Are you going to chase down this evil gran tomorrow?” Tim says.

“Are you going to Pride this year?”
Tim and Martin do the washing up, and discuss words, identity, and community. Nothing changes, but that's fine.

Summary
“So, where are we going?” asks Melanie, and Georgie looks over to her, watches the glow from the restaurant windows catch on the golden rings in her ears. Melanie’s voice is excited, and in the light the gold is warm and burnished. It looks like adventure.
Melanie and Georgie don't go on a date, quite, but they do go for dinner (and then they get chips)

Summary
To be fair to Sasha and her “snooping”, she doesn’t just want to work out why Martin fills out his forms with so little regard for academic protocol. The man’s sweet, and apparently perfectly friendly, and his tea is to die for. He just won’t talk to her, not really, won’t socialise much in the office at all and when he does it’s scattered and nervous, and Sasha’s used to people claiming she’s “intimidating”, too tall and too tenacious for half the academics she meets, but Martin doesn’t seem like that sort of arsehole. His nerves apply to Jon as much as they do to her, and he seems like he could use another friend with some archival experience. More than anything, Martin Blackwood is someone she’d like to understand.
It turns out I'm just very invested in the concept of Martin and Sasha being friends before it all went to shit

“You miss him.”
“Yes, well, he’d hate that, if he knew.”
The peace in the safehouse gives Jon some time to process, and grieve. It takes Martin a little longer.Series

Summary
Buck isn't supposed to be here. He knows this. That's what happens when you die — you're not meant to stick around for what comes after.

“I sent you flowers,” Quinn says, laughing. “I won a Golden Globe.”
Quinn Fabray has a pretty nice life. And then Rachel Berry shows up, again.

Summary
“You were drunk. I know it didn’t mean anything. Everything’s alright.”
Buck visibly winces. “That’s not — Eddie.”
There’s a suspended moment where Buck looks torn, standing on the edge of something, eyes fixed on the horizon to avoid looking at the drop, the precipitous canyon below. But then Buck, who can’t lie, who would tear his own chest open to a complete stranger on the street because the truth of him spills so loudly out of every jagged edge, sighs out:
“It meant something.”
There’s a ringing sound somewhere in the distance, getting closer. “What are you…” Eddie trails off.
“I wasn’t — well, I was drunk. But that wasn’t what. Wasn’t why. Not entirely, or — god.” Buck shudders in a breath, steeling himself. “I have feelings for you.” He closes his eyes. “I’m so sorry.”
~
Buck confesses his feelings. Eddie’s straight. If he spends all his time thinking about Buck and looking at Buck and wanting to be around Buck, well, that’s just being a good friend, isn’t it? He’s being so normal about this, actually.

Summary
Running to the frontlines from a childhood he never had. Taking a bat to the wall with his son in the next room. Having an affair with the spitting image of his dead wife.
Eddie knows he’s never been good at grieving, knows he’s never been good at losing what little he allows for himself in the first place. This is why he also knows his coping mechanisms can’t possibly get any worse.
Buck, as he so often does, makes him reevaluate his assumptions.

Evan Buckley dies behind a wall of glass. It’s a shame that when he’s revived not three minutes later, no one is informed.- Language:

Summary
“I just—I don’t want you to be alone,” said Eddie, softly, like an admission.
Join the fucking club, Buck thought. It was funny, but none of his laughs were coming out right tonight. “I am alone, Eddie.”
“Buck, I—”
“She wants my kidney.” There it went; Buck never could keep anything inside. Could never keep the feelings contained, could never stop them from spilling out over the people nearest him. “That’s what fucking happened, okay? My dad needs a kidney donor and they remembered why they bothered having me in the first place. Is that what you wanted to hear? That my parents finally found a use for me after all these years?”
-----
A request from his mom tears open old wounds for Buck. From 800 miles away, Eddie tries to stitch him back together.
