    Summary

    The first time Ford hugged Stan in forty years, he didn't respond.
    The second time, he flinched away.

    A brief somewhat angsty view of when Stan is still recovering his memories post-Weirdmageddon, and with some guilty!Ford rearing its ugly head.

    Summary

    Even when they finally go to sea, Stan is not very good at being kind to himself, or letting anyone else be kind to him.
    Ford tries his hardest to fix that.

    Written out of annoyance that a few years ago this one writer who went by the moniker peachypeachers, and later changed to todorokees (if I'm remembering correctly) wrote a really good fic in this vein called "Deeply, Deeply Screwed Up," and then wound up deleting it along with their account altogether. This isn't exactly the same, obviously, since that would be plagiarism, but I prefer to think of it as a kind of homage to that one's beauty.

    Thinking I'll only do about five of these, but I might do more if I get inspired.

    Summary

    Benton lifts an eyebrow. “What is this?” He gestures at John’s splayed-out form on the exam table, shirt undone and pulled up almost to his shoulders. Needles in his back. John feels a brief flush of self-consciousness. He’s quite exposed.

    Stanley answers for him. “I was helping Doctor Carter with his back pain,” the younger man explains, while John tries to gather himself.

    “His back pain,” Benton repeats, eyes narrowed.

    Oh, Christ, John thinks.

    OR: Carter and Benton have a much-needed conversation about addiction and chronic pain. Set in Season 8.

    Summary

    Burning, searing, white-hot agony spreads from his right shoulder until it’s all-consuming, and a howl is torn from his throat, raw and rough, tearing at his throat like ripping off a scab, and he barely registers the boot is still pinning him, he wouldn’t have been able to move anyway, his muscles locked up, and all he can do is scream-

    ---------

    Stan doesn't get up after being branded.
