    Summary

    “I've seen that face before. It’s the face of someone who can’t see a way through anymore.”
    It hurt to say, and based on Robby’s expression, it hurt to hear. Jack watched as his friend’s face filtered through an array of emotions, everything from hurt to offended to angry to defeated.
    “I’ve seen it before. I’ve felt it before. And I can’t walk away from it, Robby. I can’t walk away from you. Please don’t ask me to.”

    or

    Jack devised a plan to prevent Robby from leaving -- blowing up the motorcycle was his first choice, having a heart-to-heart was his second.

    Summary

    "If you really want to know, the hot new thing is an app called findr. It's for bougie professionals who like to pretend they're elevated while slobbering all over each other, so entirely your speed."

    At that, Robby lost his war with self-control and did flip her off.

    Ellis actually laughed. "The vision," she repeated, dark eyes dancing. "findr," she said again, like he might have forgotten. "Go fuck away the raincloud, Robby. For everybody's sake, but mostly mine," she drawled as she sauntered away.

    Summary

    Robby hasn’t felt so obvious and awkward since he sprang up five inches freshman year of high school. Here he stands in the middle of the doorway, bearing several tell-tales of a life upside down. He’s wide awake at 2 AM. He’s scruffy headed, and stuck wearing sweat pants a size too big for the weight he’s lost in recovery. Just the weight of his phone in his pocket would be enough to drag them down over his bruised and battered hip bones if he didn’t knot them up mercilessly. Robby stinks of Wet Ones and rinse-free shampoo. And to top it all off, he’s become completely, heart wringingly, affectionately incontinent.

    Summary

    Robby really hadn't meant for any of this to happen.

    There was a bassline throbbing distant in the house, the buzz of a party on the floor below, and yet the room they were in was dark, quiet, private. The only light was the dim glow of a lava lamp on the dresser directly in front of where Robby was sitting, the purple wax erupting into oozing globs every time he glanced at it, and it illuminated two things: one, a giant tapestry of The White Album hung behind the dresser; two, the bobbing head of the man between Robby's legs.

    Or, grad student Michael Robinavitch's already stressful life is made more stressful by the appearance of undergrad Jack Abbot in his life.
