    Summary

    Phil stays quiet, his lips pressed together, until they’re all sat in their living room, Dan next to Phil on the sofa with far more space between them than they usually have, looking around helplessly.

    “Just what exactly do you remember?” he asks Dan.

    “Uh,” makes Dan. “I know my name is Dan. They told me.”

    Dan has a ski accident and loses his memory. Phil can't do anything but offer him a home - Dan finds that said home is quite obscure.

    Summary

    Before Dan goes to Wokingham to reunite with his high school friend group, he panics, and practically begs Phil to join him. He's anticipating that the weekend will be awkward and heavy, but at least this way, he won't be alone. He'll have Phil by his side to make him laugh and feel safe, so realistically, how bad could things get?

    And then, the funniest thing happens. They both have a wonderful time.

    Dan has a hard time being normal about it all. Luckily, no one is really asking him to be.

    Summary

    "Dan looks around the apartment, the cheery decorations they put up together. If Dan was living by himself he knows he’d never put up a tree, little colorful lights, when they wouldn’t even be here for Christmas Day. Phil had insisted. Maybe it was all worth it, to be loved like this."

    5 times the boys had a crisis when they were separated, and 1 time they managed to have one together

    Or, Dan and Phil relying on each other through the years.

    Summary

    During a depressive episode, Dan starts thinking about how strange it is that water is necessary for human survival, but can also be deadly in so many ways (waterborne illnesses, flooding, accidental drownings, etc.). The more he thinks about this, the more his mental and physical health start to deteriorate. Phil doesn't understand Dan's obsession with water at first. By the time he realizes what's going on, damage has already been done.

    Summary

    Phil’s pointer finger traces a line between the three little dots now, back and forth, back and forth. It settles his mind down. He’s surprised he hasn’t worn a permanent divot into Dan’s skin at this point. It’s- stupid, but he can’t help it. He likes doing it. He likes Dan’s freckles. He likes Dan.

    Summary

    There aren’t many fundamental truths to the universe that Dan recognizes, but this one he knows for certain: if things had been different, if they’d never met, Phil would have been fine without him. Dan most certainly wouldn’t have been. It doesn’t mean anything. It’s just a fact, like the sky being blue, or London being perpetually bleak.

    Phil isn’t fine. Dan feels a bit like his whole world has pitched sideways. The worst part is Phil hasn’t seemed to notice.

    (Phil versus therapy. Or, more accurately, Dan versus Phil versus therapy.)

    Dan and Phil never worked out online in 2009, leaving Dan to wonder for years if they could have been something real. Thankfully no one these days is so impossible to find.

    Summary

    Before Dan leaves for his solo tour, Phil has a bit of a crisis about the fact that their relationship is the only one Dan has ever been in. He starts to worry that Dan feels confined by their relationship the same way he feels confined by their brand, and he makes Dan an offer that's not simple to navigate.

    And Dan? Well, Dan is mostly just confused.

    ---

    basically they consider opening their relationship before WAD but are reminded of what's been made evident since the hard launch: these freaks are literally only compatible with or interested in each other.

    Summary

    When you watch a man shave his face in the morning, mutter to himself while he looks for his shoes, bang his shin into the coffee table for the second time in a week and cry out in irritation—how can you help but love him?

    [...]

    In a sense, Dan has known Phil all his life. Others have known him longer, known him since he took his first breath in front of a live television audience, but it seems to Dan that no one has known him better.

    or: phil’s life is a tv show, and he’s the only one who doesn’t know. dan—actor, fan, hot for a badly dressed bottle blond—auditions for a leading role. this goes about as well as dan howell + reality tv stardom could possibly go.

    Summary

    He looks like he does on screen, black emo hair a little like a very attractive bird’s nest, with yellow-checkered cat ears on his head, but unmistakably Phil. Dan is shocked, genuinely, that not everyone here falls head over heels for this man immediately. Surely they must. Surely they’re just doing a better job than Dan is at keeping it in. Maybe he’s not gay, maybe this is just what Phil does to people.

    “Hi,” Phil says. “You’ve got nice whiskers.”

    Dan chose the safety of a girlfriend over Phil, and now he meets Phil in real life for the first time at a YouTuber meetup. And for the first time. And for the first time. And for the- It's a time loop fic.

    Summary

    “I read something somewhere.” Dan definitely knows that tone. Heat rushes south and he swallows hard. “That sex can relieve migraines.”

    Dan nearly chokes. “Phil, what the fuck.”

    “Maybe we should test it out.”
