    Summary

    “Your father,” Dan said. “He’s the lord of this manor?”

    “The Lord of Rossendale, yes,” Phil replied.

    “I thought they were going to send me a handmaiden.”

    “They were, but I thought it best that I come instead, given your station as a knight.”

    For some reason, that made Dan’s eyes clench shut, and then she threw her head back to look up at the ceiling. “Given my —”

    “And I had to meet you,” Phil added quickly.

    ___

    It's 1138, and Civil War is stirring in England. In the North, rumors of a Scottish invasion have begun to spread. Dan is a knight whose disguise as a man has recently fallen to pieces. Phil is the odd daughter of a country lord. They fall in love. This is a story about some of those things.

    Summary

    He drives to the airport with an unshakeable urge to pull over and turn around. He smokes four cigarettes in a row before he boards the plane, then chews an entire pack of gum on the flight to try and cover the worst of the smell.

    He exits the airport half-hoping that Shane has chickened out of the whole thing. Then he spots him, tapping his fingers against the steering wheel in the most boring suburban dad car Ilya has ever had the misfortune of laying his eyes on, and he’s so happy to see him that his legs feel unsteady beneath his weight.

    --

    Or, the cottage, Ilya's version: an extended ep 6 featuring my take on what happened in the gaps we didn't see.

    Summary

    “My– my name is Phil Lester,” he says and he shouldn’t. He shouldn’t pause to wait for a response, to wait for recognition, but he does.

    There is none.

    “I need some– I need some legal advice?”

    “Yes, that is sort of what I figured when you called my law firm."

    Phil wakes up in an alternate reality where Dan and he have never met and does the only thing he can think of doing: Finding Dan.

    (And then not stopping to bother him.)

    Summary

    Jamie's the best matchmaker ever--Roy and Keeley are gonna be back together before they even realize what's hit them. He's also, maybe, possibly fucking Roy on the side, but that's just until Roy gets back with Keeley and everything goes back to normal. Yente shit, like. (Note: This is not what anybody else thinks is going on, like, at all.)

    In which Roy tries to be a good boyfriend to someone who doesn't know he has a boyfriend, Keeley and Jamie can't figure out who's stealing Roy from whom, and Jamie ponders the ethics of plagiarizing a blowjob for the greater good and learns to cook in the meantime. A comedy of errors.
