Summary
Ray swallows, flounders for a second. “I don’t wanna overstep,” he says, then cringes at the look on Pete’s face.
“Overstep?” Pete’s reeling and Ray's hands splay so Pete doesn’t fall backwards. “Ray, you could never—"
“No, no,” Ray tries reversing course, fingers flexing against Pete’s spine. “I just…I didn’t wanna assume—or maybe assume’s not the right word—I didn’t think—you were so sad, Pete, and I—“
Pete’s looking at Ray like he’s grown three heads, like he’s gone honest to God, batshit crazy.
“You were hurtin’, Pete, so bad, and I didn’t wanna act like everything was fine.” Ray pauses for a moment before meekly adding, “And you deserve space from me if you want it.”
or
Ray still feels guilty after their fight. Pete just wants them to be okay.

Summary
“I don’t wanna get in the way of your family,” Pete says, eyes dropping.
Ray feels his heart fracture. “Baby,” he pleads, trying out the endearment Pete uses for him. The word ungracefully tumbles off his tongue, but the hitching of Pete’s breath lets Ray know that it lands all the same. “You are family.”
or
Mama Garraty gets sick, Ray spirals, and Pete doubts.

Summary
Two weeks before the assassination, things had settled into an odd state of normalcy. Xavier was distant and composed as always, Cal was drinking enough to keep himself numb. It's how things were.

Summary
Later, he would speak with Makkari, trusting his hands to stay steady as his heart rolled off of his fingertips and into her mind. He would shower her with adoration and praise, and keep his eyes fixed on her all evening only to know how it would end up. Makkari would give him a smile and a gentle kiss on the cheek before speeding off to another continent, leaving nothing but a mess of emotions and an ocean between them.

Druig’s pining and Makkari’s obliviousness.

'My love,' she signed with shaking hands, 'I’m so sorry.'
Druig leaned forward as she backed out of his reach. That might’ve hurt more than the punches that hit his skin last night.
'Makkari,' he signed, 'I’m okay.'

After an attack, Makkari and Druig evaluate how much they mean to each other while getting patched up.

Summary
Ilya wants to crawl inside Shane’s chest.
Not to hurt him—never that—but to exist in the only place that has ever felt like home. He’s tired of the distance that hotel rooms, trade rumors, and skin create between them. He wants to be closer than physics allows.
Or: Ilya has a crisis about the "cruel design flaw" of being two separate people.

Summary
'You're beautiful.'
She'd never heard that phrase before. Well, no - she'd heard it countless times, if the truth be known. She'd heard it, and general doting words to the same effect, whispered in hushed, pitying adoration towards Nessa by seemingly everyone who had ever crossed her path even momentarily.
But no. While those words had flitted around her head like butterflies from the moment of Nessa's birth, they had never landed on her, never even perched. Peculiar, yes. Strange, yes. A spectracle - a term her father in particular favoured - yes. Beautiful? Never.

Instead of running away after Galinda's makeover, Elphaba stays.

Summary
Shane is aware that he is an absolute mess, with hands trembling and shoulders shaking. His breaths are coming in short bursts, quicker than he is able to control them.
The confession sits like an elephant between them, and yet, Ilya hasn’t moved, tracing soothing circles between Shane’s shoulder blades.
“Sweetheart.” His husband’s voice is steady, soothing. “You need to breathe for me, okay? This isn’t good for you.”
OR, after a night out with J.J. and Hayden, Shane wakes up, certain that he has cheated on Ilya. (Spoiler alert: he hasn’t)
