''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/34384198?view_full_work=true The Everyday Miscellaneous]]'' by snailmeamail
* Recommended by: Tropers/{{wolverinedoctorwho}}
* Status: Complete
* Synopsis: Months after ATKID is shut down for good, one case in the winter of '81 has changed everything. Now, in the spring of '82, between routine panic attacks and a mountain of new cases, Holden struggles to make sense of it all. The only thing keeping him grounded is something Bill had given him those many months ago. He knows he has to give it back, but doing so would require two things of him: talking to Bill--when their current relationship is rocky at best--and letting go of the only part of him he's ever gotten to possess. There are the grand things in life--emerald rings, a seafoam green house, a red pickup with a hatchet in its bed--but they are obnoxiously loud and gaudy compared to the everyday miscellaneous. The trivial, mundane objects of life have ghosts within them. For once, it's not just Holden's ghosts haunting him. It's Bill's, too. Or, four prosaic, everyday objects bill has given holden, and one thing holden gave him.
* Pairings: Holden Ford/Bill Tench
* Tags: Mutual Pining, Angst and Hurt/Comfort, Angst with a Happy Ending, Fluff and Angst, Internalized Homophobia, Period-Typical Homophobia, Canon-Typical Violence, Canon-Typical Mindfucking, Post Season 2, Panic Attacks, Suicidal Thoughts, Intrusive Thoughts, Hurt/Comfort, Divorce, Post-Canon, Serial Killers, Emetophobia
* Comment: Very good hurt-comfort, with lots of research shown. Both characters get to reflect on the events of the show, and everything is resolved in a fulfilling way. Really hones in on the hurt for Holden. The "four prosaic objects" bit fades out after the first few chapters, but is a good segue into the main plot of the fic.

* Comment: An interesting crossover featuring amazing characterization of the four leads, a more realistic [[spoiler: android revolution]] and an explanation into what deviancy and rA9 really are. Also features an interesting characterization of [[spoiler:[=RK900=]]].
