Summary
Blackmail. Illegal porn. Undercover at a gay bar. The Nice Guys sure are at it again.
“Porn? I can throw a rock in this neighborhood and I’m gonna break the window of a porn store.”
March gestured anxiously, waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Healy paused. “Ohhhhh. The nasty stuff. Whips and handcuffs. Girls and animals.”
“Close,” March said, grimacing. He really, really didn’t want to have to explain this. “Think more like…. Disco.”
“Disco?” Healy raised an eyebrow. “What, like the queer music? You think the back room of that store is full of porn for… For disco fans.” He nodded thoughtfully a couple of times. “And you’re an expert about this?”
For a second the whole world went white around the edges and March thought he might pass out. He was too sober for this conversation. What exactly had Healy noticed that morning, how obvious exactly had his full-body reaction to Healy’s hand on his neck been? “I was a happily married man!” March said, and as soon as it came out of his mouth he knew it was wrong. Too fast, too high-pitched, too loud.
Incriminating.

Summary
The driver has a very strange relationship with pain. It’s one of the many, many pieces of himself that he knows don’t fit the way they do with other people: one of the things that makes him not much of a person at all. No. That isn’t quite right. The two are tied. The day pain stopped meaning much to Driver was the day it stopped being a person.
(He is sixteen, when he gets that car. The feeling that envelops him, that first night in his— his!— car, is both totally foreign and the softest thing the driver has ever felt. Something surges through Driver’s chest, hot and fierce and strong. The sound that bubbles out of him is somewhere between a laugh and a hiccuping sob, but Driver doesn’t care. It feels good.)
Or, Driver's turbulent relationship with being a person, featuring a different approach to the canon story.

Summary

I could find him. I should find him. Stop him somewhere quiet and say…what? Hello?
Hello. I work at Eastwood. I saw you today, talking to Ethan. I need to tell you something.
Need to tell you something.
Need you.
I need you.
Please.
…That’s it, isn’t it? Was that not clear before?
The majority of what I’m thinking, what I’m now doing, had already crystallized inside me before I even left work today. There’s no murkiness or indecision about what this is: I’m following this man. Right now I don’t know where he is, and yet I’m trying to find out where he lives and go there. I need to go to him and…stay there. That’s what I want.

(Driver nearly bleeds out fleeing Los Angeles. He does bleed out in every way but physical, lost and dead to the world until a beautiful stranger makes him feel alive again. Now he knows the meaning of life - to find the man, to meet him, to have him. To make them one.)

Summary
Ryland Grace is having A Week. First he is practically kidnapped from his place of work, sent into one of the finest labs he has ever been in, and told he is going to be first contact with an alien.
Except he's already been first contact with an alien. It's just that no one knows that.
Confused, curious, and with minimal supervision, Ryland Grace makes the breakthrough of the century. What he doesn't know is that he's about to become a part of something much bigger. In the process something he thought he lost will be found, and maybe if he can avoid making a mess of things, he will get to come home.
