Summary
Nick and Jay are finally together after a lot of pining and heartache, but now they gotta face their next hurdle-- kissing without getting weird about it.
Direct sequel to the first two, but especially inaccurate conclusions-- more direct exploration of neurodivergence and asexuality in a committed relationship between these dorks. Alsoooooo perspective shifts each chapter we get the nick AND jay views, people.

Summary
"I can buy you the whole damn city, old sport; anything you can possibly dream of," Gatsby whispers feverishly into Nick's ear, pressing a kiss to the other man's temple. "The New Amsterdam Theatre, Central Park Zoo, even....hell, even Lady Liberty, baby."
Nick laughs and shakes his head, the liquor still warm in his throat and causing the world around him to spin too fast. If it weren't for Gatsby's arms around his waist, he'd surely be laying in a heap on the ground.
"You don't need to buy me anything, Jay," he insists softly, feeling as if he's said such a thing too many times to count now.
"But I could. I could buy-"
Nick shakes his head again, turning around in Gatsby's arms and silencing him with a a lopsided smile and a sloppy kiss.
"You could, yes, but you don't have to. In fact...in fact you could sell this grand palace of yours, Jay, and....and lose all of your damned money in the stock market, and I'd still want you."
Gatsby doesn't respond, looking torn between disbelief and tears.

Summary
The dead man’s trembling hands tapped together in a constant rhythm. His eyes darted between me, the room behind me, his own feet. It was when he added to these constant movements a shuffling of the feet that I knew he was no ghost. This inimitable animation, neverending movement of thought and body, was a quality of his that no corpse could ever embody.
Nick Carraway has been mourning Gatsby for nearly two years, when a very much alive Jay shows up at his doorstep. Feelings and shenanigans ensue.

Summary
Fireworks erupted. Scattered spectacles of colour and sound embellished the air, neon facsimile of war. Gatsby shuddered. The towering walls of his own home weren't enough to protect him, nor the blankets he yanked tight to himself, a shield of cotton and linen. Nothing was.

Summary
Gatsby really was beautiful. He slicks his hair in the morning with his favorite comb, a gift I gave him some time ago. He spends almost ten minutes every day just picking a suit since he’s too indecisive about which one to wear for the day. His eyes were a soft brown, so simple and even simpler to get lost in them. No. I shouldn’t.

Summary
I have always been inclined to reserve all judgments, a habit that has opened up many curious natures to me and also made me the victim of not a few veteran bores; but even I have limits, and that afternoon, as the clock in my home traced a languid path toward three, I found myself judging Gatsby.
He had missed luncheon.
Now, there are men who miss appointments as they miss trains—casually, with the shrug of one accustomed to the world adjusting itself around them. Gatsby was not such a man. He possessed, instead, a species of attentiveness that made one feel singular in his presence, as though he had cleared a space in the firmament solely for you to stand in. If he said he would meet you at one, he arrived at twelve-fifty with a smile already prepared. If he was detained, some explanation—charming, elaborate, faintly improbable—would arrive in his stead. Silence did not belong to him.
When Gatsby fails to show up to lunch, Nick gets worried and goes to check on him. Turns out Gatsby's business is more dangerous than Nick knew.

You can’t repeat the past (so stay in the present with me) by Loganisbored

Summary
A rewrite of the 'you can't repeat the past scene' from the movie. Gatsby gets that hug he so clearly needs
"That’s when Nick noticed it, the small waver in Gatsby’s voice, the slight tremble in his hand as he chucked the bottle .He was genuinely upset about something, clearly fighting down an internal panic. Nick had never seen him look more human; it was beautiful in a strange, twisted way. The vanishing of the playboy and the appearance of the man."
