    Summary

    It twists and clunks into place in her brain.

    No fucking way.

    "You're bisexual," Robin repeats, cautious and disbelieving. Like she might spook it off if she's too crass. "And—you knew?"

    It sounds blasphemous. Robin knows Steve. He was the straightest guy in Indiana until a sexuality crisis named Eddie Munson pinned him to the wall and held a broken bottle to his throat.

    But he says, "Yeah?" with an easy laugh, like it's the most obvious thing in the world.

    She's the one gaping. She doesn't have much motor control, but she knows she's gaping like goldfish because Steve's smile fades.

    Now he looked stunned. "Wait—you didn't know?"

    —Or, Steve is openly bisexual. This is news to everyone.

    Summary

    "I'll cry quieter."

    "Or you can cry with me here," he says, still looking at the floor. "You don't have to talk about... whatever it is. But just... Jesus, Nance, you're not completely alone."
