Why this must be read: This short story set post S1 starts out deceptively simply, then packs a major whammy by the end. It's a Duncan POV story--and there aren't a huge number of these in this young fandom--and it's a bloody brilliant one that cannily uses what we know of the character to lead us to somewhere unexpected.
He took off during one of Aaron’s teary riffs when Aaron got to the part about how he had only concealed his affair with Lilly to protect his son.
Logan was leaning against the water cooler when he got outside. "What an act, right?"
Duncan evaluated the cooler’s stash of cups. "Yeah." Water in a waxed paper cone always tasted like - - waxed paper. He thought he might hunt down a coffee pot just to get his hands on something made from styrofoam.
"He wasn’t trying to protect me that time he broke my arm, was he?" He gave Duncan a big grin but his hands were shaking as he went for one of the paper cups. "Listen to Trina caterwauling up there. We’re all one big happy family, you know. Or not. Whatever sells more issues of Variety."
"I promise to leave you out of the article for school."
"That’s good," Logan said, smiling. "Write me out."
