Summary
Patrick Bateman has good days. Bad days. Terrible fucking days. Largely a plethora of terrible ones. He wades through the blood of each week, and wakes again, like a horrible ancient being of Hell to another Monday. This is his penance, he thinks. I have done nothing wrong, he thinks. I have died years ago and this is atonement, he thinks.
Paul and Patrick, four months in the making, decide unmaking is just as good as it gets. Paul's a lover, Pat's a loverboy. Do you have an I feel statement to go with that?

Summary
"Do my men really have nowhere else to be? Or have you been assigned to decorating the corridor?"
Captain Price stood a few feet away, arms crossed over his chest, a single eyebrow raised. He didn't look angry; in fact, there was a distinct glint of amusement in his eyes. He'd clearly caught some of their nonsense.
"Just discussing operational logistics, Captain," Ghost said smoothly, not missing a beat.
or: Price’s boys are a handful... but one of them, in particular, he can't get enough of.

Summary
“That time I was in hospital,” Kyle began, his voice deliberately even. “After the grenade.”
John looked up, his expression guarded. He gave a slow, cautious nod. They didn’t talk about that often.
“The doctors needed decisions. And I had no one. No next of kin. They had to convene a board. It was… clinical.”
John’s face had softened, the frustration from earlier replaced by a pained understanding. “Kyle…”
Kyle waved an impatient hand. “I’m not asking for a church wedding, John. I’m talking about a piece of paper. At a registry office. So if one of us ends up in a hospital, the other isn’t just… some guy. So we have the right to be there.”
or: a death in the family reminds Kyle of the importance of formalising their bond. Unfortunately, John might not be as open to it as Kyle hoped.

Summary
John ordered a whisky, a decent single malt. He’d earned the good stuff, even if the reason for drinking it today felt pathetic.
He sank two, then a third, the warmth doing little to dispel the chill of irrelevance that had settled in his bones. The maudlin thoughts, usually kept behind a stout lock, began to seep out. He was fifty-five. A retired soldier. A civilian. A man buying biscuits for his younger, still-serving partner who was God-knows-where doing God-knows-what. A man so sidelined, he was drinking alone on his own fucking birthday.
or: John adjusts to civilian life, badly. He and Kyle settle into a new dynamic... which also has room for improvement.
