    Summary

    Between "I'll never shake you" and GOODBYE, BJ tucks a "hello" into Hawkeye's pocket.

    #

    “Something to help you keep track of time,” BJ said.

    “Keep track of—Beej, what? You’re giving me your watch?”

    “Loaning,” BJ corrected, a grin growing beneath that war crime of a mustache. “I’ll take it back a year from now, when you come find me in Mill Valley to return it. With interest, of course.” He patted the pocket, grin fading to something earnest. “That way you know I mean it when I say we’ll see one another again.”

    When Hawkeye doesn't make it to California in July 1954, BJ takes matters into his own hands.

    Summary

    “What are we playing for? Money? Pride?” Hawkeye toyed with a pawn, running his thumb over the smooth marble head. “Pawn to c3.”

    “Let's play for a favor.”

    That gave him pause, because BJ had a psyche more labyrinthine than the New York City sewer system, and Hawkeye had wound up on the receiving end of it on more than one unfortunate occasion—enough to make him cautious about nebulous wagers.

    “What kind of favor?”

    “Any kind. One ask, one ‘yes.’”

    #

    In the months after the end of the war, Hawkeye and BJ begin a game of phone-based correspondence chess. The stakes are simple: whoever wins earns a favor from the other. Hawkeye is willing to take those odds. After all, it's not like BJ would come to Maine to collect, right?

    Summary

    "Hawkeye, this is important. It's about a- a certain thing of yours that was intercepted at the post office in Seoul earlier today."

    "Oh?"

    "A certain tape with your voice on it."

    ---

    Or: Hawkeye records a message for his dad. Frank somehow managed to get his hands on it and decided it'd be perfect to blackmail Hawkeye with. Only, he wasn't prepared for how many people would side against him.

    In the meantime, B. J. gets used to living beside Hawkeye and vice versa. He even helps Hawkeye open up more to the camp chaplain, and discovers some important things about himself in the process.

    Summary

    It's January 1960, and Hawkeye is doing pretty well. He has a house, a cat, a job he loves, and friends in town. He's just missing one thing: the girl! Or rather... his boy bestfriend from the war, BJ Hunnicutt. Fortunately, BJ's come to town to visit... Unfortunately, BJ gots problems (i.e. layers upon layers of repression and self-delusion).

    Classic BJ goes to Maine... what else is there to say?

    Alternate Title: The Beejsis. Whether that is short for “Beej Thesis” or “Beej-in-crisis” is up to you. In any case, now complete!!

    Summary

    “Your dad wants to talk to you,” Hawkeye says, the receiver in his hand outstretched.
    “Do I have to?”
    Erin’s voice lies just on the edge of a whine. It reminds Hawkeye of the last time they met, when Peg had to wheedle her to wash up before lunch so she wouldn’t track mud in the house. He wants to say yes. He thinks he should say yes. BJ would kill him if he knew he didn’t say yes.
    “I can’t make you do anything,” he settles on.


    In 1966, 14-year-old Erin Hunnicutt runs away. The only place she can think to go is to her semi-estranged, semi-uncle Hawkeye. She wishes she’d packed warmer.
