    Summary

    The second that the notification went off, damning and intimately familiar, Jack's head snapped over and Robby, wide-eyed, flushed a deep shade of red as he fumbled with his phone to turn the sound off. Surely he'd misheard. There was no one else around to corroborate, otherwise Jack might've turned to them with a questioning look, a, did you hear that too?

    The blush on Robby's face was telling enough, muttered apologies falling from his lips as he tucked his phone away again, steadfastly refusing to meet Jack's eyes.

    A lot of things crossed his mind at once. Chief among them was the dawning realization that Robby's once-upon-a-time hookup with some guy in college wasn't, apparently, a drunken mistake. And behind it, something darker — jealousy.

    --

    robby's phone pings with a grindr notification, and jack's normal about it.

    Summary

    All Jack knew was he didn't breathe from deep in his chest again until Robby picked up his stethoscope from where it hung on the railing and put it back around his neck.

    Robby decides to get therapy. Jack decides to be a little too obvious about his feelings. That turns out okay, because Robby shares them.

    Summary

    Robby looked up at him, eyes landing on Abbot’s face for the first time. “Abbot… do you think there are any sins too big for God to forgive?”

    Swallowing, Abbot answered carefully. “Not if you earnestly believe in Christ.”

    &

    Jack Abbot is a monk and the only survivor of his plague-swept monastery. He’s white-knuckling his last scrap of faith in God and on the verge of ending his life when an injured knight appears on horseback.

    Sir Michael Robinavitch is a knight grieving the loss of his squire, tortured with guilt over all the people he’s killed, and afraid of dying unforgiven.

    Abbot tends to Robby and hears his confession. But will Robby’s sins finally push him over the edge—or pull him back into safety?

    &

    Set in 1300s France, this is a story about how to remake society when all the rules are thrown out, how to balance the person you want to be with the person you are, and all the types of Hell that exist.

    There’s also a horse named Huckleberry and a fox named Trinity.

    Summary

    "Why would you need to be on PrEP?" Robby asked slowly, suddenly feeling like he was floating outside his body, watching this scene from a distance.

    Jack looked at him obviously. "'Cause I'm planning on getting railed and it's the responsible thing to do," he said, like this should be no surprise at all rather than Jack coming out to him. At Robby's silence, Jack narrowed his eyes. "Got a problem with that?"

    Robby blinked, slamming back into his body, aware of his elevated heart rate, the sweat prickling along his lower back and at the backs of his knees, making his dress slacks clammy. "Nope," he said, because he didn't. He didn't.

    He just...hadn't known, that was all.

    Summary

    Robby is usually very unbothered by the audio he has to mix and edit for PittLit, an audio erotica app for women. That is, until he listens to a new recording. This actor is older, his voice gruff and sexy. It sends Robby into a heated tailspin.

    He certainly wasn't expecting to hear that same voice in a Staples a few days later...

    Summary

    “You were having sex once or twice a month, new person every time,” Robby says, “and you’re telling me none of them made you come?”

    “I didn’t say that—”

    “Obviously none of them were good enough to go back for a second time,” Robby says. “Were they just using you to dump a load?” His voice is hard.

    Jack opens and closes his mouth. “If we got that far. Some of them backpedaled once they saw what I was working with. It’s not in my bio, you know. Wasn’t.”

    Robby growls and goes back in. "Fucking assholes,” he says. “I’m going to spend every day from now on showing you what you should’ve been getting. What you deserved all that time."

    “Want you to treat me like I’m a—like, feminine,” Jack says, his ears burning immediately.

    “Like a pretty girl?” Robby asks, picking up on it. “A princess?”

    “I’m still me,” Jack says, lame and unhelpful, but he’s struggling here. “Just…with different parts. Words. You know.” 

    The corner of Robby’s mouth quirks up. “You wanna be my princess?”

    "First massage?”

    “Not in a while,” Jack says. “Had some bad experiences with others. People who didn’t know what they were doing with this.” He pulls the sheet aside enough to show Robby his stump, watching closely. Robby doesn’t flinch, doesn’t balk, just glances and nods. 

    “I’m very sorry to hear that.” Robby folds his hands in his lap, manspreading over the stool he’s sitting on. Jack can’t help staring at the broad line of his shoulders, at the soft way Robby is looking at him, at the way the light hits his face.

    He’s handsome. Very, very handsome. Jack’s trying not to stare.

    Robby adds, “If it’s alright, could you tell me a few things that other masseurs have done wrong, so that I explicitly know what to avoid doing?”

    or

    robby is a golden retriever masseur, and jack is his skeptical client who quickly falls in love with him.

    Summary

    "Why didn't you tell me about this?" Jack says.

    Robby winds around himself, almost too mortified to speak. He forces out, "You were so happy with the arrangement that I just thought it was... out of the cards."

    Jack looks at him plainly. "I'm not happy. My husband is withdrawing from me. The guy I'm married to didn't seem to want me in bed with him. I thought something was really wrong, man."

    "Fuck. I'm sorry." He scrapes a hand over his eyes.

    Jack takes his head in his hands, forcing their eyes to meet; with great importance, he tells him, "I love you. You deserve to feel good."

    Summary

    "When Jack interrupted, he spoke low and slow and with a force that he knew Robby would recognize. “Go to my house. Go to sleep. If you try to leave town on that bike I swear I will fucking 302 you and you will be held in this ED, in front of everyone, until a bed opens up upstairs. Text me when you’re there and every hour until you go to sleep. Wear your fucking helmet.”

    Jack tries not to show his relief as he saw Robby settle. He saw the wildness retreat. He didn’t look happy - had he ever seen Robby happy? - but he was going to do as he was told. A ridiculous twinge of pride in his chest; he could still make Robby obey."

    OR

    Jack Abbott is not going to let Robby kill himself, even if he has to fuck him into agreeing.

    Summary

    “Say you got married,” Robby found himself asking. “Would you wear your dress blues? Or civilian clothes?”

    It had only been an idle thought, no different than any number of easy, directionless musings of the sort that often came over the two of them on mornings like this one, when no one had a shift to go to for at least thirty-six hours. Robby didn’t mean anything by it. But he regretted the words the instant they left his mouth, even before he saw the incredulous grin slide over Jack’s face.

    A challenge set by the author, for the author, to break out of writer's block. Fics are rough and barely edited, not beta'd, and are meant to be more of a creative exercise than a showcase of literary prowess. But the love of Springsteen is real and serious. Each individual fic is based on lyrics and/or vibes from a specific song, and may be expanded on in the future.

    "Wait, how long has it been exactly since you last had sex?"

    On a night in, drinking beers and watching the game, Jack discovers that not only has Robby not got laid in nearly two years, but it's also been a long while since he's managed to get himself off with just his hand. Robby's problem is not being able to switch his brain off and enjoy the moment.

    Jack decides to rectify that himself.

    Summary

    Gifting someone a stethoscope at a milestone was very traditional, he knew, but some traditions should be observed. They kept you anchored to something greater than yourself. And this one was just...warm. Jack always thought of the people who'd given him his steths—Colonel Jacquemin, who'd gifted him his first Littmann when he finished residency, or Lizzie, who'd given him his current Littmann III when Adamson hired him as an attending. It was a reminder of the people who loved you, believed in you, helped you along the way, a physical token of those you carried with you.

    Sure, maybe it wasn't exactly Jack's place to give one to Robby, more properly the domain of family or mentors. If Adamson had lived to retire, he would've gifted Robby a steth to celebrate his promotion, Jack was sure. Robby's family was gone, so that wasn't an option, and Jack would be damned if Robby's elevation to one of the highest posts in their field would go uncelebrated.
