    Summary

    Remember when Hayden Pike punches Ilya after Shane said not to, right before the announcement of the Irina Foundation? Remember that that was the second time Hayden laid his hands on Ilya in the first month of knowing him?

    Or, Shane gets rightfully fed up after the first month of Hayden's behavior towards Ilya. Punching Ilya was the final straw, so he tells Hayden to pretend he never found out. It sets off a chain of events landing him, happily, in Ottawa a year earlier and with a better support system for both him and Ilya.

    Summary

    Shane knows his mother would love him if he left the Metros, but he also knows that he could never give her a reason good enough for him to do so. She'd have an excuse, have a reason, have a way to make any event be something he could handle or deal with. They could probably make him commit murder, and she'd brush it off, let alone if Shane finally got tired of the weirdly racist and definitely homophobic comments that got made daily.

    Summary

    Munson is grinning like an idiot. Big browns blinking mischievously. God, he’s about to agree to this, isn’t he?

    He rubs at his red-rimmed eyes, pats his palms at his cheeks, then groans, “Okay. Fine. Yup. ”

    The grin tugs wider at the edge of Doctor Munson’s lips, “Yeah?”

    Steve shakes his head. It’s a Hail Mary. He knows that. He’ll probably leave Dr. Munson’s care just the same as all the others, not able to think straight, brain still a pile of goo. But he’s been so tired for so long. And Munson’s so different from the rest of them. So maybe, just maybe…

    “Yeah. Sure.” He says with a wave of his hand, “Hypnotize me.”

    ---

    Steve Harrington can’t sleep. Dr. Munson might have just the thing.
