    Planning has never really been in the Close vocabulary.

    Serious conversations haven't, either.

    Summary

    Listen. I am guilty of the convenient room-splitting convention, and it's my responsibility to provide some character growth to the inhabitants of the ever-elusive Other Room.
    Basically this could have been funny but I wrote the first pass at midnight and I started to Project.

    Summary

    It takes Henry a while to wake up. Ron tried to shake him awake when Henry’s dad first left, but whatever magic he used to knock Henry out must have been too strong. The bed Henry's on looks comfortable enough, at least. And the ground next to it isn't cold, so Ron doesn't mind sitting here to wait.

    Henry's not doing great, lads.

    Summary

    “Dad,” Nick suddenly whimpers, clutching onto his father with trembling arms. “Dad, I feel really sick,” the child echoes the words he said that morning all those years ago. That same day Glenn decided he wasn’t cut out for comfort and handed Nick off to someone else.

    No. You’re not doing that again.

    --Or--

    a couple years between Morgan's death and the journey in The Forgotten Realms, Nick gets sick and Glenn isn't there to help. Now, two years after returning home, Nick wakes up with a fever and Glenn decides he's gonna be who both himself and his father weren't in the past.

    Tony’s the anchor. Tony’s the anchor, and Scary knows that, and Scary tells Willy everything, and if Scary took the keyfob–
    Willy doesn’t look at them so Normal can’t see his face when he says, “just say the word.”
    “Go ahead,” Scary says.
    “Okay,” Willy says, far too chipper for whatever’s about to happen, and strides to the kitchen and pulls a knife from the rack.
    Normal watches, frozen, as seemingly in slow-motion Willy goes up to Tony and stabs him, blade going straight through Tony’s throat.
    ---
    Normal deals with the breakage of the first anchor.

    Summary

    “Yeah okay, thank you Darryl.” Carol says, swinging her bag over onto her shoulder. “Talk to Mr. Walker about getting a new tutor or something, Close, I can’t work with you.” Glenn sits up quickly.

    “What- are you kidding me? You’re ditching me because I got mad you were snooping around in my business? How is that reasonable?” Glenn retorts, angry now. If he didn’t at least have a steady tutor thing going on than Jodie would actually learn to lay off with his grades. Part of Glenn was doing it so Jodie would stop annoying him and part of him was doing it because…well he could see the look Jodie was giving him while reading his report card. Dad wasn’t home, he didn’t give a shit otherwise, and Mom wasn’t answering calls and she wanted nothing to do with them now. Glenn wasn’t disappointed about that, he wasn’t he really wasn’t.

    Summary

    That feeling dwindles when he stands up in the front office and sees Jodie, his older brother, talking to the front desk lady. He glares as Jodie notices him. He’s wearing his uniform for the Dairy Queen he works at, but his hat and apron are off so at least he doesn't look like an idiot. He’s smiling politely at the woman behind the desk as she makes him sign something.

    “Why are you here?” Glenn asks, tugging at the straps of his backpack. He’s shaking a little from anger and how dizzy he feels from the fever. Jodie looks over and his eyebrows settle into the usual furrow.

    “The school called home when I got back from work,” He explains. He looks Glenn over in a way that pisses him off more.

    Summary

    “Dad doesn't give a shit if we’re late,” Glenn says, and Jodie glares at him. Jodie’s an adult now, which is a weird thing for Glenn to wrap his head around. He knows that Jodie is older, a six year difference, and considering Glenn is 12, it makes logical sense. But Jodie doesn't act like an adult, he’s so fucking annoying and whiney it's stupid. Glenn has always hated his brother, he gets onto him about literally everything he does, it's way more annoying than Mom. At least she tries to pretend like she likes it when Glenn is visiting her house.

    “Glenn, language.” The woman in question scolds from where she stands at the counter in the kitchen. Jodie is standing near the front door, his arms folded over his chest and his satchel bag is on his hip as well as his duffle bag that he always takes to Mom’s house. Glenn still hasn't packed, too busy listening to his new record that he got with money from selling the laser pointers that Dad gave him.

    Summary

    Sparrow's face scrunches up. “Lark bought about 200 dollars worth of krill on the Metaverse marketplace, got very drunk and spent last night asking the wikiwhale about art.”

    “Art?” Grant asks, “How does that even work?” He looks down at his phone where fuzzy images of trees and bright boxes create a long wall of texts from Lark. He should have realized Lark was drunk by the more-than-usual misspellings and bad photography. He should talk to him more often.

    Or

    A series of one-shots of the season 2 daddies trying to deal with their messed up life. A sort of off-season Whumptober if you will.

    Summary

    “Is she having a problem with it?” he asks. There’s a lot of problems someone could have with that house, though not many you would only notice after twelve years. “Did my dad forget to tell you about all his bootleg DVDs?”

    It’s a genuine question, but Silas laughs. “Nothing like that, kid, don’t worry,” he says, which makes Glenn wonder what actually happened to all those DVDs when Bill left. “Nah, it’s just — she’s moving out soon. Wants to be with her mom, back east. But, uh, she found some things she thought you might want to take a look at. See if they were your dad’s, and if you wanted to keep it in the family, so to speak.”

    “Oh,” Glenn says.

    Or, Glenn and Nick visit Bill's old house.

    Summary

    “Again with the school girls, dude? It’s not selling the whole ‘not a creep thing’”
    “No one thinks I’m a creep. I’m super cool”
    “Sure you are, champ, that’s why this place is crawling with ladies on a Saturday night”
    Taylor turned to look at her
    “Well, you’re here, so what does that say about you?”
    “Nothing good,” She muttered.

     

    When their other friends bail on movie night, Taylor and Scary are left alone to watch bad anime, and it's honestly pretty awkward. A stuipid fight escalates in a way neither of them anticipated.

    Summary

    Lincoln sat up, too. Damn it. “Are you okay?”

    “Yeah,” Scary said, aiming for nonchalant but landing somewhere closer to dismissive. She fished around for any lie that sounded less pathetic than the truth. “My stomach kinda hurts. Girl stuff. I’m fine.”

    “Okay,” Link conceded. After a moment’s hesitation, he asked, “Were you crying?”

    Three nightmares, and three conversations Scary and Lincoln have after.
