Summary
A series of stories set between the five years after season 6 and the finale, filling in the gaps of the relationship between Pacey and Joey, and the gang. The story starts out as canon compliant as a jumping off point from Joey Potter and the Capeside Redemption, but all bets are off after that. This is a story about Pacey and Joey rebuilding their friendship and discovering whether they are meant to be more.
The title is in reference to the song by the same name by Ingrid Michaelson, which reminds me of them during this time. On the album Slow the Rain if anyone has interest in giving it a listen. :)
Please note: I do not consent to have this work entered into any kind of AI bot or program, especially not to have it use this work to "create" another story. I can't stop you from doing it, but inputting someone else's content into AI gives it that work permanently, which it can now use in perpetuity. It may seem harmless, but it is stealing, and if it results in a plagiarized work being posted, I will report it.
(Sorry for the stern warning. I don't like doing it, but apparently this needs to be said.)

Summary
“Why?”
He hears Dr. Copley stumble to a halt. “Why what, Nicky?”
“Why did you…” He pauses, trying to find the words. He thinks of the newest resident in the hospital, the man with the wild curls and the sparks behind his eyes. He thinks of the way the man had moved like a dancer, the way his lips had snarled beneath that full beard. The way he’d fought and fought and fought. And the way they’d put him down. “Why did you put the fire out?”
Dr. Copley takes a while to answer. “Fires are dangerous,” he says slowly.
Nicky frowns. “Only if you’re afraid,” he whispers. He turns, tilting his head. “Are you afraid, Dr. Copley?”
Yusuf al-Kaysani has had many names. He’s lived more lives and has seen more sunrises than any other man. He’s outlived languages, seen the rise and fall of civilizations, and has walked beside death, always one step ahead. He knows who he is.
However, after waking up in an unknown facility in London, Joe is forced to question his entire existence. What had started as a poorly constructed nightmare now weaves thick tendrils through his thoughts, suffocating him until he can’t even trust his own mind.
He knows who he is.
But what if he doesn’t?

Summary
Nicolo Genova, or Nicky to his American friends, is just trying to get through his PhD program. He's writing his dissertation on Post-classical homoerotic poetry, but he cannot find anyone who speaks an extinct dialect of Arabic so he can translate a famed love poem by a little known poet, al-Kaysani.
Strangely enough, his friend knows a professor on campus who can translate the poem. What starts as a simple request for assistance on his dissertation blossoms into something that Nicky -- shy, reserved Nicky who abandoned his plans for the priesthood months before ordination -- had never imagined for himself: true love.
What he doesn't know is that Dr. Joseph Jones (his handsome, erudite, kind, lovely Joe) is harboring a secret too large for anyone to believe -- and that secret might just cost them everything.

Summary
Nicolo has a growing list of Things That No Longer Make Sense. They go as follows:
1) He can no longer die. Which, in itself, is pretty strange.
2) The man he killed multiple times is somehow, impossibly, like him.
3) He may or may not be having a crisis of faith.
4) His former enemy is treating him like a friend. Even defending him, the man that can't die.
5) And, most confusing of all, why does he like it when Yusuf smiles at him like THAT?- Language:
