pull a little harder on the belt loops of my jeans by wafflesofdoom

Summary
Robert was bad at being queer. He knew that. As much as sex with men had been an indulgence he had been happy to give himself, Robert is also acutely aware there are certain hangups he has about having sex with another man, and he knew those hangups were probably like, internalised homophobia, or whatever.
He could read, alright - Robert did a lot of Googling one those rare nights he actually went back to Vic’s, and needed to sleep alone.

Summary
max king is getting married - and there is no way robert sugden is going to his best friend slash ex-boyfriend’s wedding stag. there’s just no way.
maybe fake-dating his little sisters best friend is a slightly demented thing to do in response to your best friend getting married, but robert’s had worse ideas.

Summary
“You’ve got to be fucking kidding me,” Mickey says, one hand over his eyes.
“Mickey, don’t you get it?” Ian says, sitting up just enough to grab his hands, and tugging him down so he’s leaning over Ian on the bed.
“What’s to get?” Mickey says. “You’re a sexy alien. Same as every other day.”

Summary
A year after Crashcon, Michael knows three things for certain.
1. He loves Alex and he probably- no, definitely always will.
2. Having Alex as his best friend makes everything in his life better.
3. Knowing, thanks to his bullshit alien biology, that Alex still fantasizes about his body regularly while dating someone else for a year, well, that is a little more difficult to navigate.It’s fine. It is all just fine.

Summary
He glared at his unadorned hands, wondering how he ended up like this, twenty-eight years old with no friends, no boyfriend, no music, and no obvious individuality.
An accident with the pods leaves Alex temporarily deaged to his 17 year old self, pre-prom, and said 17 year old is not best pleased with how his future has turned out. Heavy emphasis on Alex and Maria fixing their friendship as well as figuring out what to do about the Michael-shaped elephant in the room.

Summary
“…You want to?” he asks.
Shane blinks. “What?”
“Kiss someone.”
The question makes Shane’s brain short circuit.
Shane swallows. “I mean—yeah.”
“Then why haven’t you?”
“I don’t know.” Shane shrugs again, shoulders tight. “Timing. People. It’s just… not something I think about like that.”
That’s not entirely true.
He does think about it. Just in a different way. Abstractly. Like something other people do, but not he himself.
Ilya watches him for a long moment.
“I could show you.”

Lovin' you is a gift tonight (Lovin' you for all my life) by Bellakitse

Summary
Ten years ago when Alex leaned in for a kiss, Michael panicked and with it missed his shot. He's lived with that regret for a decade. Some things are always meant to be though and fate gives him a second chance when he runs into Alex at an airport as they wait for their delayed flight.
*
Reconnecting at the airport, feelings still strong as ever, and the shed incident (with a much better outcome), these two were always meant to be.Bookmarked by SometimesStressed

Summary
It isn’t until he realises he can’t find the keys for his fucking truck anywhere and that there’s mail on the table addressed to Mr M Evans that Noah called him ‘Evans’, too. He fumbles inside the wallet that he’d managed to locate and pulls out a New Mexico licence with his picture on it; he doesn’t have a black eye and a split lip in this one, his hair’s tamed and he doesn’t look like he’s gone three days without showering. His date of birth is stamped, clear and correct, but then where his name should read ‘Michael Guerin’, it reads “Michael Evans’ and the address registered on the license is that of Max and Isobel’s childhood home. Noah had also said ‘your mom’s’. Not ‘Mrs Evans’.
It feels like a bucket of ice water’s dumped over his head as he finally accepts that something is very, very wrong.
(aka, the fic spawned from a tumblr prompt about Michael waking up in a parallel reality.)

Summary
It didn’t hurt, the mark there. Touching it didn’t pierce through him or shock him; it just felt like something, someone, pulling at him. A constant tug, an anchor rope that led deep inside him and coiled tightly around his core. It felt like being needed and loved and trusted. It felt like Michael.

Summary
“Did he ask you if you like flowers? Or ask if you if you’re allergic to any of them? Because he should’ve asked you if you were allergic first,” Michael said. Alex scoffed and turned to look at him.
“Do you know what I’m allergic to?” Alex asked. Michael didn’t respond. “Yeah, didn’t think so."

Summary
“Alex Manes,” he says, the syllables of it dripping with so much acid it makes Alex want to change his entire name.
“Michael,” Alex says in return. He’s pretty sure this isn’t the right way to address someone who’s in his professional charge, but at the end of the day, they went to school together. He’s known Michael since they were fourteen years old.
There’s a brief look of surprise on Michael’s face at the sound of his own name, but then his expression breaks into a mirthless smirk.
“You’d think Deep Sky would do background checks on their employees, huh? A Manes man, getting all up in alien business? We all know how well that’s turned out in the last century or so.”
—
At the beginning of senior year, Michael Guerin gets captured and thrown into Caulfield. At the end of it, Jesse Manes lets his youngest son in on the family secret.
Fifteen years later, Alex Manes is working for Deep Sky when he’s assigned to protect one of its assets as he works on something with unknown consequences.
Neither of them is happy about it.
