Summary
“So, Neil, can you confirm?”
Neil takes a shaky sip of water in an attempt to clear his windpipe. “Confirm what?” he croaks.
“That Andrew has a big dick.”
He almost chokes again. “How would I know?”
Allison has the type of expression on her face that means she’s on a relentless hunt for gossip. “I thought you two were sleeping together.”
Neil startles, confused. Incomprehensibly, Allison’s words make him flush, up to his ears and down his neck. “We’re not,” Neil says. “We’re just friends.”
*
Neil learns some new information, navigates his own feelings, and stumbles into a relationship in the process.

Summary
In the electric, buzzing dark of the stage right wing of the Forum, Frank is frozen. His guitar is in his hands and his wife is kissing him on the cheek, but his feet have turned to lead in his sneakers. It's the last show. Five nights in LA and then there'll be nothing for months, until they strike out on an abbreviated tour leg in the Pacific next March. And after that, what will there be? Frank knows what he wants. He's just not convinced yet that any of it is even a possibility outside of his own head.
Draped in his own shadows across the stage, he sees him. Gerard sees him too and he smiles, bouncing in place and tugging unselfconsciously at his shirt, starting to summon that otherworldly whirlwind of energy within himself that he'll tear them all to shreds with onstage before he tenderly pieces them back together again.
Christ, but he's the same as he ever was. It could be their first show together, rather than nearly the thousandth. One thought loops around and around in his mind, piercingly urgent. Don't let this go.
Don't let go.
AKA: we all find our way back in the end

Summary
“I must have done something terrible to you back then,” Yahaba said as he took a long drag of his cigarette.
Kyoutani didn't say anything at first, just shifted his weight from one foot to the other before he let out a soft, “No”
It was cold that evening and the noises from inside the bar were muffled but cheerful.
“We were close,” Kyoutani continued.
“That's what I was told,” Yahaba exhaled and looked up “It's the first time you’ve told me that though.”
The sky was surprisingly clear. It had been raining for days, a curiously large storm had come through, slowly making its way across the country just the other day. The ground was clean but slick. The colder breeze and the dramatic change in temperature brought caution that Yahaba easily forgot about. He slipped stepping onto the sidewalk earlier.
