The Only Time I Miss You Is Every Single Day by Zee

Summary
It wasn’t possible, but there he was, Ronan Lynch on his doorstep, a fine dusting of snow on his close-shaven head and a duffel bag in his hand. He shouldered his way past Adam, who was holding the door open and staring dumbly, and said, “It’s fucking freezing out, move your ass.”
-
After Adam and Ronan have gotten together and then broken up, Ronan visits Adam at college.

Summary
He bit the bullet. “I guess it’s… Ronan.”
Blue said, “What’d he do now?”
Adam laughed for real this time. “Nothing. I mean. Not yet.”
Blue followed the movement of his hand and cocked her head, trying to read the spread of cards upside down. She spent a moment studying them. He held his breath, knowing what she would see there. Blue might not be psychic, but she’d grown up with this stuff—she probably knew the theory behind it better than he did. He felt strangely flayed open, knowing what she was looking at. He almost wished he’d picked them up before she could see, but it wouldn’t matter once he told her, anyway.
Blue said, “You two have been spending an awful lot of time together.”

The hang of being alive again by Goshen (applecrumbledore)

Summary
Falling for Ronan had felt like going to speak at the same time as someone else after a long silence, two people bumbling over their words to say, no, sorry, go ahead before one of them says what they were going to say.

Summary
It's kind of about fake dating and it's kind of about friendship and it's mostly about casual revelations that I spent time in Los Angeles, because that's my wheelhouse. Some day there will be a Sarchengsey installment, probably.

Summary
Just for the record, Adam didn’t want to be there in the first place. He was already half deaf, and the last thing he needed was to lose the other half in the mosh pit of a rock concert. He didn’t even like rock concerts.
Unfortunately for him, he did like Blue.
Ronan is a Grammy award-winning rock star with a shady reputation, Adam is a mechanic with a maybe-girlfriend. When Blue drags him to the Second Sleeper concert, he gets wrapped up in a scandal with himself and Ronan at the center.- Language:

"If I had to have magic ritual sex with someone," Blue said thoughtfully, "Ronan would be near the top of the list."
"That is less helpful than you seem to think it is," said Adam.

Summary
Sex didn’t mean anything to Laurent. He liked it cheap and easy and often. No strings and no repeats. Except then there was Damen. Damen, who had a perfect boyfriend and a perfect life and would hate him if he knew what Laurent really was.
When things start to spiral and old habits start haunting him Laurent realises his comfortable apathy may not be enough anymore, but confronting reality and facing his demons just might shatter him completely. And he’s never been much good at putting himself back together.

Summary
A guy like Damen would never match with a guy like him. Laurent knew his type. He was looking for someone sporty, easy, and preferably dumb. Someone to laugh at his jokes and fawn over him as he ran on a field chasing a stupid ball or lifted weights. Laurent did not think on how it would feel to be lifted in those arms instead, or how hard they would crush him as they threw him on the bed, bending him into position as easy as clay.
No man is good enough for 21-year-old Laurent DeVere. That is until he matches with Damianos on the dating app Flare. There's only one problem - Damen is sporty, social and loved by everyone - everything that Laurent is not. The worst of all: he's Akielon.
But there's nothing a few drunk texts and manhandling can't fix.

Summary
The next vocalisation which makes it down the phone line is a long, guttural, lengthened groan that ends in an unambiguously-sighed “Fuck.” Then, once again, much more audibly startled: “Fuck.”
“Did you just ejaculate?” The annoyance rises easily. “You came, Damianos? Already?”
“Shit, Laurent—”
“Perfect. Just perfect.” The words come out like knives, and Laurent hears Damen sigh with low sympathy. He pushes away from his desk with his feet, and makes to lower them to the ground; the toy shifts almost sharply inside him. The harsh, involuntary noise that he makes will at least sound to Damen like more annoyance. Feet on his chair, knees now tucked to his chest, Laurent bites out, “I always knew it had to be hubris and mythologising. Seven hours, my ass.”
--
When tasked with writing an advertorial for a pair of sex toys for couples, Laurent—ever-single, with good reason—enlists the help of one of the only men he wholly trusts: his best friend, Damen. But when their attempt to use the toys goes unexpectedly well, they find themselves falling into a mutually-beneficial pattern. Sex between friends can be nice, if everyone is on the same page. The only question is, which page is it?

Summary
"Can't a man ask his best friend about these things?" I replied, trying to smile winningly. The arrow wound in my back chose that moment to spasm with pain, and instead, I ended up grimacing at him weakly.
"Is that what we are?" the Fool mused with a hum, one of his hands migrating beneath my shirt from its place on my belly backward towards the source of my pain. "Best friends?" "I like to think so," I told him tightly as he searched out my injury by touch alone. "Yes," he agreed under his breath. "Yes, I like to think that, too."
A drunken night in the Fool's hut in Jhaampe leads to secrets shared and even more made.

Summary
From Chapter 7:
Damen’s breaths were hot against his skin, shaky with desire. Laurent hummed, tilting his head back. He let out a sigh as those lips found the crook of his neck, first nibbling, then sucking gently. Damen’s hands were on the table behind Laurent, caging him in.
“Hm,” Laurent said, barely a breath. “If I knew a little eyeliner would turn you on this much, I’d have done it months ago.”
(Damen gets a surprise, and surprises Laurent in return.)

Summary
“I’m bisexual,” Damen says, because he can feel the conversation slipping away from him without the additional context.
“You,” says Laurent, “are.”
“Yes.”
“Okay.” Laurent nods, his expression careful and held. “Great. Happy for you.”

damen is fresh out of a seven-year relationship and looking for something casual, so naturally he ends up falling for his boss' brother

Summary
"Young men are so confident that there will always be more time, later... Old men know better. We remember all the times when we thought there would be more time, and there wasn’t. All the things I thought I would say to your father, someday, remain in my heart, unsaid."
Three generations of Farseers. Three friendships that defy expectation and understanding. Three men, both young and old, with so much left to say.
