    Summary

    There were universal truths. Slice a man open, he’ll bleed. Push him, he’ll fall. Stop his heart, he’ll die.

    What did it make a man who broke the rules? More than human? Less?

    Or: An operation gone wrong lands Hawkeye square in the middle of a medical mystery he'd rather not be participating in.

    Summary

    July 1970: BJ & Hawkeye's Vegas wedding (complete with unconventional wedding party), 20 years of emotional baggage to be unpacked, Erin goes to summer camp.

    (sequel to both sides now)

    “You want to invite your ex‐wife and her husband to our wedding,” Hawkeye said.

    BJ shrugged. He felt every jealous impulse seep out of his body. He was an adult. He’d navigated all sorts of complicated interpersonal relationships. They were cool, modern people, weren’t they? Hawkeye was, at least. He’d always been.

    “If you’re inviting your ex, shouldn’t I get to invite mine?” BJ said.

    Hawkeye sat down on the bed again. He put his feet up and rubbed at his bad knee.

    “Is this some sort of game of chicken, Beej? You’re telling me you’d be just fine with Trapper as my best man?” Hawkeye said.

    “Completely fine, the very definition of fine,” BJ said, brightly, lying through his teeth.

    Summary

    "Now the world seems open and full of unknown things. And so quickly, too. He feels like if he acts it'll be reckless. And it's very, very easy to be reckless around Hawkeye. The man practically invented the term for him when he escorted BJ around Korea in a stolen Jeep."

    Summary

    1955 was curling in on itself, desiccating like a pillbug. Summer had passed. Autumn was well underway, leaves browning and San Francisco fog creeping in denser all the time, when he’d got the call. Daniel Pierce, more perplexed than worried, asking if he’d spoken with Hawkeye lately, and if he had, did he know anything about—and BJ had asked him to repeat himself three times—about ghosts?

    ///

    Or: In October of 1955, Hawkeye and BJ reunite to search for the supernatural, among other intangibilities.

    ///

    Alternately: Everything dies more brilliantly in Maine.
