    Summary

    “As for your current predicament… there may be something I can do to help.” Cas looks hesitant even as he says it, casting his eyes sidelong at Dean.

    Dean turns to him. “What d’you mean?”

    Castiel’s lips press into a thin line, all of the jovial glint gone from his eyes. “PTSD and trauma can alter pathways and connections in your brain, in a very physical way. Because these changes are physical… it may be possible to… heal them, in a sense.”

    “Heal my brain?” Dean shoots back incredulously.

    or the one where they finally talk about what cas said before the empty took him

    Summary

    Johnny moves his elbows out of chemical-spilling longitude. “How’s work going?”

    “Boring. Pass me the blue beaker?”

    “Mm, looks like Kool Aid. My day was great, thanks for asking.”

    “I didn’t, but okay.”

    “What did I do? Well, Peter, I went to my hot yoga class and looked very sexy while doing downward dog, and I reorganized my half of the closet to be color-coded because it was stressing me out, and I came up with a wonderful idea which will give us loads of happy bonding time to balance how many hours you spend pretending I don’t exist while you mix your magic potions and hocus pocus alleles all the way across town.”

    That gives Peter pause. He turns over his shoulder to meet Johnny’s eyes. “We see each other too much already,” he says. “We live together. You follow me on patrol. We spend half our time supine and naked.”

    “We’re going to pick up hobbies together,” Johnny says, and Peter cracks the beaker.

    Summary

    Time is soupy, on the beach. A minute is an hour, but an hour passes with Johnny’s every blink. He thinks he naps a little. He reads a few pages of The Goblet of Fire and then puts it away. He listens to three songs and then gives up on that. Johnny’s elbows-deep in a Buzzfeed quiz that’s going to tell him which Panera bread bowl he is when one of Peter’s knobby hands reaches over and starts tugging halfheartedly on the waistband of Johnny’s swimsuit.

    Johnny feels a disgusting, terrible smile burst across his face. He’s despicable. He should be locked up for this.

    “Morning,” he says.

    Peter blinks a little, all cow-like hazel eyes and confused flush. He grunts, wrinkles his nose, and yawns enormously.

    Johnny needs to get his heart checked out, he thinks, because there’s something quite arrhythmic about it and he’s becoming worried about its function when he’s exposed to certain specific stressors. Stressors such as Peters. “Hey, ugly,” he says mushily.

    Summary

    “Peter,” MJ says, pressing her thumb and forefinger into her eyes. “Do you know what I think?”

    “No,” he says. “What do you think?”

    She says, “I think you need a good fuck. I do. I think that if you and Johnny make hot, delicious love, this weirdness will go away. Weirdness is just undefined horniness more often than you might think.”

    “In what world is that a reality?” Peter wails around his fries. “Mary Jane, Mary Jane. Mary Jane. If I—” Peter leans closer and whispers, “—sleep with him,” he returns to full volume, “I will fall in love with him.”

    MJ raises her eyebrows. “Did you fall in love with me because of my juicy puss, Pete?”

    “It didn’t hurt!”

    or, peter is smart but dumb and johnny is dumb but smart and yet they're both fucking clueless. did i mention they're chefs?

    Summary

    Peter’s apartment smells like dust and soy sauce and webfluid. It’s got the same terrible green backsplash tiles in the kitchen and the same crowded, clumsy bookcases that Johnny has always tended to organize for fun. The same sneakers sit by the door: black Nikes meant for skateboarding that Peter’s had since they were teenagers, now so well-worn that the soles are duct-taped to the sides. The same brown denim jacket hangs on the hook; coffee mug succulent sits in the window; black stain sprays up and out of a socket from that tiny electrical fire they’d set when they were high and rewiring Peter’s funky lava lamp while it was still plugged in.

    It takes a weight off Johnny’s shoulders, being submerged in it: here is another thing that hasn’t changed. Peter is, at his core, the same.

    He crosses to Peter’s deep, corduroy couch and tosses himself onto it.

    Peter stands in front of Johnny, hovering in that white and black suit, mask now balled in his hand. His eyes are wide and his jaw is tight.

