Summary
“I want to be with him. Up there, on land, as one of them - as a human. I don’t mean to sound ungrateful, but I’m just not meant to be cooped up in Bill’s palace, and especially not with my mother. I’m supposed to be up there,” Eddie continued, pointing up toward the surface. “I’ve known for so long, but it was all leading up to this. To him. Just knowing he’s out there… it makes it that much more unbearable to be,” he gestured to his fin, “like this.”

Summary
When he’d found the kid at Walt’s otherwise unoccupied house some weeks later, ablaze with unchecked emotion and a fist-full of fire, he’d felt a tad more sympathetic; the evidence of Walt’s new brand of havoc alight in the kid’s every pained word and the cowed bow of his body. But even that had been fleeting. Less than a half hour later, Hank had Jesse caught between a rock and a hard spot, had obligated him to record a confession for which Pinkman would reap the consequences if they couldn’t make them stick to Walt. Hank had coerced the kid into staying in Hank's own home, under the guise of protecting him, when really, it was only Hank who stood to gain anything from illegally holding the kid against his will and drugging him into oblivion to ensure he’d cooperate and give the desired performance the next day.

Summary
“C’mon, do it,” Jesse whined as he tilted his hips.
Walt ran his hands along Jesse’s thighs. “I don’t know what to do,” he was forced to admit.
“Uh, you stick it in?” Walt could almost hear him rolling his eyes. “Didn’t you, like, father children?”
“That’s not what I meant,” Walt snapped back. “I don’t want to hurt you,” he added more quietly.
Jesse stared up at him. It was too dark for Walt to make out his expression, especially without his glasses. “Since when have you cared about that?”
Season 3 AU. Walt agrees to let Jesse stay with him after rehab, but he’s caught off guard when Jesse moves from the couch to his bed. As their affair heats up, Walt thinks he'll be able to win Skyler back and keep Jesse on the side—but Jesse's got other plans.

Summary
He fingers the glass vial in his pocket. Contemplates the half-empty bottle left carelessly beside his partner’s haphazard pile of street clothes – some sort of lurid, neon-colored energy drink; carbonated, with a strong taste of its own – and makes his decision.
It’s for Jesse’s own good.
(He tells himself this, and believes it. It’s the truth.)
And what he doesn’t know won’t hurt him.
--
An alternate take on the plot of S4, starting from Shotgun/Cornered. Rather than trying to poison Gus, Walt takes a different sort of drastic action to maintain his hold on Jesse.

Summary
Nacho definitely remembered dying.
He remembered holding a gun to Bolsa’s head, knowing that even if he pulled the trigger, he would be gunned down in an instant.
He hadn’t wanted to give those assholes the satisfaction of shooting him. He did it himself.
He thought he might remember being dead. There was definitely a sense that time had passed. But… his death had been quick. There was no light at the end of a tunnel; his life hadn’t flashed before his eyes. He had pulled the trigger, and then he was gone. He hadn’t even had time to register the sound of the gunshot.
But when he finally managed to claw his way out of the dirt that covered him, he was alone. No Salamancas, no Fring and his goons, no Bolsa.
And there was a sense of… blackness, he supposed. Like when you wake up after sleeping; even when you can’t remember any dreams, your mind knows that time has passed.
It felt a little like that.
(Nacho wakes up in the desert more than four years after his death. With the Salamancas' iron grip on the drug trade gone, he meets Jesse Pinkman and Walter White.)
