    Summary

    As Robby lifts his shirt up, Dennis is overcome with the need to bury his face in his armpit until he passes out. The gold chain with its Star of David that he always wears rests just below his collar. As Robby strips off, Dennis allows himself a longing look.

    Yeah, Dennis admits to himself, he’s down pretty bad.

    He’s certain that the fishing trips his brothers took with their dad didn’t have this additional complication – that of the man taking them being so hot they’d want to cry. Trinity’s comment, ‘daddy wants to take you to the woodshed,’ bounces around in Dennis’s head.
    -

    Robby takes Dennis out on a fishing trip. Neither of them expected it to end this way.

    Summary

    “Woah— don’t go dying on me there.” Robby mumbled, a tense chuckle punctuating his words. Dennis scrambled to speak, to create any combination of words that would save him from the shitstorm brewing right in front of his eyes.

    “I’m—“ he took in a wheezy breath, throat gradually clearing of the offending hoppy suds now sprayed out on the table in front of him. “I’m okay— I’m okay Robby. Sorry I didn’t mean to- I mean— it’s not like I’m—“

    “Nice hat, Huckleberry.” Fuck, Trinity. The comfort of being saved of an explanation was quickly replaced with a white hot embarrassment at the reminder of the teasing grin that was still plastered on his roommate's face. His teary eyes met hers as she leaned in close to his ear, picking up Dennis’s hat in one smooth motion and placing it on her own head. “Didn’t know you were in the business of saving horses.”

    --

    There are some unspoken rules when it comes to properly wearing a cowboy hat. Dennis knows these rules. Robby does not.

    Summary

    “Jesus, Whitaker, I’m not going to hurt you.”

    Dennis didn’t mean to say it outloud. It was just an impulsive thought that slipped right out, but before his brain could catch up to his mouth he blurted out:

    “Could you?”

    OR

    Dennis thinks he needs to be punished in order to be saved and Robby is more than willing to save him. The two start a worryingly under negotiated relationship. Boundaries are crossed, kinks are explored, and something resembling love is pieced together along the way.

    Summary

    Robby occasionally uses Grindr for anonymous, no-strings-attached hookups. He takes a chance messaging a much younger guy, and their fun night together prompts another, and then another. Robby likes the kid, worries about him, thinks it could be nice to keep seeing him-

    And then Dennis Whitaker walks into the Pitt as an MS4 with Robby's coffee mug in his hand.

    Summary

    So it was nice to text with a man, even if it was anonymous. Anonymity had been the stipulation from the start. (As well as: "Actual words. No Gen Z speak.") Dennis went by DJ. Childhood nickname, no one here knew that. The professor went by M. Dennis liked to call him professor. It was flattering to think he got the attention of someone successful and important.
