Summary
It's simple - when Shiv doesn't wear her wedding ring, neither does Tom. Of course this isn't reflective of the state of their marriage - right?
Greg notices, and in typical Greg fashion, doesn't really keep his mouth shut about it.

Summary
"The little things? The little moments? They aren't little.” ― Jon Kabat-Zinn
-.-.-
A collection of stolen moments between Tom and Greg, starting in season one. A slow burn romance told through the conversations that didn't make it to the screen.
-.-.-
Ultimately canon-divergent, in mostly subtle ways.

Summary
So the Tom thing doesn’t make him feel guilty or anxious in the ways that it probably should. But sometimes he thinks about what would happen if he told his mom, and that’s the stuff that really freaks him out. Because he knows what she would say, and it would hurt worse than anything else.
"Just like your father," she'd say, and she'd be right.

Summary
“Greg, you’re being too fucking polite for your own good,” Tom says, throwing back the last of his wine. “Say something mean right now.”
“Like what?”
“Don’t get distracted, finish your thought. Try saying what you’re really thinking.”
“I don’t—“
“Fine, I’ll do it for you. ‘Oh, I’m Greg, uh, I hate capitalism but actively participate in it, oh, God, Logan Roy is my real dad. Oh, God. Kiss me, Tom.’”
“Okay—“
“‘Oh God, Tom, take me home.’ Okay, seriously, I’m getting the bill.”

Summary
Sherlock watched John's mouth as that smile slid away too quickly. There had been something there, something he'd not had time to analyze. He was left with the unsettling impression of having witnessed an expression that didn't belong on John Watson's face at all. In its wake it left the equally unsettling thought that perhaps he didn't know John as entirely as he thought he did.
