Summary
Even Sam isn't dense enough to know that the way Lyle stumbles over himself, asks him for kisses with no prompting, face full of pitiful desperation, isn't normal.
It's easier to pretend it is though, with everything else happening.

I Put My Head Down But I Never Rest by supersubjuicer (auntwilmascrosswordchallenge)
Fandoms: Look Outside (Video Game)

Summary
When discussing changes to sleeping arrangements to account for Sam's growing list of roommates, the fact Hellen doesn't- and seemingly can't, sleep, sticks around in his mind, in-between focusing on the task at hand and his ever-growing list of worries. In a rare moment of solace with the only other sane adult in the group, he attempts to convince her to at least relax, she does the same because he's a hypocrite, and things go in a way different direction than either intended.
(7/15: Now with a bonus chapter of them talking about it after, or rather, not talking about it then still ending up talking about it, because I couldn't help myself.)

Dan smiled anyways. "Be honest, Sam. There's probably nothing you could show me that would be worse than anything else we've seen, right?" Sam hesitated, before nodding, and turning on the lamp.

Summary
But you still think about that kiss when you get home. After you clean up. After you sprawl out on the couch, trying to gather up the strength to retreat all the way to your bedroom. Women have never really done it for you. You don't really have the social skills to make guy friends, either. Honestly? Now that you think about it…
You're afraid to die having never been loved by anyone.

Summary
Did you know? While crocodilians have enormous bite force, the muscles used to open their jaws are much weaker. The average person could hold one's mouth shut if needed. Don't see what good that does somebody, already in the water. But I guess it's a comfort.

Summary
“Mr.Sam,” Joel asks him out of the blue during breakfast, “Why is everything you make so gross?”
Upon the abrupt insult, Sam nearly spits out the runny eggs he barely managed to put together, punching his chest as he choked on his terrible breakfast. “What?” he manages to cough out.
“Well… hhhh… It’s just my mom used to make super awesome pancakes!” Joel says with a smile… though, it’s hard to tell if it’s an actual smile or just his face. “I know we don’t have a lot of food… But these eggs taste really… hhhh… bad.”
--------
A series of events in which Sam learns to cook, and gains a family on the way. Because when you're in the midst of the apocalypse, getting your kids McDonald's isn't exactly a feasible option.

Summary
Sam gets a severe case of sexual frustration. But it’s fine, he’s fine. Not like he can get any privacy with all his new roommates and the monsters roaming the halls and other apartments. He’ll deal with it, really.
Dealing with it becomes significantly harder (pun intended) when Lyle asks for another kiss.

Summary
The ritual was flawed. Sam looked outside. The people he leaves behind struggle to adapt to a changed world.
Joel, Sophie, and their rat-sibling attempt to adjust to their new lives and to reconcile themselves with new facts of life. The passage of time promises a strain on supplies that weighs upon people never meant to look after so many others.
Sam, detached from himself, bears witness.
