Summary
"Jimmy grins and makes room on half of the stool for Lister to join him. It’s tiny, so they’d never be able to sit like this for more than a couple of minutes. They really can’t avoid the way their thighs are pressed together, and, yeah, that’s totally normal. That’s fine. Jimmy is very warm. Lister’s heart pounds steadily in his chest.
Casual as anything, willing his hands not to shake, Lister wraps his fingers gently over Jimmy’s knuckles. His hands are so warm. Lister’s hands are bigger than Jimmy’s, longer and skinnier.
They fit nicely together, he thinks."

It's Year 10. Jimmy is god-fucking-awful at the drums. Lister has recently developed a god-fucking-awful crush on Jimmy. Whatever will they do!

Summary
If you asked Jimmy what he was thinking in the moment, he’d say that the heat got to him.
He is a professional. He has undergone extensive media training since childhood. He does not make impulse-driven, risky decisions- well, not publicly, at least. He does not kiss Lister Bird onstage in front of thousands (actually millions, counting live streamers) of people.
...But listen.

Summary
"My sister is annoying the shit out of me," Jimmy whispered. Lister felt a spark of anger shoot through him. "Come keep me sane?"
or,
Lister decides he doesn’t want to spend the holidays alone, so he goes to stay with Jimmy’s family.

Summary
Lister leaned back against the door, cool against his feverishly hot skin, and closed his eyes. “I don't know,” he groaned. “I don't know what this is, I don't know what we're doing, I just know that I love you like I’ve always loved you, but now there’s–this.” He gestured vaguely. Jimmy tried to smile at him, but it didn’t reach his eyes. “And also, you're hot.”
(Basically, my take on early stages Bicci. Loosely inspired by Charli xcx’s Talk talk and a few of Alice Oseman’s Tumblr posts where they mentioned that Bicci’s relationship would probably be very messy at the start (and potentially would continue to be messy until the end). They really, genuinely love each other, guys! They're just also a mess.)

Summary
Basrar swirls his hands in front of him, and with a burst of magic an ice cream sundae appears on the table.
“Fantastic,” Ayda says. “The creation of something from nothing. A truly splendid use of conjuration. I would deeply enjoy discussing the differences between the conjuration magic of djinn and the conjuration magic of wizards, but I won’t have this conversation now, because it wouldn't be as enjoyable as eating ice cream with Fig. On this date. We’re on a date. It's our first date, I’m very excited about it.”
“She’s my succubus,” Fig says. “Can we get spoons?”
