Summary
(And only the first mistake, and I-I'm two quarters and a heart down. And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds; these words are all I have, so I write them – so, you need them just to get by)
Upon arriving in York City to nab Arnold by joining the American Legion, Abraham – ever the gravedigger – takes the web of lies his life is founded on one step further by accidentally implicating Robert in his scheme. But what soldier wouldn't want a wife to have his back?

Summary
⌜Not that he feels like much of a woman, and he knows that she knows that, but for these purposes it does give him a leg up on a true (or at least cisgendered) man. Yet – when she starts the car and he turns his head to look out the window, he can’t shake the sick feeling that washes over him knowing that anyone (man, woman, or other) could commit such an atrocity, so he still doesn’t feel good about his own staked claim.⌟
AKA: five times where Hardy being butch feels like it causes problems for him + the one time it works in his favor.

Summary
“So, you’re not from around here?”
The Scot shakes his head with a furrow in his brow, surprised she didn’t realize that sooner.
“Hm, I guess that’s why you didn’t look familiar.” She deduces (A real Sherlock, he thinks sarcastically).
“Didn’t your mum tell you not to talk to strangers?” The furrowed brow lingers on his face.
“Yes, but it’s hard to be a stranger around here with how small of a town it is.” She shrugs. “Unless someone like you comes along.”(A young Scot visits Broadchurch on holiday and meets a strange girl who might make the trip worth it – in other words, a holiday meetcute.)

Summary
"The first time Abraham Woodhull met Robert Townsend, he was immediately certain that they would not be good friends."
War drags on in the United American Colonies, and General Washington demands intelligence. With the Culper operation growing in scope and importance, Benjamin Tallmadge orders Abraham Woodhull to make contact with an old acquaintance in York City. A decade of memories, simmering tempers, and buried feelings are brought to the surface when Abraham attempts to recruit his most elusive, irritating, and fascinating friend into the fold of Washington's spies.

Summary
He presses a hand to his chest, taking the moment to revel in the novel sensation of a normal, steady heartbeat. The slight pressure hurts, but it’s a different kind of hurt. He wonders, idly, if this is what healing pain feels like: closer to the surface than before, and more localized.
