Summary
“What happened, Alex?”
The question breaks the spell that had settled over them. Alex finally pulls away, using his sleeves to wipe the moisture off his face, and then shakes his head.
“You know if I could tell you, I would.”
“What does that mean?”
Alex huffs. “You’re a smart guy. Figure it out.”
Yeah, he’s a smart guy. But with things like classic English authors, or old man activities like Sudoku or Mahjong all wrapped up in an afghan, or when it comes to picking out a matching rug for their couch. And yes, he’s good at riddles, but not the kind flung at him by beautiful Latino roommates mid-breakdown.
______
Or, Alex is sexually assaulted at a party and spirals.

Summary
“She truly is your daughter, Alex,” Henry sighs, defeated.
“Fuck off, sweetheart,” he laughs, a soundbite of the sun. Henry forces himself not to physically react, the term of endearment sweet and menacingly familiar coming from Alex’s lips. It’s been years. “You know they’re useful.”
“Ah yes, eyelashes, truly a formidable instrument in managing international relations.”
Alex grins, and Henry is too late to catch the slightest downward lilt on the corner of his mouth, “Worked on you once, didn’t it?”
Oh, did that ache.
(Much had happened since the time Henry had told Alex to leave. Alex had passed the bar, gotten married, had the most beautiful daughter. And Henry, well. He stayed right where he was.)

Summary
The man starts to cock the hammer of gun, and Alex squeezes his eyes shut, his lower lip trembling almost imperceptibly.
“Stop!” Henry shouts, his voice cracking. “I’ll give you whatever you want, I’ll do anything…just please, don’t hurt him.”
Alex’s eyes fly open, shooting Henry the same incredulous look that he gave him in the hallway, and Henry knows he’s shown too much of his hand, revealed a part of himself that he’d sworn he would take to his grave, but he’s too full of fear and desperation to feel self-conscious about it now. He can deal with the consequences when they get out of this.
If they get out of this.
******
What if the moment in the hospital wasn’t a false alarm and the publicity surrounding the forced bromance between Alex and Henry had the adverse effect of them being kidnapped together?

Summary
When they get to the room that’s supposed to be his, Alex’s luck runs out.
Leo and his mom go inside first. Alex pushes the door open behind them, steps one foot into the room, and freezes.
Because someone is already in there. A tall, faintly transparent, glowing someone, sitting on the ledge of the windowsill on the far side of the room, one knee pulled up toward his chest with his arms loosely wrapped around it, the other leg dangling down to the floor.
******
All Alex wants is to spend a relaxing summer in England with his family. There's just one catch - he can see ghosts, and Henry is haunting his bedroom.

Summary
Ellen walks around the desk to stand directly in front of him. “You’re not a carpenter, Fox. You’re a ranger. If we’re all going down anyway, wouldn’t you rather go down fighting? Not cowering behind a wall?”
Henry bristles, the words striking a nerve. “I gave you my answer,” he says, jutting his chin out defensively. “I’m sorry you wasted your trip here.”
He’s about halfway to the door by the time she speaks again.
“He needs you, Henry.”
Henry freezes.
“What are you talking about?” he says, slowly turning around to face her. There’s no question of who she is referring to — but that person made it clear long ago that he doesn’t need anything from Henry.
******
Henry and Alex were best friends in the jaeger pilot training program, until misunderstandings and miscommunications drove them apart. In the final days of the war against the kaiju, can they put their differences aside and find a way to work together again to save the world?

Summary
If you could have anything in the world, anything at all, what would it be?
Alexander Claremont-Diaz has clawed his way into Hollywood despite all the hurdles in his way, and now he's starring in his dream movie—a queer romcom adapted from one of his favorite books, Roses, Wisteria, and Royal Bluebells. However, he barely has the chance to be excited before he finds out who his costar is. The privileged, white, bigoted Henry Fox-Mountchristen-Windsor.
The last thing Alex wants is to be associated with Henry more than he already has to, but a fateful interview and a few choice words against Henry turns him into enemy number one in Hollywood. To fix it, he has to pretend to be Henry's best friend and show the entire world his comments were nothing but friendly banter. However, as he gets inevitably tangled up in Henry's life, he realizes not everything is as it seems, and Henry might be hiding his own demons that might change everything.
