    Summary

    J.J. drunk FaceTimes Quentin one night their first year away at college.

    It's an ungodly hour because they forget in their inebriated state that Jersey is three hours ahead of California, but Quentin answers anyways because he will alway answer the phone for his daughter, even at ass o’clock in the morning, so it doesn’t matter.

    At first he’s a bit panicked about why they’re calling in the middle of the night, let alone from a party. Then once he strings together enough of what they're trying to say through the garbled audio of the phone speaker, he just laughs.

    “How the hell did you and Pa make me if you met in college of all places? All these people are fucking imbeciles— they can’t even look each other in the eyes.”

    Summary

    Quentin, Quentin, Eliot's heart sang—as it always had, since he met the man. Only now there was a new refrain—peaches and plums, peaches and plums, I love you, I love you.

    Summary

    The thing about Quentin Coldwater was that he didn’t know how to ask for what he needed without first trying to piss someone off.

    Especially Eliot.

    Eliot had figured that out a long time ago.

    Summary

    “Damn,” Quentin says. “It’s really coming down out there.” His head was stuck nearly outside, hair tumbling over his shoulders as he leaned out the window. He pulled his head back in. “Do you think he’s okay? Should we check on him?”

    Eliot snorted. “You mean should we go out in the rain and muck and get all wet and dirty to make sure our thirteen-year-old son hasn’t drowned in a puddle? I think it’s okay, Q.”

    ***

    Quentin, Eliot, and their son on a rainy afternoon.
