Summary
After almost 6 years in prison during which he was simultaneously built up and torn down, Mickey is free and embarking on a brand new life in New York City. Everything is different and yet some things never change - even if he wishes they would. Coming to terms with a new life while contending with the old is harder than anything he could have imagined.
Slow burn. Canon divergent after ep 6.1. Tags will update as we get into the shit storm that has been Mickey’s life. It gets very dark in places, but is ultimately about hope and overcoming past horrors. There will be a happy ending - eventually.
I’m just trying to work through their issues and bring it to a happy end because I think Mickey and Ian deserve that.

Summary
“Uh, who the fuck are you?” Trevor stood from the stool, taking a step toward them and not taking his gaze off of Mickey’s arm so comfortably draped over Ian. Ian still hadn’t opened his eyes, silently willing the earth to swallow him whole, but he could hear the bitchy inflection in Trevor’s voice and knew this would not end well for anyone standing in the kitchen.
Ian finally forced himself to open his eyes. Trevor was apparently going through a repeated series of emotions, going from anger, to shock, to hurt, back around to anger. “Who. The fuck. Is this?”
"That's Mickey," Debbie finally supplied helpfully.
Frank Gallagher has, to the joy of many in Canaryville, finally shed the mortal coil, so naturally Ian leaves his boyfriend in Milwaukee for a few weeks to help Lip get his shit together in the aftermath. What could go wrong?

Summary
Ian Gallagher was living the dream—two beautiful daughters, a husband who adored him, and a successful career. Until tragedy struck… and his world turned upside down.
Having spent more than a third of his life behind bars, Mickey Milkovich is struggling to figure out how to move forward—trapped by his history, scared to dream of a better tomorrow.
When their worlds suddenly collide, after years apart, can their shattered hearts build something solid together?
This is a canon divergent story, that will feel like an AU, right up until it doesn’t.
