Summary
The silence stretches, syrupy and slow as Lisa considers, looking uncharacteristically hesitant. “Mr. Parson, Kent, when I was reviewing the right up from the officers and paramedics who found you, there were some… inconsistencies.”
Kent doesn’t know how to answer that, fixing his gaze forward.
“Apparently in these types of accidents-” she says the word delicately “-there’s swerving, a result of the drunk driver’s confusion. Once they realize they’re off the road, there’s some sort of over correction, skid, and then the impact is made.”
Kent might not have full memories of the night, it might be a blur, but he knows what she’s getting at before she even finishes her conjecture, can still feel the cold clarity of it.

Summary
Jack put a hand on his hip and Kent shook his head. “I need you to know that I can’t do that again,” Kent said. “If we’re doing this, we’re doing this.”
“How?” Jack asked.
Kent shook his head. “We can figure that out. However - however is best for both of us. But you - I can’t have you ghost me again. I can’t-”
“No,” Jack said. “I don’t want to do that.”
Kent’s breath hitched. “Zimms,” he said, with some warning there.
“I know, Kenny,” Jack replied.

Summary
“You didn’t tell me you were at Samwell.”
Eric raised an eyebrow. “I didn’t realize you would know about Samwell,” he replied, not at all ashamed to say he was fishing for information. Because the longer the thought about it, the more he couldn’t connect the dots between Kent and Jack. How did this care-free, easy-going man Eric met in Florida know the hard-working, stoic Captain of the Samwell Men’s Hockey Team? It just seemed so unlikely that Eric couldn’t fathom where the link lied.
Epikegster happens differently after the events of Ice Cream Summers.

Summary
“You can’t get into a car like this.” Jack can still taste the lingers of Kool-Aid, ginger ale, and a gallon of cheap vodka on the very back of his throat. He coughs a little. It doesn’t change anything.
Kent gives him a blank stare. His lips still looked a little swollen. “Yeah, well, how else am I going to get back to Boston?”

Summary
Jack and Bitty have been secretly dating for a few weeks when Epikegster happens.
Kent looks at Eric again, and apparently he's done with the polite hinting.
"Could we maybe get some fuckin' privacy?" He snaps, directing it half at Eric and half at Jack.
Eric just raises an eyebrow and looks up at Jack. Jack looks back down at him.
"He's fine," Jack says to Kent. "Whatever you've got to say, you can say it in front of him."

Summary
"This guy might be someone Jack would have later – but Kent would get there first, and Jack would never have that. Jack would have to settle for Kent’s seconds the way he’d so very clearly chosen to do with everything else."
Kent never said that he made sensible decision. When he runs into Jack’s teammate on the stairs at the Hockey Frat's Epikegster, he isn’t exactly thinking of making good choices. Hooking up with the guy seems like an easy way of getting the last word with Jack - but that was without counting on Bitty himself and just how quickly Kent would forget what he set out to do.
AKA: TFW you set out for a revenge hookup, but you catch feelings instead.

Summary
Bitty just stares at the man next to him, his eyes roaming over every feature he’s had memorized for months. The small scar above his left eye, hardly visible, but Bitty knows it’s there. The fading bruise on his cheek from dropped gloves on the ice last week. The smallest of cuts on his jaw from when Bitty’s ass distracted him while shaving.
“I love you."
--
or the one in which Kent gets traded to the Falconers, Jack has reconciled his friendship with Kent, and Bitty is oblivious when it comes to Jack.
