Summary
Garrett’s used to being alone. He doesn’t need everyone around him all of the time. He's a wolf, and nothing like a total pushover wolf, like Dennis: give them a bone, and they lose all their edge. No, he’s a lone wolf. Totally badass and awesome, and completely unfazed by treats and belly rubs. Feral. Majestic.
To remind himself of the fact, he commissions a new jean jacket, this one with a totally sick airbrushed wolf on the back, and to make his point even pointier, he only gets one, ignoring the strange, sad crinkle in the corner of Steve’s sad, strange eyes.
Wherein Garrett faces a crisis of faith (in himself) and Steve invents (best) friends with benefits.

Summary
Cleave the pin (slang, 1595) To bring a man to orgasm.
It’s a sobering thought for someone facing middle age to wrestle with, this notion one might be less than appealing in bed, and while he’d always known he was no Don Juan, Stede thought himself perfectly adequate in the art of making love. But ‘perfectly adequate,’ when facing the prospect of reuniting with the man that may very well be the love of his life, feels (pathetic, mortifying, distressing) like a quandary.

Summary
“It’s okay, you know,” Gareth says, propped up against the brick alley of the Hawk.
Eddie’s crouched like a gremlin, shoveling popcorn into his mouth and trying to coax what he thinks is a cat out from under the dumpster. “What’s okay?” he says.
“To like. Like him. Harrington,” Gareth says, shoving his hands in his pockets. “I’ve seen him at Melvald’s and he’s, like, weirdly charming to everyone. He even looks like he means it.”
He does, Eddie thinks, which is what makes it so sinister. Whatever. This stretch of insanity will all be over with after the holidays, and he can go back to New York, live out his wildest dreams, and forget Steve Harrington ever took up any space in his brain at all.
Or,
Five years after the defeat of Vecna, Steve Harrington runs an animal sanctuary.

Summary
“How - ” Fraser cleared his throat. “How long is the contract?”
“Six months,” Ray told the stew.
“And will you,” he stopped. Ray heard the deep breath he took. Taking it on the chin, attaboy, Ben. “Are you planning to come back here, afterwards?”

Summary
You try your damnedest to burn it out, but Luke’s face sticks in your head. Lingers like a whiff of ozone, and no matter how hard you try to forget it when you close your eyes behind the visor of your helmet, there’s the haunting outline of his lips mapped out in your head like a constellation. His mouth. His eyes. His single bare hand, ever so gently cupped around Grogu’s body like he knew how important it was to you that he be touched like he was precious.
And it must have worked, because you let Grogu go with him. Maybe that’s why you can’t stop thinking about that moment—how it felt to hold unwavering and long sustained eye contact with a man for perhaps the first time in the whole of your lonely life.

Summary
Din’s heart is in his goddamned throat. Surely—surely, Luke Skywalker is not going to go change into the sexy outfit he wore to try and seduce the man who married his sister. Surely not. Din’s life wasn’t that ridiculous…or else it wasn’t ridiculous in that way. He could survive any number of things: blaster fire, his ship crashing, Imperial scouts, other bounty hunters. But he’s not sure he knows how to weather this particular storm. So in Luke’s absence, he lifts his helmet up just enough to suck down three burning gulps from the spotchka bottle, just to take the edge off of waiting for this impossible thing.
