    Summary

    The third time The Thought crosses Roy’s mind, it doesn’t come as a sudden realisation like it had both times before. He doesn’t just happen to blink or some shit and get struck with the fucking epiphany that Jamie Tartt clearly, desperately needs a hug. It’s not a jolt to his system, not a surprise, not this huge blindsiding Thing that appears out of nowhere.

    No, this iteration of The Thought creeps up like a bad cold: slowly, lazily to start, so that it doesn’t seem like such a big deal at first, but that’s how it fucking gets you, innit, because soon enough you’re knocked clear on your arse with the force of it.

    And it’s fucking terrifying.

    ---------

    in which the touchstarved gays are no longer touchstarved but are still gay, Jamie's in his Mom City depression era, and Roy Kent is Trying His Best. Once again living vicariously through fictional sportsball men <3

    (can be read as a standalone, but the first fic provides some context!)

    Summary

    If Jamie could spend the rest of his life held in someone’s arms, he would in a heartbeat. Well, he’d need to be let go to play football, he supposes, but the rest of the time would be good enough.

    For Roy, touch is just another way to show he cares. He’s fucking shit at words, but he makes up for it in physical contact when he wants to.

    And for both of them, touch is something rare and precious. An indulgence. A want. A need. And its absence causes an ache that neither will ever confront.

    It'd be a real shame if they just happened to have to.

    ---------

    aka a fic where both Roy and Jamie are touchstarved and oops they're also gay and in love eventually because I am gay and also touchstarved and living vicariously through fictional sportsball men <3

    Summary

    When you’re going up in flames, sometimes other people can smell the smoke. On the flip side, at least: when you’re on fire, sometimes other people can feel the warmth.

    Or, scenes from Home Economics, told from the perspective of everyone else.
