    Summary

    "So should we start blocking off time in our calendar for dance lessons with Coach Diaz?"

    Eddie knows Karen means it as a joke, but the combination of the wine in his system and the joy in his gut make it feel serious, "Yes."

    "Wait, really?" Hen asks.

    "If she wants to dance, I'll teach her to dance. We had fun today," Eddie finishes his glass and notices he's probably at the point where he's drunk enough to talk about the Buck thing.

    "You don't have to do that Eddie. I'm sure we could pay for lessons somewhere," Karen offers.

    "Or we could pay you," Hen offers.

    "I have an idea for that actually," alright, Eddie, be brave, "I give Mara dance lessons and you both give me gay lessons."

    or

    When Mara becomes obsessed with ballroom dance Eddie becomes her teacher. Along the way he realizes he's in love with Buck, starts receiving "gay lessons" from Hen and Karen, and forms a ragtag dance academy. What could possibly go wrong?

    Summary

    “I don’t— I don’t want to talk about it, Percy,” she said.

    The words sounded wrong the moment they left her mouth. Percy blinked, and confusion crossed his face first before concern deepened into something softer and more alarmed.

    “Since when you don’t want to talk about something with me?”

    Something inside her snapped painfully at the question he asked, for reasons she wasn’t quite sure she understood. She was hurting and very irritable and she was on the verge of tears for so, so long now.

    “Since it’s your fault!” she snapped, her voice more defeated than loud.

    or,

    Annabeth’s plan for the evening was simple: survive Sally's movie premiere, avoid thinking too hard about Percy, and absolutely do not cry in formalwear.

    She fails spectacularly at all three.

    Summary

    Eddie's past comes for him with consequences. He and Buck are taken, dragged back into a violence Eddie thought he’d buried.

    Buck is broken piece by piece, and Eddie is left, forced to listen to the sounds of the second most important person in his world being torn apart, unable to scream, unable to save him.

    They live.
    But survival is not mercy.

    Summary

    “Maybe you don't have to-”

    “Uh-uh. No backtracking now.” Hayden pointed a finger at him. “If you tell Shane, fantastic. Would love that, quite frankly, but until you do, I want those goddamn pictures, Rozanov. Am I clear?” Ilya wanted to make some quip about Pike trying to get a different kind of picture out of him, but given the circumstances... He just nodded. “Good. My kids tragically love the fuck out of you, so figure this out.” Ilya nodded again. “Alright then.”

    Silence followed. Ilya eventually got up, and Hayden awkwardly walked him to the door.

    “Ilya,” he said, surprising him with the first name. “I know what I say doesn’t particularly matter, and I am mainly just a fail-safe for this situation, but…” He opened the front door and clicked his tongue. “For what it’s worth, you’re a good guy and don’t deserve the shit your brain apparently puts you through.”

    "I'm a married man, Pike."

    Or

    Ilya’s depression shifts into some self-harming tendencies, despite how well he can justify most of it. An unexpected cavalry comes together.
