    Summary

    “Shot in the back? By Buford Tannen?” Emmett read aloud, his voice steadily raising in pitch to a kind of wild panic. “Over a matter of a hundred dollars? I don’t owe him that kind of money!”

    “Well, it’s a few days away,” said Clara helpfully. “Maybe it hasn’t happened yet.”

    "Erected by his dear friend Martin McFly.” He sounded pretty affronted. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

    “Oh – I assumed he was a friend of yours. You don’t know him?”

    “No, I don’t know a Martin. I’ve avoided making any close personal connections. My presence here is already enough of a risk to the timeline, I can’t take the chance of interfering too heavily in anyone’s life. Say I –”

    “That sounds awfully lonely.”

    After traveling to the year 1885 to save her friend, high school science teacher Clara Clayton finds herself trapped in the past. As they prepare for their risky plan to go back to the future, they witness the local outlaw conducting a hanging. Suddenly their lives are intertwined with that of Marty McFly, local nuisance, who according to history should be dead - and pretty soon they find themselves facing an impossible choice...

    Summary

    He'll just keep his head down and get on with his life, like he always has.

    A solid plan, if not for the unaccounted for variable that Neil Perry, his roommate, turns out to be. His roommate. Not even Nolan's comment about Todd having big shoes to fill invoke the same surety of doom as Neil Perry.

    Or, Welton ends up being so much more than Todd Anderson ever signed up for. But maybe, he doesn't hate it as much as he'd expected to. And maybe, he even falls in love along the way.

    (Or, or, I meant to write a short anderperry getting together fic and blacked out and ended up rewriting like half the movie but the gay is text instead of subtext.)
