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.

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
But Bobby made the final calls, rallied the group, and pulled them back at times too when needed. Surviving among the poorest of New York City meant you had to be smart and strategic. In Brooklyn, Bobby was the best at those things, so everyone fell in line behind him.
Fearless and tough, Bobby has survived in Brooklyn for as long as he can remember. Though surrounded by friends and others who look up to him, he's convinced it all works by keeping his heart isolated and independent. When he meets Don, he's undeniably drawn to the boy who is grasping for a place to start over and someone who will let him in.

Summary
That looming deadline is why he’s considering this thrice-damned fucking foolish plan. He’ll probably never have a chance like this again, in a whole host of ways: to be touched by someone he’s in love with, to have a ready-made escape, to have such an excuse to approach in the first place… To lay claim to an experience that Don will never have with someone else.
Bobby is graduating soon, and intends to leave Seattle within weeks. He hopes to soothe the loss with something that will be precious to him, and nothing more than a favour to Don.

Pretty Boy (It's a Compliment) by teaforone for zargothraxcore

Summary
As with any sporting event, the Poughkeepsie Regatta has its traditions and rituals. Some of these are stoic and dignified. Some are not.
The post-race “revenge” against the coxswains is very much in the latter category.
Bobby Moch would do almost anything to see the East Coast teams knocked down a peg - wearing a dress for one party is nothing to him. Of course, that doesn't mean that it's not everything to someone else.

Summary
During bad weather conditions, the boys' boat capsizes. Don worries about Bobby's safety.
" Once he got over the shock of the cold and processed what had happened, his mind only had one panicked thought: Bobby.
He knew the coxswain’s asthma could be triggered by the cold, and combine that with the effort it took to stay afloat in the choppy water—Don immediately feared his cox wouldn’t be able to withstand these conditions. "

“What’s up?” Chuck mumbles.
“D’you think you could choke me?”OR

Summary
"The pain came in waves. There were points that were light, where the pounding would relax for a few moments. He cherished that tiny bit of relief when it briefly occurred, most of the time for only a few seconds. But there were many times when the pain was unbearable. A knife carving deeply into that one temple, leaving him begging for any kind of relief. He never got it."

Shorty gets migraines but Joe's there to help him through it :)

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.
