"Well," Stella panted, as Fraser shuddered and sank down, exhausted, against the softness of her body, "that was nice."

Bookmarker's Notes
Ray stopped, shook his head sadly, tsked. "That's like a talk show story, Fraser; you could go on a talk show with that, you and Stella, and the audience would throw fruit at you and love me. I would be, like, the hero, brain-damage and everything.

After watching The Drop and reading Dennis Lehane's Animal Rescue, I wanted more "Bob hangs out with a puppy" time. Hence this fic.

Bookmarker's Notes
Some things were built to last no matter how hard you pounded at them. Bob felt out through the house and there was Rocco, who was small and felt the cold and knew what it meant to be hit and left alone. Rocco, who had a name now and when Bob said it, looked up at him like Bob was the most important thing in the world.

Dutch stood over him, hands on her hips. "And you were going to do what? Adopt the lot of them? Move in and be their big brother? Every single one of those whores was ready for you to be their personal hero, John. Every night, they dream of a guy like you coming in to sweep them up and save them, and if you try to do that with every victim you meet, you will end up burned out and useless."

He takes her hand over the gearshift, and she thinks anyone else, she'd break their wrist, but she turns her hand over and squeezes, watches the dashes and lines of the paint on the road without saying anything else.

The pitcher's park was a canvas waiting tonight. The bombastic, beautiful spread of it, which in the darkening half of the sunset hours glowed the warm and pinkening blue of a ripe blueberry. This was home, now, too. She hadn't wanted to be back here, not like this. But things looked different now. Things could be different, with the most minute adjustments in where you were.

Meditation #4: Imagine that you have a magic potion that forces everyone around you to be completely open an honest. Everyone is embarrassed at what they reveal to you, but you handle it gracefully since for the most part, you knew it all along.

Summary
"You. Got a haircut?" It was more of a question than Finn meant it to be. He took in Poe's rumpled jumpsuit and the blurry rust-colored scratch on his temple and swallowed the phrase 'Holy stars, *what*?' out of recognition for how many witnesses were within earshot.

Finn didn't say anything, just took the bag from him and shook his head in the manner of a person so put-upon it was a miracle the scoundrel in question could be tolerated.

The day Simon put her baby in her arms--hers and Wash's--six months to the day, ship-time, after Miranda--Zoe had few ticks where she blamed herself for not being able to see how having a man and being tied down weren't the same thing, as though that had been what had done Wash in.
