Summary
Tim moves in with Marcus and Frankie after a 7 year long relationship ends. Their neighborhood is wealthy and idyllic, somewhere that Tim doesn't completely fit in. He expects a few months of working towards finding his own place, all while settling into his newly single life. What he doesn't expect is to be drawn, almost helplessly, to Marcus and Frankie's next door neighbor, Hawkins Fuller. Handsome, commanding, older, and married; he's everything Tim's NOT looking for, completely irresistable and completely off-limits. Until he isn't. They exchange heated glances, secret touches, harmless flirtation. And when the tension finally snaps, it's supposed to be a one time mistake...except they don't want to stop. They're in too deep, and Tim is stuck battling with his own morality while falling in love with a man he's sure will never leave his wife.

Summary
Hawk’s life is in ruins. At 54, his wife Lucy has just discovered that he cheated on her with other men. Now, in the middle of a divorce, fired from the law firm still somehow run by his 85-year-old bigoted father, and effectively exiled from the life he built, he is forced to start over. When his best friend Marcus invites him to San Francisco to join his husband’s LGBTQIA+ nonprofit as a legal advisor, Hawk reluctantly says yes.
Tim has spent his entire adult life working as a social worker alongside his best friend Frankie. He has been with his boyfriend Arthur for 14 years, and everything in his world feels... settled. Predictable. Until Hawkins Fuller walks into it.
Or: The modern setting AU as a quiet nod to the 70s episode.
