(NEW) Give Me Yours Thoughts and I'll Give You Your Dreams
AU where PatPran never became friends as kids, living at opposite ends of their street, attending different schools and generally being kept more separate by their parents whilst also being fed stories about the other. They attend separate universities and go down very different trajectories. Pat goes into his father’s business and accidentally reaches the grand old age of thirty without having ever had sex. When he wakes up on his thirtieth birthday, he is horrified to discover that there have been unforeseen repercussions to his chastity—he has very suddenly become a mind reader. Even worse, Pran has strolled back into his life as the chief architect of a huge building project that Pat’s family business can’t afford to reject. The two immediately fall back into their animosity and things might never have changed had Pat not accidentally touched him during an argument and been thrown into a very graphic fantasy of exactly how Pran wanted to shut him up…

Can I Get a Kiss?
If Pat and Pran had grown up as next door best friends, Pat would have been besotted with him. They would have grown up with adults teasing them about it.

So when he asks Pat at fourteen if Pat wants to kiss him, it's because he's genuinely curious. And when Pat asks, "Can I?" with big wide eyes, Pran shrugs and says "I don't mind," because he doesn't.

You Call That a Kiss?

There was a Pran before, who had fallen in love with a boy who could never love him in return, and there was a Pran after. (Inspired by the scene of Pran lying on his bed, staring at the ceiling, wearing the clothes from the rooftop scene. Yes, I wrote two angsty drabbles about what happened after the rooftop. Episode 5 broke me.)
