Summary
But he and Eli weren’t exactly on speaking terms at the moment.
Victor had not so much as given Eli the cold shoulder as he had completely frozen over, skin nearly tinged blue and glistening with frost. Icicles practically dripped from Victor’s pale lashes, threatening to skewer anyone who drew his frigid gaze for a moment too long—namely, one Eli Cardale.

Summary
A big, fat line of D’s ran down his screen—honestly, not that different from normal, all things considered.
But at the bottom, written in bright red letters, all caps, bolded for stupid emphasis as if he couldn’t tell something really fucking bad from something really fucking maybe okay actually, spelled his inescapable doom: MINIMUM GPA REQUIREMENT NOT MET, STUDENT ON ACADEMIC PROBATION UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. SEE ADVISOR IMMEDIATELY.
Fuck.
Dave Strider is a junior in college and nearing the end of his rope. After two years of fumbling his way through his computer science and engineering classes, the other shoe has finally dropped: he's fucked it up. Coping comes in the form of a loud-mouthed barista that Dave can't seem to do anything except enrage, while Karkat seems incapable of getting Dave to fuck off for good, for better or for worse. With a month-long winter break looming, loneliness begins to set in. Shit gets dire, bro.

Summary
Admittedly, Robby was more than just a bit prickly. But with Dennis, it wasn’t difficult to see beneath the hardened exterior that Robby had constructed after years of running the ED; skin like a scaled callus and an attitude to match. With Dennis, Robby saved a shred of that underlying kindness in the form of small smiles, a steadying hand, and a supportive word. All things Dennis wasn’t necessarily used to. It was… nice. Robby was nice.
Most of the time.
Halfway into his three-month rotation in the Pitt, Dennis takes advantage of a lull in the ED's near-constant madness to teach his chief attending, Dr. Robby, how to play a fishing minigame.

Summary
Victor Vale had gotten entirely too used to the ever-presence of his roommate-turned-best friend, but he’d be the last to admit it.
Their third year of college and second dorm room together had conditioned Victor to become accustomed to certain aspects of a shared life, where the edges of one person began to bleed into the edges of another, constituents becoming indistinguishable.
Victor had never been good at sharing.
