Summary
It’s that time of year again, when two very different worlds flood the city’s most iconic bar.
On one side, fighter pilots, home from the skies, adrenaline still coursing through their veins. While on the other, Broadway stars, fresh from sold-out shows and still humming with applause.
Dean and Castiel used to walk the halls of the Air Force Academy together. Now they stand on opposite ends of two very different stages. Dean in the cockpit, Castiel under the spotlight.
Nothing could go wrong, of course. They practically hate each other. At least, that’s what they keep telling themselves.
Until their eyes meet across the crowded bar, and the past comes rushing back like a storm neither of them is ready to face.

Summary
“You can’t actually be lost in a maze," Kitty says. "Not in any real way. It’s a map of fixed boundaries. You can only find your way to the wrong part. Wrong part at the wrong time. That’s when the ghost swallows you in Pac-Man.”
Colin pushes his glasses up and presses the heels of his hands into his eyes. “That doesn’t help.”
“You two saw an exit. Stefan made his choice, didn’t he?”
_____
Colin thinks he may have figured out how to break out of the cosmic boundaries. How to stop being Pac-Man, how to have a choice that’s truly free.
The key is Stefan.

Summary
In every single timeline, no matter where he is or what he does differently, there isn’t a single universe where Colin Ritman doesn’t fall completely and madly in love with Stefan Butler.
Stefan with his mild nature, stormy mind, and uncertain steps. The nervous boy who pulls Colin down to earth and matches his intellect while maintaining his humility. A meek mouse of a boy who will wander in his imagination for hours on end if you don’t keep a close eye on him.
In every timeline, Stefan is there and there is no avoiding him. They’re drawn to each other. If Colin doesn’t find Stefan then Stefan finds him.
