    Summary

    "You want me to go?"

    That's the last thing Jack wants. "Stay, please, you know you're always welcome."

    Robby relaxes, and he carries on stirring

    Jack interrupts the quiet once more with the other question that's been on the tip of his tongue.

    "Why haven't you left?"

    Robby freezes. He doesn't turn around, doesn't look at Jack, like it's easier to be honest this way.

    "Because I think if I go, I won't come back."

    ******

    After the end of 2x15. Robby turns up at Jack's house instead of going on his sabbatical and then just....doesn't leave

    Summary

    Five times Robby and Jack kiss for plausibly deniable, purely platonic, eminently explicable reasons; and one time it’s, perhaps, slightly more difficult to explain away.

    Why Robby thought he could get away with simply going to a ball game with his good buddy is beyond him. He should have known there was some sort of cosmic power set against him; a constant portent of misfortune hanging on his brow, following his steps like a particularly prickly house cat, tripping his gait at every available turn. Murphy’s Law ought to be renamed, frankly. Robinavitch’s Law might have less of a ring to it but at the very least, it certainly rings true.

    All this to say, when the Kiss Cam becomes unerringly trained upon the figures of Robby and Jack way out in the edge of the stands, he should be less surprised than he is.

    Summary

    While working on his bike, an accidental fire renders Robby without use of his hands for at least a week. Good thing Jack’s got two hands, approximately a hundred favors to call in, and enough stubbornness to deal with an injured Robby for as long as needed for his recovery.

    Summary

    Pretty much what it says on the tin. And despite the warnings, this really is pretty fluffy, I swear.
