    Summary

    Mike knows that he’s staring, that his jaw has dropped from shock, and most ridiculously of all in the silence that follows Harvey’s declaration the only thing Mike can hear in his head is Mary Poppins’ voice saying close your mouth please, Michael, we are not a codfish.
    So Mike makes the concerted effort to close his mouth, and then after a few more painfully awkward seconds Mike says, “I’m sorry, can you repeat that?”
    Harvey sighs heavily. “I think we should get married.”

    Summary

    Deep had shaved—his face, his body, his head. He looked like a shell. Heavy bags colored under his eyes and his torso… Homelander avoided acknowledging Deep's gills whenever possible. That said, he had still seen Deep's gills more than once and knew what they were supposed to look like—and it was not the dark red bruising that marred his left side.

    “What the fuck happened to you?” Homelander demanded.

    “Nothing,” Deep mumbled and scooted past Homelander to get to the bedroom.

    (or, Homelander visits Deep in Sandusky after he is assaulted by the fan girl and helps him though it...)

    Summary

    Jack Abbot is beyond exhausted when he finds a med student crying in the hallway. So far past dealing with the crying that he tries to convince the med student to a marriage of convenience just to stop the tears. The longer he thinks on it though, the more he realizes that marrying the little mouse, Dennis Whitaker, might actually make sense.

    Robby is convinced Jack is having a mid life crisis. Or a nervous breakdown. Or petty revenge for his disappointment in Robby sleeping with Collins. Regardless, he doesn’t know how to help the med student Jack is marrying.

    Dennis can’t keep doing this. He’s homeless, broke, and about to have to drop out of med school when he’s so close to finishing. If an ER attending is going to offer a guest room to crash in and covering the expenses of med school, he might just go ahead and marry him. He can always figure things out later, right?

    Summary

    When the unsentimental financial imperative of the NHL sees Shane traded to the Boston Raiders, he and Ilya are thrown into closer extended proximity than ever before. As they adjust to life as teammates, they are forced to contend with the nature of their relationship -and must answer for themselves: is it even a relationship at all?
    ____

    Sliding down the wall, Shane hunched over his untied sneakers, shoved on hastily when Coach had called him in for a meeting after morning skate.

    “Boston wanted you specifically. I’ve already spoken to their GM. You’re flying this evening or tomorrow morning: I’ll confirm once the paperwork clears.”

    “Mom,” Shane managed.

    “Oh sweetie. I know, okay. Those fuckers, how dare they do this! Two fucking cups! Now all of a sudden they decide they want a reset and you’re going to fund it.”

    Shane put his head between his knees and tried to breathe. God, Boston. They hated him there; it was so far away; he was fucking their captain.

    Summary

    “Oh, right – Alhaitham.” Kaveh claps a hand to his forehead. “Cyno, if you see him at the Akademiya tomorrow, don’t mention this to him, would you? I haven’t told him yet.”

    “Told him?” Cyno asks slowly, a wary glint in his eye. “What exactly haven’t you told him?”

    “That I’m getting married,” Kaveh grimaces. “I wanted to tell him myself – I suppose I do want him at the wedding after all, you know – but I didn’t get a chance yet. You know what it’s like, trying to have a conversation with him.”

     

    It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.
    Kaveh is a single man. That's about it, really.

     

    or: the one in which Kaveh gets married, but not to whom you think.
