    Summary

    The thing is that he likes Matt a lot, which is fine. It is. It’s good, probably. That’s what people say, right? That love, as a general concept, is a good thing. Not that he loves Matt yet, but... It’s that ‘yet’ that’s getting to him. He feels like he’s falling headfirst into something he’s entirely unequipped for, something that’s doomed to explode and take the both of them out when it goes. He knows Matt much better now than he did Saturday morning, will know him a little better by the time he leaves, better still the next time, and the next, but he still can’t shake the feeling like something’s missing, or like he wants too much even though he doesn’t really know what it is that he wants. It’s the dreams. They’re fucking him up.

     
    Jay is a wedding singer and Matt is the strange wedding guest haunting his dreams.

    Summary

    The whiteboard is the catalyst, but it really isn’t. It tips over a series of dominoes that lead to Jay’s bedroom, get under his feet, and walk him out the door. But, in the morning after, when the whiteboard has that big, capital D ‘Don’t’ on it, and Matt won’t be honest about having written it, despite it clearly being his handwriting, the whiteboard isn’t the catalyst, because Matt gets up on the couch and erases it, and it’s almost like it wasn’t there to begin with.

    A retro/prospective on Jay McCarrol's fame.

    Summary

    Kirara looks down at Hakari’s hands: wide and calloused, nails filed down to the quick. Hakari is neat like that—you wouldn’t think it from looking at him, but he cares about his appearance. Kirara does too, but in—well, in a different sort of way.
    -
    Kirara and Hakari as second years.
