Summary
“I want this,” Jeremy says, his voice cracking as the words tumble hopelessly out. “I want to keep playing. I think I will die if I don’t. Jean, I—”
“Okay,” says Jean, thumbing under his eyes. “Then you will keep playing.”
Jeremy shakes his head. “Is it really that simple?”
“Yes,” says Jean. “It is.”
Jeremy navigates the reality of his future. He also navigates the reality of Jean.

Summary
“Have you considered the possibility that Neil has chosen you, but believes you have not chosen him?” Renee says. "Have you ever explicitly told him what you want?”
“Neil knows what I want,” Andrew snaps. This is not Andrew’s fault.
“How do you know?”
Because Neil always knows. He is as fluent in Andrew’s micro-expressions as he is in German and French. He knows which head tilts mean “go on” and which ones mean “shut up.” Without ever asking, he learned what it meant to see Andrew wearing double layers of long sleeves, or taking multiple showers in a day, and learned to hand Andrew the car keys.
That has always been the most terrifying thing about Neil — his patience to wait, watch, listen, learn. The prospect that if Neil were given enough time, there would be no part of Andrew that was just Andrew’s anymore.
“He has to know,” Andrew says.
“Does he?” Renee says. “Have you ever known Neil to assume that he is wanted?”
Five times Neil tells someone that he and Andrew aren’t dating, and one time Andrew uses his words to set the record straight.

Summary
The bed is warm, but not overly so. They sleep with the overhead fan on regardless of the season — neither of them like to wake up sweating. The whole bedroom situation is ridiculously indulgent. A white noise machine whirs softly on the nightstand. A Glade plugin fills the room with the mild scent of bamboo and waterlily. The sheets and duvet cover are butter-smooth, stretched over a memory foam mattress that cost a small fortune. There are tastefully designed blackout curtains around the windows, but they rarely actually draw them — Neil likes the way the sun slowly slips into the room each morning, and Andrew doesn’t really care either way.

Summary
“Deku,” he says slowly, carefully, so there’s no room for misinterpretation, “we’re not having sex.”
Izuku blinks. Relief floods his features, and there we go, Katsuki missed that smooth, eased little expression. “Oh,” he breathes, then his face twists up all over again — goddamnit. “Wait, like ever?”
Embarrassment swallows Katsuki’s composure whole. “We’re not having sex right now! In this very moment, we are not having sex!”
Katsuki and Izuku lose their virginities in stages.

Summary
“You wanna go again?” Alex asks, pressing the back of his head into the pillows, offering his throat more fully to Henry’s hungry mouth, and when Henry laughs and retrieves another condom and the little bottle of lube from his toiletry bag, he adds, “I had a thought, though. I thought, maybe… you could be inside me this time.”
(Movieverse; there were two condom wrappers on the floor in Paris.)
