Summary
As Robby lifts his shirt up, Dennis is overcome with the need to bury his face in his armpit until he passes out. The gold chain with its Star of David that he always wears rests just below his collar. As Robby strips off, Dennis allows himself a longing look.
Yeah, Dennis admits to himself, he’s down pretty bad.
He’s certain that the fishing trips his brothers took with their dad didn’t have this additional complication – that of the man taking them being so hot they’d want to cry. Trinity’s comment, ‘daddy wants to take you to the woodshed,’ bounces around in Dennis’s head.
-Robby takes Dennis out on a fishing trip. Neither of them expected it to end this way.

Summary
Robby pulls a face. “Remind me why I ever thought confiding in you was a good idea?”
Jack laughs. “You didn’t confide in me. I deduced it because I have eyes, and you didn’t deny it when I asked. I’m more curious why no one else seems to have picked up on your miserable yearning.”

Summary
He thinks very little about the night of the assault. He thinks far too much about the morning after, about Robby’s hand on his wrist, Robby’s arm around his shoulder, Robby’s mouth against his hair, Robby’s fingers sliding a needle into his vein.
He wonders if a therapist would call that a trauma response or a coping mechanism, and decides that he much prefers not knowing what they would say.

Summary
When she'd gone to Robby, she wonders whether he'd been able to smell the desperation buried beneath her hesitance, the overwhelming stench of decaying need giving itself away. Believe me, believe me, believe me. It's all she'd ever wanted. Maybe no one had to die this time.
Or: Trinity Santos rediscovers the meaning of team.

Summary
The first couple of dollars that the machine ate up without remorse were an annoyance, something that made Dennis sigh and unzip his wallet without thinking about it to try again. By the time that the vending machine had eaten seven whole dollars, in coins, and Dennis didn’t have anything to show for it, he was close to thumping his forehead against the cool glass and hoping he could derive some sort of enjoyment or nourishment from simply just looking at the colourful packages as they remained firmly in their coils.
He didn’t often carry coins. Those were his last few dollars and he was woefully aware that somebody had offhandedly mentioned that the staffroom vending machine destroyed notes, so he wasn’t going to be getting a soda, a bag of chips or anything else that might settle his belly from the incessant grumbling it was doing.
~
5 times + 1 that Robby buys something for Dennis and makes him feel like he's about to keel over, right there and then.
