    Summary

    A late-night phone conversation. An eavesdropping father.

    “OK, yeah. It’s late. I can pick you up on the way to school tomorrow if you want? Yeah, OK…Love you too, Ev.”

    Larry heads to bed, mentally churning through every “Ev” name he knows – Evelyn? Eva? Evangeline?

    Cynthia rolls over as he climbs into bed, and slurs out a sleepy “It’s late.”

    “Ev,” says Larry. “Ev, who’s Ev?”

    (Or: Connor's in love. Larry's clueless. But trying.)

    Summary

    The implications were just too dire.

    "So, you were drunk, she was drunk, you both were morons?" House stalked carefully to the couch, gripping the armrest for support as he sat at the opposite end— Wilson's eyes looked even more haunted from this angle.

    "No... I– acted irresponsibly."
    House's heart dipped to his stomach. What kind of response was that?

    Wilson, don't be a rapist, pretty please. House would've prayed to God, if he didn't feel such an overwhelming urge to spit in his mouth and call him a bastard to his face.

    "She was drunk?" House's voice had lowered, face gone solemn, his words carefully treaded.

    "I was."

    What.

    "And she wasn't?"

    "No, she wasn't."

    Summary

    Loki thought that when he confessed, Anthony would feel the same way as him. But when Anthony brushes him off, he's left with a wave of regret.

    Only, when JARVIS points out something odd about Anthony's behaviour, he has to wonder if there is another reason the mortal has acted the way he has?

    Summary

    "I- I would like more.”

    Tony took a breath. “More?”

    “More than friendship,” Loki clarified, meeting his eyes and smiling slightly. “I have seen the way you look at me. Surely I am not the only one who desires even more than what we have now.”

    Tony looked at him, at his trembling hands, the nervous upturn of his lips.

    He waited for warmth to blossom in his chest. One second, two, three.

    It didn’t.

    Well, that solved that.

    “Sorry, Lokes,” he said, turning back to his work. “It’s not the same for me.”