    “You look like you’ve seen a ghost,” is what Johnny says.

    or, the one where they were roommates: the remix

    Parker picked up another mini-pizza. “You ever think about getting your own?”

    “What, pizza?”

    “A date. One that stays with you the whole night.”

    “Burn,” Johnny muttered. "Sick burn."

    Summary

    “Does this new man even like you?” Darren said. “Or is this just the latest in a long line of cries for attention? I’d have thought Johnny Storm, back from the dead, would’ve kept you going for a few more months.”

    “What?” Johnny said.

    “I mean,” Darren said, shrugging with that kind of deceptive casualness Johnny recognized so well but had never been able to replicate. “This new boyfriend rumor’s everywhere, you’ve been snapped a couple times, but he’s never around you, he hasn’t met any of your friends. No one’s seen hide nor hair of him, and now this? He can’t even be bothered to make it to your birthday party?”

    --

    Months after his return from the Negative Zone, a surprise party awakens a host of old insecurities in Johnny.

    Summary

    “—and I know that there’s Becca and Tanner and Millie to consider, but I was wondering if you maybe wanted to move in? Together? With me?”

    Mel blinks. He certainly doesn’t look like he’s having a stroke.

    “Frank, why would we move in together?”

    “I thought it might be nice,” he shrugs here, acting nonchalant even though Mel can see the tension in his jaw. “To take that next step in our relationship.”

    “Frank, what are you talking about? We’re not in a relationship?”

    At this, Frank’s frown deepens before widening into a frustrated half smile. “Uh, yes we are? We’ve been dating for nine months?”

    What.

     

    Or, Frank thinks Mel doesn’t do physical touch.
    Or, Mel doesn’t realize they’ve been dating for nine months.

    Summary

    Mel had thought her way right into a corner with only one option.

    Feelings were messy, unpredictable things. She’d managed keeping them to herself this long, she could keep a handle on it with a one time perfunctory favor sex involved. She simply had to logic her way through it. Frank was her person. He would help her out because he was a good friend. The sex would be carefully carried out and rote. There would be no additional emotional attachment. Everything between them would go back to the way it always was and Mel could move on.

    There would be absolutely no deviation.

    Summary

    Bobby clears his throat, flustered. “Nothing you say will convince me to let you engage in PDA in this firehouse.”

    “But outside of the firehouse is okay?” Buck pitches. “Like, for instance, in the engine?”

    “Absolutely not,” Bobby says sternly. Buck deflates. “Just… find it within yourselves to be professional for the rest of the shift. Please.”

    “It’s okay, Cap,” Eddie says, with a smile equal parts charming and reassuring. “We’ll behave. Right, Buck?”

    “Yeah,” Buck agrees— not because he wants to, but because he’s pretty sure he would do anything Eddie ever told him to. “What’s another 46 hours?”

    Or: Buck, Eddie, and their first shift as a couple.

    “Eddie,” Buck breathes, laughing humorlessly, his voice wet and thick. “If we sat here and-- and went through the list of things I want…” his hands gesture aimlessly. “We’d-- be here all night.”

    Eddie nods, catching Buck’s eyes again. “Maybe-- we start with mine, then.”

    The space between them feels charged with static, like the second before the thunder finally rumbles.

    -----

    Eddie’s finally choosing to be better-- finally choosing joy. He just needs a push or two in the right direction, first.

    Raphael’s trying his best not to be nosy, but his eyes land on Eddie’s screen anyway, and he huffs out a quiet laugh. “My wife sends me stuff like that, too. I don’t know where she finds it.”

    “If she’s anything like Buck, she’s got the oddity section on AP News bookmarked.”

    Eddie’s card makes a soft little beep as he taps it against the machine, and Raphael smiles at him as he tears the receipt off and hands it over. “How long have y’all been together?”

    “Is it possible,” Chimney says, breaking the silence. Buck looks up from his phone and sees him sip from a mug, eyes glinting. “For two people to get even closer after one of them moves away?”

    Buck flushes. He locks his screen, the text thread between him and Eddie fading, but it just lights up again with a notification.

    ...or, Eddie moves, Buck pines, and they are both very normal about it.
