Summary
You’re a screamer, Austin had said. It was important that he didn't say: You're a toddler who can't regulate his emotions.
There was so much chaos inside Craig, and he was always on the verge of bursting. It took a staggering amount of effort to contain it, to keep it in, all the frigging time.

Summary
“You can’t—” Vincent starts to say before abruptly stopping. Eddie watches, with detached amusement, as Vincent’s face turns a mottled pink. Staring resolutely at his socked feet, Vince finishes, “You can’t just put your hands on me like that.”
Eddie runs back through their evening. Dinner and showers and discussion of the next day’s events. Earlier, breakfast at a deli, the hall, and— oh.
Oh.
“Why?” Eddie says, giddy. Knows full well his mouth is running away from him. Dangerous, Eddie. “‘Cause it makes you want me to do it again?”Series

Summary
"Just as 2010: Odyssey Two was not a direct sequel to 2001: A Space Odyssey, so this book is not a linear sequel to 2010. They must all be considered as variations on the same theme, involving many of the same characters and situations, but not necessarily happening in the same universe." Arthur C. Clarke in the introduction to 2061.
A fic which takes place in one of the many parallel universe versions of the 2001 canon.
