    Summary

    Colt threw his hands up in surrender, backing away from his biohazard of a brother. “Hey man, it’s not my fault you have the flu.”

    “I dont-“ Ryland sneezed explosively, shoving his face into the crook of his arm.  “Ugh, I don’t have the flu.”

    Colt raised an eyebrow. “Bullshit.”

    “It’s usually pronounced “bless you”,” Ryland rolled his eyes and blew his nose. “And I really don’t.“

    ------

    Anyone who knows a teacher knows that when they get sick, they get crazy sick. Anyone who has siblings knows that you share germs like you share a phone charger. This rings true for Colt and Ryland too.

    Summary

    He sometimes wishes they were in a car, watching the rolling hills of Earth go by. Like when he and his mom drove across California to see some distant relative, Grace spent the whole time staring out the window, imagining a smaller version of himself running alongside the car jumping over every obstacle that sat on the side of the road.

    Man, what he would do to have that again – wait.

    An idea jumps to his mind. It swims to the forefront of his brain like a worm, suddenly taking every thought in his head until it’s all he can think about.

    “Hey, Rocky?”

    “Yes, Grace?”

    “Do you want to go on a road trip?”

    Summary

    When had they stopped being so close? College, when Ryland retreated to the east coast and Colt hitch hiked to Hollywood? High school, when Colt made friends outside of Ryland for the first time? When had they grown so far apart that Ryland couldn’t help Colt heal?

    “I just,” he sniffed, “Did I do something wrong? I’m sorry if I did. I know we aren’t as close, but I don’t understand why you’re pushing me away.” the tears were falling faster, he couldn’t stop the words, they had built up for too long at this point.

    “Ryland. It wasn’t just you I was pushing out. I didn’t want anyone to see me like that.” The light turns green and Colt starts moving again. “I-” Colt groans. “I’ve thought so many times about what I could say to you, to apologize. But, nothing ever seems like enough, y’know? And then it just seems easier to not, y’know, say anything.”

    Ryland knows Colt well enough to know that’s the best apology he’s going to get. He swallows down his own anger, even if he wants to shout ‘can’t you try?’. He clenches his jaw, turning to look out the window.

    OR

    Ryland is present for the events of The Fall Guy, and it changes some things. Along the way Ryland and Colt reconnect.

    Summary

    Harry gets sick, and doesn't realize that when humans are sick, they're supposed to rest. Instead, he does his best to ignore his symptoms and power through the week, which goes well (sort of) until Thursday, when he starts getting worse. Turns out human illnesses, when left untreated, don't just magically disappear on their own. Someone really should have told him that.
