"He opened his eyes today. The first thing he asked for was you." Bilbo goes to see Thorin for the first time since The Battle of The Five Armies ended.
"I'm stuck here in this tiny closet for god knows how long while my freedom and repair of the city is left in the hands of- of a pigeon lover!" * John and Rodney get trapped in a transporter with no promise of freedom for at least two hours. Rodney's claustrophobia begins to take hold of him and John must think of a way to keep him calm. Unfortunately, it doesn't
While going down to Rodney's lab to get him for dinner, John overhears a conversation between two techs.
It was 2 am when Rodney burst into John's quarters unannounced. After Rodney stepped in the door shut swiftly behind him and John couldn't so much as furrow his brow before Rodney began to speak.

"I know it's been a while John, but I think living with someone else would be good for you. You and Dorian are both different. You make amazing partners, I don't see how that would change anything if you became roommates. "Besides, coffee isn't breakfast. I'm sure you would get a decent meal in once in a while if you had Dorian cooking in the kitchen."
After finally being able to go home after the events of "Straw Man" John invites Dorian over to have a drink. Or make him some noodles. Or just sit on on his couch.
On the edge of Georgetown in Washington D.C. there was a café that was named Enterprise Fine Brews. Every morning Leonard would come in and order a large black coffee to go. One day in the late fall something changed in his daily visit to the café in Georgetown. Instead of being Uhura's smile that greeted him at the counter, an unfamiliar bright-eyed smirk graced his vision instead
