined - will they ruin it all?
* This is a rewrite of a story I wrote eight (8) years ago called "Playing Easy." There were a lot of things I feel could be expanded upon and clarified. Also I wrote it eight years ago. *

The Boy Who Failed Physics —On Purpose? by I_love_mitski13

Summary
Marvin loved the life he had—quiet. He loved not having to worry about anything beyond himself and a few close friends. No drama, no surprises.
He’d always believed success was a matter of control:if he didn’t have it, everything could collapse. And if something collapsed, it was because he hadn’t done enough. Because he’d been weak. Because he’d failed.
Losing control wasn’t just a mistake—it was the beginning of the end.
And yet, everything had fallen apart.
All thanks to Whizzer Brown.my attempt at a gay romcom, please read it. 👋
