    Summary

    There are no windows in the Skydome’s cramped detention room so nobody gets the moment that Jay’s nose starts bleeding, dripping heavily into his lap. His hands are still cuffed behind his back. He tries to wipe the blood off on his shoulder and succeeds in smearing it across his lips, over his left cheek. It keeps dripping like a leaky faucet.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “What?” Matt is properly preening. Like a cat at a canary buffet, with a huge-ass glass of cream. “Double suicide for no reason? That’s crazy. You’re crazy.”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “You're so perfect. Sometimes I wonder how you can be real. I used to think I dreamt you up, you know that? But I—I think I had it backwards. I think—think I'm the one. I had to dream myself up just to be with you. You know what I mean?"

    Summary

    Matt has been dyking out her whole life, basically. It’s not exactly a secret. It’s on Jay that she hasn’t been able to see it, hasn’t been able to understand what’s right in front of her, loud and open.

    Summary

    "How are you, Bird? It's good?"

    "Yeah." His hairline and the divots of his collarbone are shining. The inner corners of his eyes. "Good." He swallows, and Matt watches his Adam's apple working. "I'm glad this is with you."

    Generous, aware, receptive. Willing. Open. All Matt has to say is I gotcha and Jay nuzzles right in. If only Matt could get him on camera like this. A dream on celluloid.

    Summary

    It’s taking longer than Jay thought it would to get back on his feet. 

    He can’t afford his own place, so he’s still living with Matt. They move through each other’s lives like the other is invisible. Or, at least, that’s true of Jay. Matt keeps doing things for him that Jay would tell him to stop doing if he could see him. Jay wakes up and finds his water bottle full, finds breakfast on the kitchen counter with a fork and knife on a napkin alongside it, finds his bed made and his laundry done. These are, maybe importantly, things that Matt has never done for him before. And still.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Jay almost wishes that he would just hit him, that he would pull him onto the floor and whale on him the way that they used to, the way that felt right, the way that made Jay feel sorry and happy and like the thing they were doing together was gonna work. Without it, they’re like opposing magnets, they’re pressing into each other's space and thrown in opposite directions. Getting hurt by how badly they want to crash together.
