   Summary

   It's just a typical day for Blue and Charon while working on Project Purity. A bad dream and access to a terminal with all the answers he could ever want sends Blue into a distressed state. He wants to find the G.E.C.K., he wants to free Charon of his contract, he wants to make his parents proud.

   Slight AU (as in when/how the LW finds the G.E.C.K.). This one is packed to the brim with angst cuz apparently that's my m.o. now. Still fluffy and gay as hell tho.
