The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Or not.
Grace is a master of hugs and Steve is her student.
Danny feels more than a little foolish as he lets Steve pull him to his feet, as he follows him–his hand clasped loosely in Steve’s own–out onto the back yard.
Maybe it’s the setting sun, how it’s reflecting off the water and off of the short bristles of Steve’s buzzed hair and his not-quite-beard (and making the peekaboo grey hairs shine), that is making Danny’s eyes feel a little hot.
Steve grabs the edge of Danny’s unnervingly teal-colored t-shirt and tries to pull him back to bed.
Steve learns he doesn’t like it when the shoe’s on the other foot.

Some days are hellish.

The team struggles to locate Steve when he disappears, throwing them into a world of espionage. Not only do they have to race against a ticking clock, but they must enlist the help of a known enemy, and team-up with an agent of the NSA whom they may not be able to trust. (Set a few weeks after 2x15)
WWII Pacific Theater based AU.
Octane fuels Kono’s blood, the same untamed rocket fuel in McGarrett’s. That’s why Kono asked her boss if he’d train her as a sniper. (Set early Season One)
Danny’s brain catches up with current events, his face going white. “Oh my God. Look at you. With your Rambo paint and hardware from the latest issue of Guns and Ammo. You’re in Super-SEAL mode! Please, please don’t tell me those clowns were right and that you’re the strike-force?”
This isn’t the first time Steve’s had a gun pointed at the back of his head and judging by the buoyancy of the speeding vessel, there’s a twenty percent chance the shooter will miss. Pretty decent odds.
A house, a family, countless regrets. Steve has always had holes to fill.
If Danny’s a little baffled by Steve’s notions of R&R, well, he just wasn’t expecting this…
Steve may be on the good drugs, but he’s not as unaware as his partner thinks he is.
This time, Steve’s crash manifests in finding his way to Danny’s hotel without noticing, instead of in him breaking into the governor’s mansion and being arrested.
