Inspired by "30" by Zach Hood.
“I hope they see me at 30.”

Summary
JJ didn’t think much of it. He really didn’t. He grew to find the pit in his stomach comforting, the growl of his belly satisfying and cold. It made sense to him. As fucked up as it felt, his almost liked it.
John B did not like it. He did not like being able to see the etches of JJ’s bones and the stretch of his skin. He did not like hearing the growl of his stomach or watching the bags under his eyes sink deeper. In fact, he hated it. Loathed it. Wished for anything other than what he saw his best friend was going through.
The two sit in comfortable silence, a silence so pure that neither make a move to speak. John B waits. He's waited before, and he'll wait again. He'll always wait for JJ.
*
In which JJ is searching for control, and he finds it in the wrong place. Luckily, he has John B (and all of his people) to help piece him back together.

“You had the same expression on your face as I do when I’m about to do something impossibly dumb,” JJ says.
“Lucky for you I’m not JJ Maybank.”
“Right,” he says, “I don’t mean stupid as in piss-off-everyone stupid, I mean stupid as in the-people-who-care-about-me-will-be-upset-if-I-do-it stupid.”
or, JJ and Sarah bond over shitty families

Summary
JJ opened one eye at her and smirked, “Somethin’ botherin’ you this fine evening?”
“Oh, you know, just homeless, hungry, poor, no family, and John B and I got in a fight ‘cause he keeps acting so weird … other than that, everything’s just peachy.” Sarah looked at him, turning her head to see him looking at her with a sad expression. It was an expression she’d never only really seen on JJ once before, it was a face of recognition.
“Welcome to the club,” JJ pulled his hat down over his eyes as he said, “too broke to be Kook, and apparently now, too orphaned to be a Pogue.”
Or, Sarah doesn't go with Topper. Instead, she goes back to the chateau where she finds JJ waiting for John B to come home.
OR Sarah chose one small different path that changes the trajectory of every one of the Pogue's lives.
or... Sarah just really ships Kie and JJ and will be JJ's therapist if it means he stops being an idiot and tells her he loves her. Lots of jiara, lots of pogues being pogues.
