Summary
David is quitting.
He’s had enough of working for a photography company with an off-the-books philosophy of "sleaze and cheese", he's had enough of getting forced into assignments at the last minute when the company president decides he's flitting off to party with D-list celebrities instead. He’s quitting. This is, in fact, his last job.
At least it's an easy shoot - a puff piece on some up-and-coming Canadian singer-songwriter on the indie circuit who's just been catapaulted to widespread fame. No complications, no controversy. He'll be in his apartment and wallowing in his bamboo-silk sheets before he knows it.
A PhotographerDavid fic inspired by THAT photo shoot by Vanessa Heins.

Summary
The painting is arresting. A small-scale Helen Frankenthaler meets mixed media. Watery, bright colors bleed over textured fibers. Sand, maybe clay—he can’t tell from this distance—is mixed into some of the paints, lifting them off the canvas. His heart beats a familiar, forgotten thump.
A tale of David and art.

Summary
It’s Friday, for fuck’s sake. David did not have ‘death’ on the agenda for today.
But here he is, on a bus, attempting to steer this twin-axle six-wheeler despite lacking a valid regular license, let alone a commercial one, because to add insult to severe injury, the driver’s been fucking shot and if the speedometer drops below 80 kilometers per hour, said bus will explode.
Because some idiot decided to go ahead and put a bomb on it.
Or, the Speed AU that at least one of you asked for.

Summary
To him, it’s like fabric. He’s not sure that makes sense, but that’s how it feels. It doesn’t come to him as one big, normal thing. It comes to him as scraps of fabric. Adelina compliments him on his report card, and that’s a scrap. Mom brushes his hair off of his forehead, and that’s a scrap. Dad buys him a tie so they’ll match at the Christmas party this year, a scrap. Alexis hides behind him when the paparazzi get too close on the street, scrap.
Problem is: he doesn’t know what to do with them.Affection is tricky. And David was never taught how to sew.

Summary
The rest of the house was a manageable project for the two of them once Patrick had reassured David that the distinct aura of the seventies could be easily remedied with a lick of paint and a few replaced carpets. At the time, Patrick had assumed that the lick of paint would be applied mostly by him, having seen first hand David’s disinclination around what he deemed messy or dirty projects. What he didn’t account for was David’s self-professed superior knowledge of the correct aesthetic for their home. After two years and change, he reasons, he should probably have known better.
or: David and Patrick repaint the cottage. David, it turns out, contains multitudes.

Summary
After they get off to a bad start, David Rose is certain of one thing: he hates Patrick Brewer with a passion. His smug attitude, the way he always seems to be laughing at David, the way he interferes with David's business, everything.
He's so caught up in disliking Patrick Brewer that it's a shock when things start to change and he realises that his feelings aren't so straightforward after all.

Summary
“It’s just…I’ve never been to Pride.”
David hums, watching Patrick’s face carefully.
“I used to go every year when I lived in New York,” he says.
Which Patrick already knows. David’s told him plenty of stories about his time in New York, both the good and the bad. But Pride feels like one of those things that he missed out on by not figuring out his sexuality until his thirties. It feels like the kind of thing he should do, at least once in his life.
David and Patrick go to Pride in New York as husbands. Patrick has a lot of feelings about it.

"Two people, unable for whatever reason to express their totally requited feelings for one another, thrust into an impossibly intimate scenario? It's basically a perfect romcom situation."

Summary
As a kid, fresh snow meant snowmen in the backyard, snowball fights with his cousins, his mom standing on the porch watching Patrick empty powder out of his hood and shake himself off before she'd let him back in the house.
As an adult, snowfall coinciding with the holiday period means one of Patrick's favorite winter traditions: hikes with Stevie.

Summary
"David." Clint stops him before he turns to go, lifting a hand and stepping tentatively towards him. He stops short of touching his arm, like he's afraid he might spook him.
Set during MTP. After the conversation in the motel room, Clint asks David to stay and talk another few minutes, and they have a heart-to-heart.

Summary
“I like this for you,” David says as he slides onto the stool beside her, mouth quirked to the side like he's sharing a private joke with himself, and she's the punchline.
“There's nothing to like,” Stevie insists, taking another sip of her coffee. David and Patrick exchange a look, and now they're both in on the joke. “No, fuck you, don't do that,” she says.
“Do what?”
“We're not doing anything.”
+++
Stevie has breakfast at the cottage before a business trip. David and Patrick have some thoughts regarding her feelings for her new coworker.
