    Summary

    “Am I a bad friend?”

    Hayden has always been the guy Shane joked with, the guy he trusted to feed him without mocking him, the guy he roomed with on the road, and Shane is the only man who has ever seen Hayden cry, and Hayden loves Shane. He fucking loves him. They are like brothers, and they have been for almost ten fucking years. He’s always been Shane’s guy, Shane’s best friend.

    Except all along, maybe that wasn’t true. Ilya Rozanov, apparently, had been the guy. Before Hayden had ever met Shane, Ilya Rozanov had been there. And Hayden had never even noticed.

    Shane is all over every inch of Hayden’s life. Hayden thought that was reciprocal.

    “You know I think about you all the time,
    And my deep misunderstanding of your life,
    And how bad it must have been for you back then,
    And how hard it was to keep it all inside.”

    Summary

    Two teenage boys find themselves ripped from a home that wants nothing to do with them and at the mercy of the mercy of The System. Thankfully, a broken man cannot stand around and watch them get chewed up and spit back out.

    (Or: the one where Connor and Nines are twins and are adopted by Hank and learn what it's like to live with someone that actually cares for them. In between all of that, Connor gets a crush on the first cute guy he sees, Nines plays emo music on the guitar, and Sumo is a very good boy.)

    Summary

    Connor needs a break from work, big time.

    The problem is that he doesn't know how to relax. A stay at a silent meditation and yoga retreat seems like the way to go... Or maybe the animal rescue, run by a very handsome, and fascinating, cowboy...

    This is a collaboration with Clopina for the Detroit Become Human Reverse Big Bang of 2024! Check out their gorgeous art that this story is inspired by!

    Summary

    Connor Stern feels like he's going nowhere.

    One night of bad luck ended him up in a situation he has no means to get out of, and now it comes down to 'do what needs to be done or suffer the consequences.'

    Markus Manfred is stuck in a rut.

    Since his father died four years ago, he feels like he's torn between two worlds, with no way to choose between the two without betraying some part of himself, past or present.

    When a chaotic Rube Goldberg of events puts them in the same place at the same time, they may just come to find that the key to finding their inner peace and inspiration rests within one another.

    Summary

    Connor didn’t unpack. He never did, not right away. The duffel sat on the bed like it always did—creased, zipped, weightless now except for the things that didn’t matter. Temporary. Like always.

    Thrown into yet another foster placement, Connor expects the same pattern as always: distance, disappointment, the inevitable move. Hank Anderson is tired, messy, and unprepared for a teenager who won’t speak unless he has to. But small habits—burnt toast, late-night documentaries, folded blankets—begin to blur the edges of what Connor thought he knew about family. When old ghosts resurface, both Hank and Connor are forced to decide what they’re really willing to fight for.
