    Summary

    “Hello,” Ilya repeats, still kind of stuck on those freckles.

    “Hi?” the man says.

    “Hi,” Ilya says—again.

    Oh god, he's said hello three times now. He should literally say anything else. His name, probably. His phone number, preferably.

    “Hi,” Ilya says again, because he can’t help it. “I am—”

    “Are you Nick?” the man asks, and it comes out as a breathless sound.

    OR: Shane gets stood up on a blind date, and Ilya comes to the rescue, and proceeds to make a series of questionable decisions.

    Summary

    “It's embarrassing.”

    Robby glanced over. Whitaker was still facing the window, his hands twisted in the hem of his sweatshirt. 

    “If it’s got you this worked up, it must be important. I won't judge.” 

    Whitaker sighed. “I…I started dating someone. A guy. I met him on a dating app, and we’ve been together about a month.”

    Robby hummed in acknowledgement. He didn't speak yet, waiting for Whitaker to continue. 

    “The problem,” Whitaker muttered, “is that he’s…my first boyfriend. I'm 27 years old, and I've never kissed anyone before, let alone had sex. I've avoided the sex part this far—using work and being tired as excuses—but I'm seeing him this weekend and I can't…I know I can’t hold it off forever.”

     

    Whitaker is a virgin. Robby has a hard time saying no to his favorite resident. When Whitaker asks for help with his problem, what else is there for Robby to do?

    Summary

    [“Alexander, does it not scare you,” Magnus says at last. “Knowing that you can feel so strongly about someone that some part of you still believes you can hardly know? Because it terrifies me. Someone flitting into your life one day, out of the blue, and leaving you with no choice in the matter.”]

    Alec meets a man in his bathroom mirror who says he's from the other side of the world. Things spiral from there.
