Summary
He kept watching, waiting for Adrian to pop back up, start battling for the puck. He didn’t. Then time sped up again and there was a whistle and the next thing Deran remembered was whaling on number 19, gloves and stick on the ice, fists first hitting his opponents visor and then him finally making contact with his flesh and bones.

Summary
Scott doesn’t often get stopped in his tracks by guys he sees. He doesn’t really ever get that birds-dancing-round-his-head, sweet-chorus-of-angels, crepuscular-rays-alighting-on-the-earth knockabout, or hasn’t really since Mike Johansson transferred into St Thomas in senior year of high school and he had, for the first time in his life, fallen in love. Unrequited, but still. That was fifteen years ago. He’s been in love since then, but he hasn’t been blindsided in a while. He’d forgotten how it feels.

Summary
The air up here was disrespectful.
That was the first thing Kip Grady noticed when he stepped out of his dad’s beat-up Honda Civic. The air in Brooklyn had texture. It had weight. It smelled like hot asphalt, exhaust fumes, and the specific, comforting garbage funk of a Tuesday afternoon. You knew where you stood with Brooklyn air.
The air here—four hours north, deep in the "Upstate" wilderness of the university—was suspicious. It was too thin. It smelled like pine needles and aggression. It smelled like people who hiked for fun.

Mise en Place by Desscard

Summary
It was 3:00 AM. Kip was exhausted, his body hummed with a pleasant, bone-deep ache from the last few hours, and he was absolutely starving.
He padded over to the refrigerator, a stainless steel monolith that looked complicated enough to launch a shuttle into orbit. He tugged it open.
"Jesus, Hunter," Kip muttered, bathed in the sterile LED glow.
It was a nutritional wasteland. Rows of bottled water (fancy brand). A carton of egg whites. Spinach. Unsweetened almond milk. A lonely container of blueberries sitting next to a bunch of perfectly yellow bananas. This fridge was designed for peak athletic performance, not for a human being who had just burned a significant amount of calories in bed.

Summary
Scott slides his hand under the table. He pulls his phone from his pocket, shielding the screen with his palm. It’s risky. It’s stupid. There are cameras everywhere, lenses long enough to capture the pores on his nose, let alone the screen of his phone.
He unlocks it anyway.
The photo loads instantly.
The breath leaves Scott’s lungs in a silent rush. The background is familiar—it’s his own living room in Manhattan. The orange of his favorite Admirals hoodie is unmistakable, swallowing the frame. But the hoodie is pulled up, bunching around a pale, taut stomach.

Summary
Scott had never imagined that he’d be at a brewery sharing beer with the love of his life, in public, yet here he was. His anxiety had trained him for years to hide who and what he was.
Over the last couple of months that anxiety lessened, brick by terrible brick crumbling away. He'd practiced not retreating from Kip’s touch in public, fingers sliding between Kip’s, shaking at first, then calming after Kip gave him a reassuring smile. He’d stopped wearing sunglasses and eventually ditched wearing a hat. “You look so handsome,” Kip said, which stamped down the nerves that had risen up in his chest.
