Summary
He blinked, like surfacing too fast from deep water.
For a second, nothing made sense—the angle of his arm, the way his hand was still curled around the scalpel, the faint metallic smell in the air. Then his eyes focused, and the jagged wound across his forearm came into sharp relief.
Frank stared at it, his expression flattening as the dissociation peeled back. The cut was deeper than usual. “Damn it,” he muttered under his breath, pressing gauze against his forearm. The fabric soaked through faster than he liked. That was… not ideal.
Frank Langdon, now divorced and crashing at Jack Abbot's apartment, has turned to self harm in order to cope. When he cuts too deep, Abbot and Robby find out about his new problem against his will.

Summary
Robby shuffles closer until their knees touch, and places a gentle hand on Frank’s thigh. Frank opens his mouth to speak but is almost immediately cut off. “I know you’re probably overthinking this, so just let me talk for a bit first, okay?” Robby rumbled.
"I want to apologise first," Robby said, his thumb tracing slow circles on Frank's thigh through the thin fabric of his sweatpants. "When you went into rehab six months ago, I told myself I'd visit. I packed a bag twice. Drove halfway there once. And then I turned around."
Frank's brow furrowed. "You what?"
Or: The morning after Robby and Abbot discover Frank's self harm addiction.
