    Summary

    Martin feels so nervous that he’s almost dizzy with it. He desperately wants to turn tail and run, to call this whole thing off. Except for how he knows he’d be mad at himself for weeks afterwards for doing it, maybe even months. He’s spent so long working himself up to this; is he seriously not even going to try? 

    Even though it’ll probably go terribly? a pessimistic voice in the back of his head chimes in. 

    “This is going to go great,” Martin mutters underneath his breath. “Just grand. Nothing’ll go wrong, you’ll see.” 

    He feels a flash of self consciousness, but none of the other passengers give him so much as a glance for muttering to himself, all of them either hiding away in headphones and earbuds or just dead eyed glazed over expressions as they stare blankly into the middle distance. None of them even suspect that he’s on his way to a kink club. 

    -

    Martin and Jon have a very different first meeting.

    Summary

    "Who the hell are you?" Jon could feel his hands shaking.
    The man laughed, taking a step forward and raising a hand to point at him.
    "I'm you, from the future!" he said, then swayed, eyes going unfocused, and collapsed to the floor in a dead faint.

    Summary

    “That’s good, because I’m really only up for casual. Way easier. And if you wanted something more–”

    “Er, no–”

    “– I’m just saying, we should probably do dinner first? Just a burger or something, you know?”

    “No, that won’t be–” Jon clears his throat. "That isn’t necessary."

    Summary

    “Oh, you’re one to talk about stereotypes,” she retorts, grinning through her fake indignation. “Little miss lip piercing, enamel pins, combat boots in the summer—

    “Alright, alright, I know, I’m the world’s most predictable dyke—”

    “Not to mention the blue hair,” Georgie finishes, and reaches up to tuck a cobalt-dyed strand behind her ear.

    Melanie’s words stumble to a halt in her mouth.

    Summary

    “Doing the dishes?” Martin murmurs in his ear. Jon can smell the cheap rosemary scent of his shampoo, wafting from his still-wet hair, and the sweet mint of his toothpaste. “I would’ve done them with you, if you’d waited.”

    “I wanted to,” Jon murmurs back. “You made dinner, it’s only fair.”

    He can feel Martin’s smile as he says, “Well, thank you, sweetheart, you didn’t have to do that,” and leans down to kiss the back of his neck.

    “Huh? Oh. Sorry.” He’s quiet for a second, and then Martin sees him frown, barely. “You know what. Nevermind. I’m not.” His hand settles back at Martin’s hip, thumb passing through the silvery lines there. “Tell your insecurities to fuck off, I like your stretch marks.”

    MARTIN: Yeah. Has Melanie been talking about me?
    GEORGIE: Oh, um ... Jon used to go on about you a lot.
    - MAG 149

    Summary

    "She’s taking a sip, dry and sharp on her tongue, when the doorbell rings a floor above, and she hears distantly Steve’s open delight, Robin, Dustin, back from the shit I won’t understand?

    I’m a lesbian, Nancy thinks, taking another sip of wine. Eddie clinks his glass against hers and sneaks a slice of chorizo from Steve’s chopping board, tapping a finger against the side of his nose, shh, don’t tell, the way normal couples keep their secrets, the way honesty is earned and not borne on the back of a lie.

    Love is a battle I can win. Nancy turns to face the door."

    // Christmas 1994. Nancy faces her fears.

    Summary

    Robin narrows her eyes. “I’m sorry, do you think it’s undignified to dress like a woman? Is it because you think we’re so beneath you?”

    “I didn’t say that,” Steve says, pointing at her. “You're putting words in my mouth.”

    “Then what exactly is so bad about putting on a dress?”

    Summary

    “Hey, Harrington?” Robin called, smirking. Steve wanted to sigh, or maybe run away, but he straightened his back and gave her the flattest look he could manage. “Remember that favor you owe me?”

    “I don’t owe you a favor,” he replied immediately, although he had a sinking feeling that he did. It sounded familiar.

    “I recall you agreeing to the bet a while back that you didn’t think the kids considered you a part of their group,” she reminded him. The smirk hadn’t left her face. “And after the whole… moving in with the Byers thing, it’s definitely been proven that you’re a part of their group. I dare you to say that you’re not in front of them.”

     

    (AKA 3 times Steve was coerced into being Robin's "boyfriend", + 1 time he did it without being prompted.)

    Summary

    Religion! Horror! Exorcisms! Piercings! And Gerard is a priest.

    Disclaimer: I stole frequently and unrepentantly from Joss Whedon and the makers of various horror movies throughout this whole series. Also I am not an expert on the Vatican or medical-type things, so please accept my apologies in advance for all the wild inaccuracies I am sure you are about to encounter. If everyone could just assume this is the Magical Made-Up Vatican, you know, like the religious institution version of those tour buses that drive themselves and don't carry anyone but the band, that would be awesome.

    Summary

    “It appears there’s a clear sexual tension between us. Do you need me to do something for you?” Abed asks, voice steady and without hesitation.

    And Troy isn’t gay. He’s really not. But this arrangement just seems incredibly practical for the both of them.

    (Or, five times when Troy and Abed do less-than-platonic stuff, and one time when they've got it all figured out.)
