    Summary

    “My mind is a black box, even to myself.” He shrugs.
    “You’d tell me though, if something was super fucked up?” Jay says, letting go of him.
    “You know me, man. If something was even a little fucked up, you think I’d shut up about it?”

    Matt comes to a realization, makes a plan, and Jay doesn't really notice at first.

    Summary

    Obviously Matt’s aware that Jay looks good in a suit. It’s more something about the way he holds himself, still and straight, self possessed. That's not a Jay posture. It’s the weirdest thing, it makes Matt feel almost starstruck – so much so that when their eyes catch, it punches the breath out of him. There’s Jay, regular, but there’s someone else too, also Jay. That's when it catches up.

    Maddy and her friend think Jay is his boyfriend. That word, boyfriend, crashes into his head so hard that for a split second he’s afraid he said it out loud. Earlier, Jules asked how long have you two been… and Matt, assuming he knew the end of the question, said since we were like 12 or something. Jay heard that happen. Not only that, he played along. They grinned at each other conspiratorially about it.

    The only reason Matt would ever go to a family wedding is if he and Jay could get a show at The Rivoli out of it. The plan: Play the wedding, bring the house down, and get his cousin and her friends to book them for an after party. The part where they pretend to be a couple, threatening decades of load-bearing repression, comes out of nowhere – at least for Matt, it does.

    Summary

    “I met a dental hygienist that was wearing a dog collar when we first got here, we danced and then he gave me a mint from a little baggy. It made sense that he’d carry those around, but then…” He just shrugs.
    “Oh, Birdie,” He laughs, but it’s desperate, like a cry for help from the bottom of a well. “Was it - minty?” His voice sounds three octaves too high.
    “I couldn’t tell. It’s so loud in here.”

    ---

    Matt and Jay plan to enthrall the Rivoli’s new booking agent at a gay club. Jay accidentally takes ecstasy thinking it's a breath mint, and Matt is subjected to torments previously unique to the trenches of WWI. It's going to be a long, long night.

    Summary

    "I'm from the future," Jay says at last.

    That's not possible, is Matt's first thought but he clamps down on it because this is Jay, and Jay is wandering Spadina, and Jay is also here in his room. So. Something impossible is now possible and it may as well be time travel.

    "You're a time traveller." Matt giggles. "Holy shit. Holy shit. How did you—? No, never mind that, what am I thinking. Do you have a sports almanac on you? Any winning lotto numbers?"
