    Summary

    Jimmy kinda had to admit: he might be in a little over his head. Just a smidgen.

    Rock dust showered down over him as another shot hit the rock he was sheltering behind, his hat keeping most of it from his eyes. He clutched his hat as he ducked forward. Raising his revolver, he shakily checked his rounds, finding three bullets still in the chambers. A hand groped around for his ammunition pouch on his belt, drawing a few rounds out and trying to load them with a shaking hand.

    He found the right poster and held it up, glancing between the sketched face beneath the ‘Wanted: Dead or Alive’ and the man in front of him.

    Yep, that was Tango Tek alright.

    Summary

    Tango is a workaholic. Jimmy is a hopeless romantic. They’re friendly enough, but not trapped-in-a-magical-Hallmark-movie-together friendly.

    Yet here they are, stuck in a picture-perfect town where every holiday cliché is shoved in their faces. Maybe the only way out is to lean into it—decorate a bit, bake some cookies, skate on some ice.

    As long as they’re not part of the clichés themselves… right?

    It’s a Hallmark movie. What could possibly go wrong? 🎄

    Summary

    There was a space for him, in the crook of Tango's arm. It was knobbly and ran warm, and Jimmy was just slightly too tall, but there was space. Hand on scarred-soft hand, Tango reeled him in, and Jimmy found himself in the comfort of Nether embers and a heartbeat the same as his.

    It beat the same as his.

    (In that moment, his breath caught, and his mouth went 'oh'.)

    (Tango was the best thing to happen to him.)

    Summary

    “Being a ghost is stupid,” Jimmy says petulantly. “You just poked straight through my chest, which I would ordinarily be upset about. But I’ve been dead for four years, so I’m not mad at you about it. I mean, I’m mad, but not at you specifically.”

    Or: Tango's ranch is haunted. It's not nearly as big of a problem as he expected it to be.
