💞 Books or Blowjobs

A 1986 canon divergent fix-it.
Sometimes it's worth the pain
by @timothydavidlaughlin | mauralabingi [NR, 1K]
Hawk wakes up in the morning in Tim's arms.
💞 Here We Are In Heaven
by @bluebellsinburbank | ConsumingLove (Bluebellstar) [G, 1K]
Though it happened hours before, Hawk could see it so clearly now. That green space, lined in flowers. Marcus's proud smile. Jackson's hand, so steady as it placed that simple band of silver in Hawk's palm. And Tim.
A snippet of Hawk and Tim's reception.
💞 On a sunny day in San Francisco
by @timothydavidlaughlin | mauralabingi [T, 1K]
Tim and Hawk take a walk together.
💞 🪴His great consuming lovage*🪴
by @carnivalrow | nightfall_in_winter [T, 2K]
Tim's potted plant has a story to tell...
💞 To Wrap Your Love Around Me
by @beyondxmeasure | Cyantific [T, 5K]
Waking up in Tim’s apartment, Hawk discovers Skippy's old robe, the same one from
ago, and the memories all come flooding back.
Tim doesn’t have much time left. Will Hawk be brave enough to stay?
💞 Tonight, It's Very Clear
by @bluebellsinburbank | ConsumingLove (Bluebellstar) [NR, 1K]
This isn't the plan. Marcus should just be asking for Hawk's badge. Frankie and Jerome should be waiting by the back entrance. Tim has it all in his mind - this last perfect moment with Hawk. It had been agreed, his farewell to the man he loves. He has to say goodbye, to ask Hawk to let him go.
Or, Tim plans on letting Hawk go. Hawk plans on something completely different.
💞 Two Old Men at Grubstake on Pine
by @vespersong | vespersong [T, 3K]
Hannah's story of the two old men at Grubstake Diner, in 1980s San Francisco.
💞 Time passes by in the most cruelest of fashions
by @fuddlewuddle | Fuddlewuddle [M, 2K]
Hawk and Tim talk in his little apartment in 1980s America.
Conversations between them have never been easy.
💞 You might not wear blue often, but it's still your color
by @timothydavidlaughlin mauralabingi [G, 2K]
Hawk is struggling. Then he gets a package in the mail.
💞 Don't leave it to the last dance
by @fuddlewuddle | Fuddlewuddle [M, 2K]
Tim is in hospital. Hawk brings him his mail.
One letter is not like the others.
💞 Lazy Morning
by @bluebellsinburbank | ConsumingLove (Bluebellstar) [M, 785]
Hawk and Tim share a morning together in bed.
💞 On the Street Where You Live 💠
by imstillinhellbtw [NR, 17K]
Hawk has one week to make up for 30 years lost.
Or, the last 7 days he ever spent with the love of his life.
💞 Of Snuggles and Waffles
by @bluebellsinburbank | ConsumingLove (Bluebellstar) [G, 2K]
It's a beautiful Saturday morning and Tim should be sleeping in. Unfortunately, Hawk has other plans.
💞 Stars fading but I linger on, dear
by @cinnamoncountess | CinnamonCountess []E, 5K
Tulips, roses, lavenders, daisies and orchids —
Tim closes his eyes for fleeting seconds as he passes the bayside and takes in the wide-ranging scent wafting over from the flower sales on each side of the road, drawing into his nostrils where it mixes with the salty sea odor from afar. It is that day of the year again that always squeezes on his heart like a fallen wall of bricks, burying him underneath.
💞 With all due respect, fuck congestion
by @timothydavidlaughlin | mauralabingi [T, 2K]
Tim and Hawk are going through their closet to find some clothes to donate, but Tim isn't feeling great.
💞 Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps It’s Real 💠
by drabbleswabbles [NR, 35K]
And then it happened. The metallic screech of the gate, the shuffle of men stepping out beyond the prison walls. And suddenly there he was. His hair was shorter than he’d ever seen it. And his glasses were different. But it was him. Their eyes met. Tim stared at him in wide-eyed shock before recognition melted his features into a confused outrage.
Basically, a fix-it in which Hawk finds himself back in the early 70s.
💞 The one I've left behind
by @carnivalrow | nightfall_in_winter [T, 884]
Hawk's belated confessions in the 80s.
💞 I have loved you my whole life
by @carnivalrow | nightfall_in_winter [M, 1K]
80s Tim wanted Hawk to take him back to the top of the tower, where they parted in 1954.
💞 if i have to switch the lights off, i wanna switch them off with you
by @startagainbuttercup | startagainbuttercup [T, 661]
"I don't remember our last kiss," Hawk blurted.
Tim's face instantly changed as he parted his lips in surprise.
"The whole time you were there, with the doctors, I thought you were dying, and I couldn't remember when was the last time we kissed." Hawk's voice trembled a little. He looked at his lap. "There were so many, but I just couldn't remember the last one."
Or, a little scene after, "did you forget that I'm a convicted felon?"
💞 I'll have a Blue Christmas without You.
by @in-our-special-place | Cupping_Cakes [M, 1K]
He could almost feel his touch and hear his voice, and for a brief moment, the pain would ease. But then, reality would hit again, and Hawk would be consumed by the emptiness.
💞 Couldn't say it to your face 💠
by nataliaa [G, 1K]
“I’m going to DC,” Marcus says, “next week. He’s fine,” he adds quickly. “As far as I know, anyway. But I just thought—”
It’s the most that Marcus has said about Hawk in years, and Tim instantly realizes that he hasn’t been fooling anyone, except maybe himself. Marcus knows that Tim has never stopped thinking about Hawk. Marcus has always known.

They are really trying to kill me now, but I'm not complaining!
Favourite moments from this panel:
Wordless communication between Matt and Jonny throughout the panel
Matt & Jonny looking meaningfully at each other after the talk about the zoom chemistry read, and Matt reaching out to stroke Jonny's back
Jonny making Matt cry with laughter at his "speaking with your mouth full" joke
Jelani saying it's hard to go on dates now because nobody has eyes like Matt Bomer
Matt saying he has the cufflinks Hawk gives to Skippy, and then turning to Jonny and saying in a deeper voice: "And you gave me another pair of cufflinks"
