Summary
Dex had a lot of goals for his Samwell career, but "kiss a boy" turned out to be the most difficult. (Sorry about using some of the ship tags despite them being one-sided in this fic. It's still shipping when it's one-sided imo)

Summary
“I’d thought that things were better between the two of you,” Lardo says. “Better than we’d thought possible.”
Every part of Dex wants to scream that that’s the entire problem.
Or: A few days before he moved into the attic, Dex torched a rancid slice of pie with a flamethrower. This was to show everyone, especially Nursey, that the two of them simply didn’t work together, even as everything else seemed to prove him wrong.

Summary
"I get my hair cut once a month." The admission leaves Dex's mouth before he has time to think twice, and the regret is instant when both Nursey and Shitty gasp dramatically at it. He knows they're teasing in the 'good way', but it still makes his stomach twist like every reminder that he does things in ways no one else seems to do.
"There's no way your hair grows fast enough to warrant a trim every month, brah."
Nursey's not totally wrong, but Dex has learned through years of experience that he can't go more than 36 days between haircuts before his hair grows just long enough to tickle his ears and neck constantly. The sensation is so overwhelming to him even as he grew up that the summer he sprained his ankle in junior high he'd ended up taking his father's shaver and buzzing his entire head when he couldn't walk the five blocks to the barber.
~ Or a series of vignettes about Dex's life on the autism spectrum from childhood to college.

1. Chowder’s relatively drama-free breakup with Farmer that everyone (Bitty) treated as a harbinger of the apocalypse.
2. The ugly-as-fuck “Pan Pride” tank that Nursey had taken to wearing in the weight room and the confusion that followed. (“I don’t get it. Peter Pan Pride? Or like one of Bitty’s cooking pans? Does he think he’ll get more pie this way? Is this a weird, Manhattan thing?” “Holster, shut up.”)
