    Summary

    “If there’s anyone who knows even remotely what I’m going through right now, by God, I think it’s you,” Henry says with a tense chuckle.

    Alex relaxes back into the seat a bit, feeling lighter than he has all night. He raises his glass and says, “To amicable divorces?”

    A genuine laugh bursts out of Henry as he lifts his glass to cheers him.

    Oh, Alex missed that laugh.

    or: after getting divorced from other people, alex and henry see each other for the first time in a decade.

    Summary

    As he sidles up to the first freezer, he once more scans the shelves, going through the ice cream and fruit and then the veggies. Just as he hits the frozen pizzas, Alex asks, “Not to be rude, but do you even know what you’re looking for?”

    He stutters, blushing. Caught. “Err, well, I mean…not exactly. But I have two degrees. Surely it can’t be that hard to locate something in a grocery store. There are only so many aisles.”

    “Right, exactly.” The maddening smirk is back. “Continue on, then.”

    “'Love, what is this?'

    Alex wipes his brow and turns around from where he’s been unpacking a box of clothes for their closet.  Henry is handling their bedside table and all the wonderful, various items that are going in there.  Alex’s eyes catch on a very familiar magazine and his breath catches quickly.

    Oh no"

    Summary

    Henry had been very pleased to discover that Alex and Nora were also a shoeless household, but he’d stared at the SHOES OFF, PANTS OPTIONAL mat at their door for longer than strictly advised because, well. Pants means something different where he’s from, all right, and Alex had been standing right there and the corresponding visual was not—well it wasn’t—Henry was not equipped to deal with it at the moment. Or ever, really, for that matter.

    .

    Or, Henry likes his routines, and his neighbor Alex likes to wreck them just the right amount.
