    Summary

    “Bring everything,” Jack demands. “Send Collins, Mohan, Langdon, King— I want anyone even a little bit useful up here right now, Dana—”

    “They’re coming,” Dana tells him down the other end, through the chaos he can hear, shouting voices and scrambling action. It’s such an eerie counterpoint to the thunder-rumbling silence up here on the roof that Jack’s stomach turns as he ducks for two more rescue breaths. “How bad is it?”

    Jack pushes his fingers to Robby’s throat again and still finds nothing. His face is so white when he cups it between his hands, probing for anything, the slightest flutter of a pulse, and he can’t find it. Nothing.

    “Bad,” he tells her. The phone slips from between his cheek and shoulder to crack on the rooftop.

    or: robby gets struck by lightning one night when jack meets him up on the roof.

    Summary

    “What the hell happened?”

    “What happened, Michael,” Jack answers, hard, as if Robby can’t see the broken-open expression on his face, “is you got yourself hit by about five thousand pounds of steel and dropped out on me—”

    “Shit,” Robby curses. “Jack— I’m sorry. You okay?”

    Jack laughs without much humor in it. “Are you— Are you kidding me? Seriously? Your heart stopped on my table, you’re asking if I’m fucking okay?”

    “Yeah, I am,” Robby says, because if it’d been Jack without a pulse on his table, he knows he would not be anywhere near okay.

    Summary

    Maybe if the video ended there, Shane thought, it would be okay. Okayish. Still incriminating. Still a fucking disaster. Still embarrassing, to have his breakup with this beautiful actress filmed and disseminated on Reddit of all fucking places, but not a nail in his coffin, burying him alive. But the video didn’t end there.

    “Can I ask if you’ve ever been with another guy?” she had to ask.

    And he, tears visible in his eyes, had to nod.

    Just once. Just a single nod.

    Why did he have to nod?

    “Have you ever told anyone that before?” He shook his head. “Was it different? With a guy?”

    “Of course.”

    Of course.

    “Was it better?”

    “Yes.”

    +++

    Shane’s conversation with Rose is secretly recorded. Months later, after the All-Star game and Ilya’s confession in Russian, the video gets leaked online. Shane is outed to the world while Ilya is in Russia, and must now finish the 2016-2017 season with the entire world in on his secret.

    Summary

    Sherlock fled London a couple of years after John left him in hospital with nothing but an old walking stick and a half-hearted goodbye.

    Rosie grew up thinking that Sherlock died when he committed suicide in front of her father by jumping from Barts' roof.

    So it's somewhat awkward when they run into each other in a Sussex general store between the loaves of bread and the Mars bars...
