Summary
She always realizes things too late, like a knee-jerk reflex triggering way after the hammer comes down, a clock eternally running an hour behind. She’s the walking, talking embodiment of don’t know what you’ve got ‘til it’s gone. She’s fucking stupid – but worse, she’s predictably fucking stupid.
Or, Frank gives up fighting for Laurel. Only then does she learn to fight for him.

Summary
What if, in another universe, I deserve you?
Hear me out. There’s this philosopher from the 1890s named William James, and he coined this theory about “the multiverse” which suggests that a hypothetical set of multiple universes comprises everything that can possibly exist simultaneously. Are you following? The entirety of space, time, matter and energy is all happening at once in different timelines: It’s the idea of parallel universes. […] If you think of it all this way, then it’s like neither of us did anything wrong.
You just found me in the wrong universe. That’s all. This is, as they say, the darkest timeline. Everywhere else, nay, “everywhen” else — us in the Civil War, us in Ancient Egypt, us in the swinging ’60s — we are happy.
Frank, Laurel, and all the universes that could’ve been.

Summary
Frank Delfino deals in lies and secrets and shady misdeeds. His job is to uncover the truth and help Annalise win cases by whatever means necessary, and often this role takes him to back alleys, seedy motels and places where there are few souls worth saving. Luckily, that’s not a problem for Frank. Nothing he’s seen has ever stopped him from getting the job done.
That is, until he meets ‘Lola’, a young stripper with enchanting blue eyes…
An S1 AU in which Frank and Laurel meet in less than ideal circumstances.

Summary
It’s easier than he expected, so much harder than he expected. No one knows him, no one knows he’s connected to the tiny boy with the stuttering breath, the tubes and wires and monitors snaking out of him like so many alien creatures. No one cares that he’s father to a dead, a dying child. No one gives him a second glance.
Or, Frank in the hospital. Post 4x08
