    Summary

    "He laughs so hard that his normally steady hands shake a little as he spoons sugar into his coffee. “Oh, we’re having a sleepover now, are we? Where’s my nightie and my pillow fight?”
    “That can be arranged,” Peg grins over the rim of her cup without missing a beat."

    Or: With BJ gone for an overnight shift at the hospital, Peg and Hawkeye come to an understanding and embrace the age-old friendship ritual known only as: the sleepover.

    Summary

    “Hello, Mr. Grace,” she said, not bothering to extend her hand out to greet him, “I’m Eva Stratt with the Petrova Taskforce which, if you are not otherwise aware, operates in tandem with the United Nations."

    Oh? The Petrova Taskforce? A short while before he’d fucked off to somewhere, Ryland had explained to Colt something about the Petrova Line, so it sounded distantly familiar. And incredibly not important to anything Colt would ever be involved in.

    He was confused.

    “Uh. Hi. You already know my name, so…”

    She raised an eyebrow for half a second, then lowered it again.

    “It was given to me by your brother, Dr. Ryland Grace.”

     

    (Ryland isn't taking care of himself. Eva Stratt enlists his twin brother Colt to do it for him.)

    Summary

    Three times Ryland Grace being sick is met with indifference + one time a sentient rock takes it very seriously.

    ~

    “Hi,” he says, trying out the word. He sounds snotty and sleepy. “Sorry to bother you. I think… I-I think someone el-else needs to watch my group.”

    There’s silence on the other end.

    “Why?” is all that comes next.

    Inconvenience.

    He’s always an inconvenience.

    Ryland sucks in a deep breath that leaves him coughing. “I don’t feel… I d-don’t feel very well, and… I t-threw up, and I…”

    His voice gives out before he can finish.
