    Summary

    Eddie had always expected that he would find his soulmate through the snap of a broken guitar string, or the needle burn of his tattoos. Instead, Billy Hargrove breaks a plate over Steve’s Harrington’s head and Eddie finds himself tied to a boy he knows only through the lens of the high school hierarchies.

    Almost a year later, Eddie has spent time learning everything he can about Steve - the way he thinks, the things that send him into a panic he can't - or won't - explain, the look in his eyes before he says something heinously bitchy and devastatingly funny. He and Uncle Wayne have found themselves permanent seats at Victoria Harrington’s Sunday Dinners, and Eddie can almost ignore the rabbit pace of his heart when Steve smiles at him.

    Except that Steve has gone missing, had bailed on their plans for the Fourth of July weekend without a word and this would be fine, really, except…

    Eddie’s getting bruises that aren’t his own and Victoria hasn’t seen her son in days.

    While Eddie's injuries get steadily worse, he and Victoria scramble across town to try and find Steve and save him from whatever nightmare situation he landed in before it’s too late.

    Summary

    Monday-Wednesday-Friday 8:00 AM-9:00 AM: Intro to Sociology (SOC-101)
    Instructor: Shane Hollander, PhD (Social Science) — Professor of Sociology
    Room: Coulson 121

    Monday-Wednesday-Friday 8:00 AM-9:00 AM: Russian 1 (RUS-101)
    Instructor: Ilya Rozanov, PhD (Psychology) — Professor of SLA Russian
    Room: Coulson 122

    •••

    Professor Hollander is the kind-hearted, mild-mannered professor of Sociology that students learn quickly to love. Dr. Rozanov is the gruff, curt Russian language instructor that students learn to love a little more slowly. Their bitter rivalry is the stuff of campus legend.

    (Yeah, right.)

    Summary

    What happens when Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander—sole survivors of the human race—wind up bumping into each other in space? Lots of fucking, bickering, and coming up with ridiculous ways to compete with each other. So, same as any other timeline.

    Summary

    No serious hockey fan or sports commentator worth their salt would have considered record-breaking Boston superstar Ilya Rozanov to be Shane Hollander’s rival exactly, but sleeping with a man who had a specific offense-related vendetta against him and a wrist shot like a jet engine to back it up was probably ill-advised just the same.

    Or, Shane is a goalie. Ilya can’t score.

    Summary

    “You okay?” Mike asks him. 

    Will turns to look at Mike. The light of the TV is projected on the side of his face, bathing his skin in greens and oranges. Sometimes Will feels like the secret to digging himself out of the wreckage of his childhood is hidden in Mike. There are days when the only thing that can dull the sharp pressure of grief in his ribs is Mike’s presence at his side; steady, thrumming. Will knows the day when he will have to detach himself is coming fast, but here in this basement, where nothing has changed in over a decade, time seems to have come to a screeching halt. It’s just the two of them, sat in the last place they were innocent together.  

    “Yeah,” Will whispers, “I’m okay.” 

    or; The Party's senior year of high school, in ebbs and flows.
