Summary
Dave is with some friends on a beach trip post-SBURB, when Bro somehow manages to return. Naturally, everything goes to shit.
This is a 5 year old fic I decided to release into the world, so I'm sorry for the bad description, I really don't know what was going on anymore. I might continue it at some point, but I don't remember where I was going.

Summary
“Did…” Nureyev seems to search for the right way to phrase his next question. Finally he says, “Did your previous partners…not lie with you like this, after a scene?”
Juno’s mind flashes to the smooth plane of Diamond’s back, lit by the slatted window of their apartment. Sometimes they’d clean up, curl up under the covers, and fall asleep before Juno could snap out of his stupor. Other days they’d wait for him at the kitchen table. It was a bit of a ritual: Juno would come down from the high, clean up, and meet them for some tea or a snack.
In the present, Juno shrugs one shoulder. “I mean, uh. No? Maybe a couple times. Why would they?”
Something like fear crosses Nureyev’s face. “Juno. Do you know what aftercare is?”

Summary
“I’m sorry I can’t say it,” Juno whispers.
Peter feels his body go very still. He has one arm laced over Juno’s shoulders, far enough that his hand rests crooked over Juno’s pec; once he’s regained control of his limbs, he tightens his grip. With his free hand he sets his comms onto the bedside table. He peers down at Juno where he rests tucked against his torso, gaze pinned on the far wall. He can feel the tension and misery roll off him like smoke from a chimney.
Peter fishes Juno’s hand out from under the covers. He threads their fingers. “You don’t need to. I already know.”
Juno still won’t look at him. “You deserve to hear me tell you anyway.”

Summary
“You’ll tell me if it gets bad again, though, right? Like you did before. You can always come to me," Juno says.
“Of course,” Nureyev replies. “I promise I will.”
The mood is, of course, thoroughly killed. They both clean themselves up and change into pajamas, and Nureyev excuses himself to his own room. Juno kisses him goodnight before he goes and gives him that look, the infuriatingly kind one that says, You’ve got me.
That says, I love you.
That says, No matter how late it is or how bad you’re feeling, I’ll always be there to take the knife from you if you need me to.
They’d had a very intense conversation back when they’d reunited for the second time, and Nureyev had reassured Juno that there would be no more broken promises. No more lies.
But lying is all Nureyev has ever known how to do.

Summary
Peter meets Juno when he's still with the HCPD...and Diamond.
__
The officer holds up a plastic cup. “Water?”
Ah—the gruff voice from before. Peter knows better than to refuse. He sits up, then shudders from his toes to his fingertips. His ribs feel like a battered marimba. He does his best to fold away the worst of the pain, crosses his legs and holds out his hand. The officer passes him the cup. Peter drinks.
“Come to play good cop, have we?” Peter asks once he’s done.
The officer plucks the empty cup out of his hand. “Pretty sure we both know that’s an oxymoron, but thanks for the vote of confidence."
