    Summary

    Beth and Rio have an unplanned baby.

    Set somewhere around season 4, a canon divergent series of events lead to an unplanned, unwanted Brio pregnancy. The timeline oscillates between:
    Present-day, when Brio navigate a difficult night with their infant daughter as they’re forced to face their strained relationship…
    And a look-back over the course of a year spent going from casual lovers and business partners, to unwilling coparents.

    Told in Rio POV, the idea was to capture some of his season 4 angst and anger while he tries to understand his new complicated situation.

    Summary

    "You don’t know me," she told him, all that time ago, but he does, he does, he does.

    And if she feels more seen by the guy who’s made her fear for her life than by her husband of twenty years, what does that say about her marriage?

    Summary

    They really should have listened when Natalie told them to go home before midnight for once in their lives.

    They really, really should have listened when Tina told them it looks like there'll be a rough storm tonight when she was leaving.

     

    Or, tender hours with Carmy and Syd.

    Summary

    “Do you have something you want to tell me, Sydney?” his voice is soft but insistent.

    Her stomach churns, and she takes another sip of the homemade Sprite, trying to buy herself a moment to think. She purses her lips, looks off to the side and shrugs.

    “Nothing at all?” Carmy insists.

    A moment passes.

    “Can we talk in the office?” she asks, her voice barely above a whisper.
