    Summary

    Dan keeps making a fool of himself in interviews, to the point where it's basically a meme. Now he's got to sit down for the better part of an hour and sell his show to the YouTuber he'd had a massive crush on when he was a teenager.

    Summary

    “Oh, we’re on this again, are we? In the middle of my plight?”

    “Just telling the truth,” Phil shrugged. “I can hear you stressing in your mind, you know?”

    Dan shook his head, his eyes gleaming.

    “Right,” he said. “Except our fucking neighbours can probably hear it too, with how loud I’m projecting my misery.”

    Phil can read thoughts. Dan doesn't believe him.

    Summary

    “Just… be happy, okay?”

    That’s the last thing Dan says before he gently lets the door fall into its lock behind him, the soft clicking more resounding, more final than any slam could’ve been.

    Phil can handle a loud fight – Dan always comes back after those.

    He’s not sure how to handle this soft goodbye into the night.

    Dan leaves.

    Phil doesn't know how to bring him back home - he just knows he has to.

    Summary

    When you watch a man shave his face in the morning, mutter to himself while he looks for his shoes, bang his shin into the coffee table for the second time in a week and cry out in irritation—how can you help but love him?

    [...]

    In a sense, Dan has known Phil all his life. Others have known him longer, known him since he took his first breath in front of a live television audience, but it seems to Dan that no one has known him better.

    or: phil’s life is a tv show, and he’s the only one who doesn’t know. dan—actor, fan, hot for a badly dressed bottle blond—auditions for a leading role. this goes about as well as dan howell + reality tv stardom could possibly go.

    "You'll never guess who just signed up to perform," Dan blurts excitedly.

    "Phil Lester," Samira supplies, like it's the most obvious option. "Or, I'm sorry. Philip. You had the biggest crush on him."

     
    Dan and Phil acted together in one school production, where Dan developed a one-sided crush. Years later, they come back together to plan a farewell concert for their mentor as she retires.

    (Dan is 24, has a reputation for sleeping around and is miserable in life. Phil is demisexual and a sweetheart. They meet one night at a club and spend the rest of it together, but not like that.)

    Summary

    All his life, Dan has wanted to have the chance to be a parent someday. He would be the best parent that ever existed, he was sure of it. Fostering might not be the most traditional way on the road to parenting, but Dan's dead set on doing it anyway. But, well, it would be easier with a co-parent, right?

    If Phil could take a picture right now to keep forever, he would: Dan, hair gone curly from the humidity, a smile that reaches his eyes, marker on his face and campy gold jacket and all.

    Summary

    Three days ago he’d left. And he still hadn’t come back. Did that make it officially the worst they’d ever been? [...] Was it Phil’s fault for still being on a beach miles and miles away from home after three whole days of misery, or was it Dan’s for still being quiet the way he’d never, ever been, in any of their previous fights?
    Come back, Phil wanted to text, nonsensically. I can’t think when you’re away, just come back already.
    But that wasn’t what the person who left could say.

    (For the first time in their relationship, it's Phil who walks away after an argument. He doesn't cope very well.)

    Shane lifts one eyelid again to look at Rozanov. His eyes are red-rimmed. Like he’s been crying. “Why…why aren’t you in Boston?”

    Rozanov’s brow furrows. “Why would I be in Boston?”

    “You, you’re captain. Raiders. Boston.”

    The room is silent except for the beeping of monitors.

    In 2023, Shane takes a bad hit on the ice. When he wakes up, the last thing he remembers is a tuna melt.

    There’s a lot to get used to.

    Summary

    Phil, 28, video editor.
    Phil doesn't believe in love at first sight, and that is not about to change anytime soon. But what about lust? Just two short weeks ago, he'd say no, definitely not.

    Not anymore. Not since he first locked eyes with Dan, the new intern at the company he works for. Not since he first thought, "I want him".

    Phil's wish does come true, but there's a catch.
    It doesn't mean anything.

    AmazingPhil had been complaining about his downstairs neighbour a lot lately.

    It was just one more thing Dan could relate to.

    “Honestly, I don’t know what’s wrong with the guy,” Phil told the camera in his newest video. “There’s so much screaming coming from his apartment in the afternoons, I don’t even really try to film during day time anymore."

    Dan is a gaming YouTuber who studies law. Lately, he doesn't sleep very well because of his very loud upstairs neighbour.
    Whoever that might be.

    No one but his favorite YouTuber seems to understand.

    Phil needs a boyfriend for a family gathering.
    Not a real one. Just someone to stop the questions, silence the hopeful glances and prove, once and for all, that he’s doing just fine.

    Dan agrees. Far too easily.

    Or: What’s supposed to be a simple weekend of pretending quickly turns into shared beds, knowing looks, and the uncomfortable realization that playing a role feels a little too natural.

    Or: Phil asks the hot paramedic he met after a very unfortunate glue-eating incident to be his fake boyfriend.
