Summary
It’s the spring of ‘97 when Michael Robinavitch is dragged into a gay bar for the very first time.
When he meets Jack Abbot there, the two of them are on the cusp of radically different futures: Robby is about to begin his residency, and Jack is leaving for the army. They know better than to get attached - know the timing is wrong, the goodbye inevitable - but something tender takes root anyway. Through every deployment, Jack thinks of Robby more than he ought to; through every failed relationship, Robby wonders about what might've been.
Years later, when their paths cross again at PTMC, the past resurfaces — and though they’re older, more jaded, and scarred in different ways, they find themselves pulled towards everything they left unfinished.

Summary
What if, after his disastrous reunion with Kaidan Alenko on Horizon, Shepard decides he'd been manipulated enough by Cerberus and takes matters into his own hands? What if he decides there's a way to get out from under The Illusive Man's thumb, take back the Normandy, and continue the mission against the Collectors on his own terms? After a clandestine meeting with Kaidan, Shepard's plan takes shape, setting up an early confrontation with Miranda Lawson and those who choose loyalty to Cerberus over the bigger picture.
i.e.
What if the dialogue on Horizon wasn't... extremely meh, and what if Shepard actually had some volition in ME2 to be consistently anti-space!Nazi? What happens if you resurrect Lazarus and he doesn't do what you want?

Summary
Robby sighed, and shook his head, hands scrubbing at his beard. “A wiser man would say that we’re using casual intimacy to hide from the emotional turmoil we should be working out in therapy,” Robby called out as Jack walked out the door.
The other man barked out a laugh. "Yeah, and when you find him, tell him I said hi."
(Or: Robby can't sleep, Jack decides to help. It goes exactly as well as you'd expect.)

Summary
Matt wonders, just for a second, if Frank would stop if he knew who was standing over him. If that recognition would change anything.
He isn’t sure it would.
(Or: Matt and Frank cross paths earlier in their lives. Things get complicated. Obviously.)
