Summary
Frank keeps his tone as even as possible, even if he feels his brows furrow down. “Are you cheating on me?”
Ray stops in his tracks, his keys clattering against Frank’s in the bowl they keep on their dresser. “... What?” He manages to laugh.
Frank sneers, grabbing the Mary Janes from behind him and throwing them underhanded towards Ray. They tumble over, one landing on Ray’s boot and forcing him to step back. “Whose are these?!”
--
A misunderstanding leads to an admission, which helps Frank learn something about Ray—and himself.

Summary
It was a step. Ownership. It wasn’t something either of them wanted to bridge into with a nylon collar and leash from PetSmart. This looked like it would be something personal, custom that Gerard had commissioned while Frank had assumed that the topic had been forgotten between the years of tension.
“You know what it is?” Gerard prompts when the silence stretches on for far too long.
“Collar,” he says dumbly.
--
Gerard is occupied, and Frank is desperate for his attention. He'll get it, even if it's not exactly how he imagined.

Summary
“You wanna kiss about it first?” Jet asks, and Ghoul can’t tell if they’re being genuine or mocking.
“Shut the fuck up,” he says, an answer to both cases. It draws a laugh out of Jet anyway, and one long finger lines up and presses inside of him in a quick movement.
“Can’t help yourself, huh?” They hum, slipping a second finger inside when the first gives way too easily. Both fingers provide a pleasant stretch, a shuddering gasp pressing out of Ghoul’s lungs. “I think I’ll get you to shut up, though.”
--
Jet Star and Fun Ghoul are talented at many things, but sometimes they specialize in getting under each other's skin.

Summary
“Do you like it?” Somehow, he’s still talking.
“Like what?”
“...Being a nurse.”
“Yes.”
Frank glances to the side. “When did you, um, start?”
“Two thousand and one. After I watched the Towers fall.” She still hasn’t looked up from her clipboard.
_Or, Frank starts to get sick after XØ drops and ends up in a strange hospital with a stranger nurse.

Summary
It came naturally to him. Being sultry and mysterious enough to draw them in, charming enough to keep them around. And his companion was falling for it hook, line, and sinker. A tall, broad-shouldered ally strong enough to fling around his enemies as if they were gnats. He had him wrapped around his finger, and everything was going according to plan.
Then why does Astarion feel so bad about it?
