Summary
The kiss is scorching hot, unlike the cold October night. Alex’s hand cups his neck, the pressure firm, and their tongues brush slowly against each other as time becomes an abstract concept.
Alex pulls away and Henry jolts back into his surroundings, head swimming. Space grows between them and Henry stands rooted to the pavement as cars whizz past, eyes glued to Alex’s face.
A small, private smile steals across it. “Goodbye, Henry Fox.”
Henry meets Alex at his own goodbye party.

Summary
Ellen walks around the desk to stand directly in front of him. “You’re not a carpenter, Fox. You’re a ranger. If we’re all going down anyway, wouldn’t you rather go down fighting? Not cowering behind a wall?”
Henry bristles, the words striking a nerve. “I gave you my answer,” he says, jutting his chin out defensively. “I’m sorry you wasted your trip here.”
He’s about halfway to the door by the time she speaks again.
“He needs you, Henry.”
Henry freezes.
“What are you talking about?” he says, slowly turning around to face her. There’s no question of who she is referring to — but that person made it clear long ago that he doesn’t need anything from Henry.
******
Henry and Alex were best friends in the jaeger pilot training program, until misunderstandings and miscommunications drove them apart. In the final days of the war against the kaiju, can they put their differences aside and find a way to work together again to save the world?

home was a dream ('til you came along) by paintingadream

Summary
Divorce lawyer Alex went to his sister’s wedding to drink, snark, and quietly confirm that marriage is a huge scam. Then he meets Henry Fox: the dreamy, sincere venue owner who cracks his cynical shell.
Between stolen moments and rejections, running scared and dragging each other back, Alex has to face the terrifying truth; he might have been wrong about love all along.
“If he’d let his fears win, Alex would have missed this. This man. This soft, sunlit version of himself. He would have missed every bloom.”
Or; the one where a divorce lawyer and a wedding venue owner fight it, fear it, and fall in love anyway.

Summary
No matter the timeline, no matter the world—he's Henry, he's Alex, and they always find each other. Sometimes it's messy. Sometimes it's slow. Sometimes it burns too fast, or aches too sweet. But it's always them.
