Summary
“Do you trust them?”
“Of course I do!” Bobby insisted. He trusted his crew with every bone in his body. But within him was a little boy with dried tear tracks on his face, clutching plucked feathers to his chest. That fear was undeniable, laying dormant in his body always just below the surface. “I’m just… worried they'll treat me differently,” Bobby admitted softly.
aka
Bobby’s kept his wings hidden for years and yet all it takes is one slip of the tongue for his entire world to come crumbling down around him.

Summary
Joe writes Joyce about life on the S.S. Manhattan. The crew members goof around but worry about Don as he grows sicker. Bobby is there for his stroke oar but inside he yearns for something more...will they be together when he returns from his European tour in the Fall? Don writes much more than he talks. Bobby writes less but feels a lot.

Summary
"The music was intoxicating, addicting, therapeutic. The vibration of the speakers was all Joe wanted when he walked out of stage of The Boys in the Boat’s world tour. He was known as the calm and quiet member to their large fanbase but regardless, he couldn’t wipe the smile on his face. It was a fever dream; loud, exhausting, and beautiful. As if the planets had aligned as the 9 of them were in tune.
Joe drank in the noise of thousands of their fans screaming for them, for him. At this point, the blonde’s eyes found Shorty’s beside him, guitars gripped in both of their hands. His fellow guitarist had a glint in his eyes, the glint that he seemed to gain every time they were on stage, no matter the size of the crowd. Joe couldn’t even savor the sound of Shorty’s laugh with the noise that had begun.
This, this was his dream. He had made it. "Or,
Joe starts a band, and drama ensues.

Summary
"Joe had grown up chasing. Through the fields of his childhood home, he and his brother rushing through the tall grass, calling out to each other through the clear, warm air. Chasing his father’s truck as it drove down the gravel path of the dark, London house he’d been put in. Chasing his stepmother, looking for acceptance but simply being met with scolding or a slap to the cheek. Chasing, gripping at the memories of his mother that were slowly fading the more and more he thought deeply about her.
He’d chased and chased his family for their approval, attention, their warm embrace. He’d never gotten it.
Hogwarts had been a blessing in disguise."Or,
Joe is fighting to be top of his class at Hogwarts, as well as bring home the House Cup to Hufflepuff. And yet, Shorty Hunt, a naturally smart and skilled Ravenclaw, won't stop getting in the way.

Summary
"Oh God.” Joe moans and his hand reaches up to grab Don’s firm shoulder and squeezes it. “What did I ever do to you?”
Don smirks at him, eyes fixated on his lips. “You talk too much,” he says.
Joe is trembling, scared of what his body is going to do to him if they continue this any further, but he can’t back down from an accusation like that.
“So shut me up then.”
Joe Rantz starts his freshman year of college in a drafty, old boathouse, searching for a way to pay his college tuition. Little does he know that this is the start of a rowing adventure, beginning at a scrimmage with Cal and ending at the 1936 Olympics. Along the way, Joe has his stroke seat, Don Hume, by his side and quickly befriends him, only to realize that his feelings for Don go way beyond what he feels for the other 6 boys in his boat.

Summary
“It’s not nothing.” Jim’s voice, unusually quiet, turned every head in the room. The boys looked on with wide eyes as he explained. “Remember when Ulbrickson was out of town for a few days last year? He asked me to take a few of his things home from the shell house 'cause he had to leave quick. I stayed to chat with Mrs. Ulbrickson for a bit, and as I was leaving, I saw Coach Bolles pull up with a suitcase."
Johnny White sees someone suspicious leaving Coach Ulbrickson's house in the early hours of the morning, college boys have fertile imaginations, and Hazel Ulbrickson's ego gets a significant boost.

Summary
I have scoured the internet, and cannot find one single fic for "The Boys in the Boat." That fact is absolutely killing me, because I've already seen it in theaters four times and I reallllly need more of these characters. Especially Bobby Moch, because let's face it...he was more compelling than the rest of the team put together. So if you are in the same boat as me (pun very much intended), this fic is for you!

5 times Ulbrickson wondered if his stroke pair was dating (and 1 time he got proof) by NiciJones

Summary
“I understand they are supposed to be close but Rantz constantly has his hand on his back or his shoulder. Hume doesn’t say much, of course, but I never see him smile as often as when he talks to Rantz. I mean- I’m not saying something is going on but-”
Al nods slowly. They do need to keep an eye on it. Everything that happens in their boats is their business. Unfortunately. “Yeah, no, you’re right.” Al rubs his forehead. He doesn’t care obviously who his stroke pair prefers to take to bed. That would be mighty hypocritical of him. But it’s still a crime and if they break it off that could affect the whole boat. A thought that probably turns Tom’s stomach as much as it does Al’s.
-----
OR Al, Tom and Hazel are a happy throuple - even as they have to consider the possibility that two men on their top eight might be queer and the consequences of that.
