Summary
It's been four years since he met Dennis Whitaker. Three years since he's last seen him. Two years since Robby finally admitted he couldn't live without him. And one year of holding himself back from looking for him.
One thousand, one hundred and nineteen days.
That's how long it took before Robby decided he needed to at least be near him.

Summary
“We do not take even our own observations quite seriously, or accept them as scientific observations, until we have repeated and tested them. Only by such repetitions can we convince ourselves that we are not dealing with a mere isolated ‘coincidence,’ but with events which, on account of their regularity and reproducibility, are in principle inter-subjectively testable.”
Popper, K. (1959). The Logic of Scientific Discovery. Harper & Row.

Summary
There’s a beat of supremely awkward silence.
"I've offended you,” Armand says. “My apologies. I crossed a line.”
Yeah, you fucking did.
“No, that’s – it’s fine. I’ll just need my accountant to crunch the numbers on that one, is all.”
Jesus H. Christ, Molloy, what are you doing, you absolute nutjob?
In which Daniel's best customer asks to meet in person.

Summary
When Viktor finally asks why Jayce stayed behind inside the Anomaly with him, Jayce stares at him as though he’s supremely disappointed by the question— as if Viktor has betrayed his own brilliance by asking something so irredeemably stupid. “How could I not? We’re partners.”
Partners, Jayce calls them. Not for the first time, Viktor wonders: Partners in what?
*
Or: Jayce and Viktor survive the Hexcore, a blizzard, their own bodies, sharing a bed and all the things they’re too afraid to say. Slowly, they put themselves back together— piece by stubborn piece.

Summary
"We at the Theraprism are happy to tell you that your spouse is safe and healthy.”
“I don’t have a spouse.” Said Ford.
“Yes, you do.” The entity pulled out a holographic binder. “Here, I have the paperwork."
Ford, suddenly assaulted by ghosts of lost, alcohol-soaked, hazy, whisp-like memories circling in the periphery of his mind, went deathly pale and had to take a step back to lean his weight against the cash-counter.
“I- That- That cannot have been legally binding!"
Or: Stanley Pines isn't the only one in the Pines family to get blackout drunk and married on a whim.

Summary
"Is he not so perfect in death?" the Urge had whispered. They had been staring at it, at its deep blue skin, at the strange handsomeness of its face, and Enver had felt...
Jealousy. He had felt jealous of the thing. Of a corpse.
The Dark Urge makes an off-hand comment about corpses, and Enver, not to be outdone, makes a plan.
Based off of this comic by haunted-dot on tumblr.

Summary
Except for a select few, mages within the empire are treated like little more than a commodity for the politicians. Few of the common folk ever encounter a mage, as their skills are solely employed by the crown and rogues are ruthlessly hunted and killed. With peace being brokered with their Xhorhasian enemies, the Empire decides to gift their prized Archmage to the Mighty Nine as a sign of their commitment to making the peace last.
OR
Caleb needs all the hugs and Trent will get what’s coming to him.
