    Summary

    They aren’t his family, not in the traditional sense. But the idea that they might be, that they could be, unsettles him more than he wants to admit. It’s the same quiet dread that hit him when Collins said he had helped raise Amy. He doesn’t know why exactly. Maybe because imagining them as a family implies imagining him and Jack as something. And that’s just absurd, right?

    Or: Robby has been a quiet constant in the lives of Abbot and his daughter, filling a space that was never clearly named. As they drift into their fifties, he begins to recognize that his feelings for Jack may have deepened into something real and perhaps impossible. Now he’s left wondering if this almost-family could ever truly be his.

    Summary

    There was only so many times Dennis could reject Mac. It was too much, to keep living through the same tiresome routine year after year.

    So Dennis moved out.

    But Mac wanted him back. He wanted to make Dennis jealous — that's where Charlie came in.

    ***

    "I've got a crazy idea," Mac announced. "What if, hypothetically, Dennis does like me back, and if I wanna win him back, I've gotta make him jealous?"

    "I dunno, dude. I think that's a reach." Charlie shrugged.

    "What if we pretended to be in love?"

    Charlie practically goddamn choked on his coffee, putting the mug down as his eyes bulged wide and his face turned red. He felt his heart stop dead, but couldn't place why. "What?! What the hell would that do?"

    Summary

    He wants to wrap himself around Mac like a python buries its prey in its inescapable, deadly embrace. With his chest against Mac’s back and his face against his nape, he wants to press closer and closer until he can sink his claws into his very bones and seep his poison into his veins and Mac can never, ever walk away from him without tearing himself apart in the process. He wants to stay like this until they both die.

    Mac lets out a pleased, half-asleep hum and lovingly puts his own hands on Dennis’ fists that are grasping the front of his old T-shirt so vehemently they’re almost shaking.

    Summary

    “So are we, like, doing this?”

    “Doing what.” Frank is at the bar, obviously, because he always is, and says this through a mouthful of peanuts.

    “Nothing,” Dennis says quickly. “We are doing,” he looks at Mac, “Nothing.”

    “Okay, but like,” Mac leans in and says in a voice that he clearly thinks is quieter, though it is, in fact, not any quieter at all, “Are we?”

    --

    Dennis hates himself, Mac pretends to date him, plans fall apart.

    Summary

    Because he can't go without saying it any further:

    “I’m in love with him,” Poe admits sometime in the air, his voice crackling over the comms.

    And he doesn’t know why but he thinks she'd be smiling at him, now, proud that he could—say it out loud, in the least. Her words are grainy when it carries back to him, but somehow they ring clear in his head: “he’s a good man, Poe."
