    Summary

    Shouta listened to Hizashi, and despite the many, many, many people in his life to have told him to shut up — his husband had never been one of them. And while of course he had his bad days where he found himself unsure if he'd even be able to open his mouth let alone keep up the happy-go-lucky attitude he normally exhibited. He also had Shouta at his side with his open hands and gentle demeanor that never failed to reassure Hizashi that he was loved and so was his voice.

     

    So maybe that was why it was so surprising when Shouta finally did say the words he'd never expected from him.

     

    (Or, Hizashi does not handle being told to shut up well.)

    Summary

    Loki looks down and Mobius sees his throat move as he swallows around the pain of what he has to stay. “I need to go now.”

    Mobius tightens his grip on Loki’s forearms, wants to rail against it, to refuse to let him go. But he knows he can’t. Or he could, but it would make no difference. Loki has to do this and is committed to, that is clear from every line of him: resolve and resignation in equal parts.

    So instead, Mobius wraps Loki in his arms once more, this less crushing embrace and more holding hug, and says, “Just come back.”

    Loki squeezes him once, whispers, “I will,” close to his ear, and then he’s gone, Mobius left holding onto nothing.

    A year's worth of time passes before Mobius sees Loki again.

    Summary

    “A toast,” Ted says, a hip leant against the kitchen counter, glass out expectantly. Trent takes his time as he slinks closer, raking his eyes across Ted’s form, mirroring his stance close enough that he can see Ted’s eyes twinkling in the glow of the oven.
    “To one last night,” Trent says with a tight smile, at the same time Ted beams, “Long may we continue.”
    “Jeez, TC, bringing the mood down before we’ve even begun.”

     

    or, Ted and Trent's final night in Richmond together.

    Summary

    Ted’s phone rings. He looks away from the window, where he was watching the tree sway in the wind, to see Beard’s face splashed over his phone screen. He thinks about not answering, but if he doesn’t answer then all he’ll have done today is run to CostCo for no reason. He doesn’t need eight pounds of almonds, but he has eight pounds of almonds.

    a.k.a. the post s3 fix-it where Ted does some intense mental healing.
