Summary
It landed deep in Robby's chest, a warm kind of awareness rising; this was Jack's version of care. He may not approve of the bike, but he was trying to make sure Robby was as safe as possible on it.
Jack dropped the Garmin back to the table and tapped the pocket knife. "And a Leatherman ARC. It's got like twenty tools on here. Basic stuff, but it'll help you fix some things. And before you argue, you never know what could go wrong on the road. If you're not always prepared, you're never prepared."
"Are you about to hit me with 'two is one, one is none?'" Robby asked, only slightly mocking.
Jack jutted his chin forward, stubborn. "If I thought you'd take two, I'd send two."

Summary
“Late to be heading out,” a voice says from behind him, and of course it’s Jack, hands in his pockets, sauntering over like they weren’t discussing life or death less than an hour ago.
“Yeah,” Robby says, and he can see Jack’s shoulders unclench in relief, even from here, and then he’s getting a clap on the back, and a set of keys placed in his hand.
“Alarm code’s the same,” Jack says, in lieu of I’m glad you’re not going to kill yourself tonight, and Robby nods, in lieu of Thank you for knowing me. Thank you for this.Bookmarked by WhatAreFears

Summary
"Tell me something that brings you comfort."
"Something that brings me comfort?" Robby shot back, his tone mocking the frivolity of it, because he never was one to just follow directions.
"Yes," Gene said, eternally unfazed. "It can be the smallest thing, whatever comes to mind."
What came to mind was: Pens games, the trails at Frick Park, the rare book collection in the Oliver Room at Carnegie Main, a cortado at Sage Caffe. But what he said was: "Jack."
...wait. Shit.

Summary
"You want me to go?"
That's the last thing Jack wants. "Stay, please, you know you're always welcome."
Robby relaxes, and he carries on stirring
Jack interrupts the quiet once more with the other question that's been on the tip of his tongue.
"Why haven't you left?"
Robby freezes. He doesn't turn around, doesn't look at Jack, like it's easier to be honest this way.
"Because I think if I go, I won't come back."
******
After the end of 2x15. Robby turns up at Jack's house instead of going on his sabbatical and then just....doesn't leave
