Summary
It wasn’t Gem at the door, though. It was a customer—a frantic-looking man around his age, with dark skin and woolly hair—bursting through the door. The fluffy, blue jumper he wore told Mumbo the morning chill hadn’t eased off yet. He was panting heavily, having clearly just been running, but his eyes locked onto Mumbo’s with a startling intensity.
“Hey, plant guy. What kind of flowers would you get for a dog’s birthday party?”
Mumbo is a florist, and BigB is a customer who keeps coming back to buy flowers. It's been four days now. He's starting to get concerned.

“Oh, look at you.” B gave a low chuckle. “You’re all flustered.”

Even more unfortunately, it's drag night at the Fairy Fort, and BigB is in the most distracting outfit he's ever seen.

Summary
Mumbo couldn’t remember the last time he’d eaten.
There was a stale croissant on his desk, still in its cafe-branded paper bag. Grian had dropped it off this morning—Yesterday morning, Mumbo corrected himself, glancing at the clock—and he’d brushed it to the side of his desk, swept up in the last-day panic. For the past week, he’d been tunnel-visioned; everything in the world a distant blur, closing in around his thesis submission deadline.
11:59pm on Friday. It was currently 1am on Saturday.
Burnt-out university student Mumbo has a panic attack after missing his thesis deadline. Fortunately, Scar is there to take care of his best friend.

Summary
The pot plant he’d given Mumbo that night had sprouted three new shoots since then, despite the swift approach of winter. As the baby leaves unfurled, he and BigB stumbled through milestones together: a tentative first kiss at the Fairy Fort. Mumbo’s first time sleeping at B’s apartment. A breakfast photo posted to his story, their interlocked fingers just visible in frame. The first time B had slid a thumb under Mumbo’s waistband, and he’d murmured a shaky yes. If Mumbo was being honest, it didn’t feel real; it felt more like a halcyon memory. Something he’d cling to when it all went wrong.
Maybe that was it—if he asked, and B said no, then it would go wrong.
Four times BigB doesn't ask Mumbo to officially be his boyfriend, and one time Mumbo finds out why.

Summary
If someone had told BigB six months ago that he’d be spending Christmas Eve at his boss’ house, he probably would’ve laughed them off. He was much more comfortable in his own space, where he had no obligations and no-one to entertain. But now, as he took in the motley assortment of coworkers and plus-ones in Lizzie’s living room, he couldn’t imagine it any other way.
Lizzie and Joel host a Secret Santa, and everyone surprises everyone.
