Summary
He feels an aching in his chest, loves him like a bruise. It’s been there for so long, since high school probably, mottled and discolored but right at the surface. If Coyote even touches it he’s done for; he’s gotta show Coyote how long he’s been bleeding just below the skin.
“So, you need something, Jake?”
Hangman nods, stepping off the small porch and onto the sand. He gestures for Coyote to follow.
“Walk with me?”

Summary
“You lookin’ to stay behind me, Rooster? If you’re staring at my ass, you’ve just gotta ask,” he says to him, turns around from where they’re running laps, punishment for arguing in the first place. He loves to rile him up, make him verbalize his frustrations. Hangman–because it’s Hangman, now, stopped being Jake a long time ago–doesn’t always mean to flirt with him, condescend to him in the same breath but when he does it sure is fun.
Bradshaw’s breathing a little heavier, maybe, but cuts him off anyways.
“As if. You wish.”

Summary
“Look, I know I’m not the nicest to you, Garcia, but you can’t get yourself killed on my account.”
Fanboy shoves him, hard, enough for him to stumble back, feet banging against the carrier. He doesn’t fall, though, rights himself almost immediately and Fanboy is laughing despite the fact they could’ve died, even though the person standing in front of him talking shit has consistently been the absolute worst to him.
And in that moment, Hangman thinks he gets it—why other people gravitate toward Mickey Garcia like the sun shines out of his ass—because it kinda does, with Fanboy grinning at him.
“If not on your account, then whose, Bagman?”

Summary
But hell, he wasn’t about to tell his fellow pilots the good news that Hangman had finally settled down – in a manner of speaking – and finally met the one. That last part not being an exaggeration had him turning mid-air, flown through the jetwash, unrecoverable spin.
He couldn’t pull the fucking eject.

Summary
“Sometimes the mission isn’t everything, Alenko,” he says as he leaves Kaidan alone in the hallway. The Normandy seems eerily silent around him, and Kaidan wonders not for the first time what anything related to Vakarian means.
Garrus makes Kaidan feel something, and then he's gone.

Summary
“It’s the drama of it all.”
“There’s no drama. You just don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Sombra bristles at that. Before she can assert herself, Akande jumps in.
“No more!”
There is no more. She’s still totally a vampire though.

Summary
“Sir,” Fanboy spoke, a hint of confusion in his voice that mirrored Payback’s own, “we’re being called back stateside... for a mission?”
“Not just any mission,” the commander huffed. “You’re being called back to Top Gun.”

Summary
About three days into training, he tunes out the bench-press contests and the backhanded compliments as easily as turning down a dial in the box. He turns the dial on Fanboy way up.
Can be read as a prequel/companion piece to my Rooster/Hangman fic "Buzz the Tower."

Bookmarker's Notes
He has a dream that human Angela Lansbury runs Hangman over with her car at full speed. He wakes up feeling extremely refreshed. He stretches between his sheets and smiles, thinking about Fanboy.

Bookmarker's Notes
Like he’d just see the gap Coyote left behind as another spot opening up for the mission. Not a jagged, gaping hole that’d be impossible to fill. Not the end of his fucking world.
“If you died,” he says, and the words fall out of his mouth before he can catch them and change them to something a little less honest, “I’d be a fucking wreck.”
