Summary
“Mr. Grace, do you have a girlfriend?” Aria called out, which resulted in a cascade of laughter and jeering. Grace, despite four years of practice, was blindsided by this blow and floundered to come up with a rejoinder.
“Uh,” He gurgled into the microphone, an idiot wearing three pairs of glasses, “No, I do not.”
Or: Middle School Science Teacher Ryland Grace accidentally falls in love.

Summary
“I’m- I can’t convince myself to commit to a longer stay,” Robby admits, frustrated by it. “It’d be better for actually getting somewhere with antidepressants, I know, but I feel like once I take away the work and the bike and everything else I do… there’s a clock on how long I can be naked like that. When it runs out, if I’m not back on the right side, I’ll get stuck as nothing, forever.” Robby drops his face into his hand. “Why does this sound like The Little Mermaid?” he moans.
“Is this the kind of place where they throw a black bag over your head and smash your SIM card, or can I still talk to you?” Jack asks.
~After a scare on his road trip, Robby does two weeks of inpatient care in Wisconsin... and you'll never guess who he uses his phone time on~

Summary
Ghost has been hard at work tackling his aversion to touch since the 141 came together. He’d been irate the first time Soap and Gaz tried casually throwing an arm around him. He had felt repulsed, nauseous, scared…
Warm. Comforted.
It took him a few weeks to admit to himself and his therapist that physical touch was a love language he has been severely starved of.
Thankfully it’s a language that his squad is annoyingly fluent in. More often than not he loves being close to his team now.
Only Soap has this strange ability to make him crave more, though.
Featuring Ghost with a PTSD induced temperature regulation issue and Soap, who wants nothing more than to be used as a personal heater.Bookmarked by sghostriley

Summary
Darnell nodded, glancing over Robby like he was trying to place him in the hierarchy of important to ignorable and it could go either way. "What's this?"
"MSF FNG," Jack shot back. Whatever that meant, he sounded amused.
Darnell scoffed and looked to Robby, expression going decidedly unimpressed. "Oh, yeah? You here to find yourself? Have an adventure? Do something hard?" he asked, each question more mocking than the last.
And there was that question again, like it was haunting Robby. He stifled his instinct to bite back and kept it simple: "I'm here to help."

Summary
Do you think it all ends in flood, Robby wonders against the man’s carotid, or fire?
What?
I think hell is full of water. Maybe he’ll never know why other people’s mouths always taste better than his own. I think it’s everything we hope we’ve avoided, all the shit we tell ourselves we’re above caring about, drowning together in one big fucking bathtub.

Summary
It does not escape Robby that Jack is looking at him the way he looked at Milo’s clammy wrist. Measuring, unflinching, certain of what he’ll find. He tells himself that it isn’t personal. That it’s the look of someone who’s seen this ending before and wants to rewrite the third act.
Knowing all of that does not make it feel any less like a Y-incision.

Summary
When his doctor breaks the news to him, Robby can’t say he’s surprised.
He’s not an endocrinologist, but he had put his diagnosis together before even booking his appointment. The hot flashes that left him dazed and sweaty, the random bouts of tachycardia that for once were not anxiety induced, the migraines whenever he smelled something strong enough to break through the haze of his meds -- he put two and two together and realized the warning label on his suppressants finally caught up to him.

Summary
“Say you got married,” Robby found himself asking. “Would you wear your dress blues? Or civilian clothes?”
It had only been an idle thought, no different than any number of easy, directionless musings of the sort that often came over the two of them on mornings like this one, when no one had a shift to go to for at least thirty-six hours. Robby didn’t mean anything by it. But he regretted the words the instant they left his mouth, even before he saw the incredulous grin slide over Jack’s face.

The Effects of Touch Intervention in Contact-Averse Patients: A Case Study by malicecharity

Summary
"Robby’s just a little… skittish, you know?” McKay said, nodding slightly, affirming the unimpeachable truth she spoke.
Jack blinked. “What do you mean?”
She glanced into the patient's room, then back at Jack, a quick burst of skepticism crossing her face. “Look at him,” she urged gently. “He looks like he wants to run through the wall Looney-Tunes style just to escape a hand on his arm.”
A revealing chat with McKay brings up some unexpected questions for Jack regarding Robby's apparent aversion to touch. Being of a scientific mind, he can't abide by his previous oversight. Naturally the only course of action is to embark on a rigorous, methodical investigation into the matter. For the sake of curiosity, obviously. No other reason.

Summary
Jack never expected to fall in love again after losing his wife— not while raising a ten‑year‑old who needs structure, predictability, and a world that makes sense. But Robby fits into their lives with a gentleness Jack didn’t know he was allowed to want.
Wren isn’t sure how she feels about any of it. Change is hard. People are unpredictable. And families don’t always stay. But as routines shift, dinner times wobble, something new begins to take shape in their home — something fragile, chaotic, and unexpectedly right.
Wren and Jack both discover that sometimes the piece you didn’t expect is the one that finally makes everything fit.

Summary
"That suits you." Marla says and my head whips to her. She's smiling, looking me up and down with a grin. She's holding a .95 cent dress that will last her a few months and I'm wearing leather dyed the colour of blood that will last me the rest of my life. The feeling of it surrounding me almost reminds me of the feeling that Tyler gave me. That all encompassing warmth.
Marla makes a face at the price tag, but since I pay, she doesn't say anything else. I keep wearing it out of the shop, holding her bags of scraps. It feels like I'm finally in the skin that belongs to me. Like my whole life I was just muscle and blood leaking out onto the floor, and it is only now with the jacket surrounding me that I feel complete.

A happier (?) look at a canon compliant ending.
