@Connors TELL ME WHAT'S HAPPENING

Summary

On popular request, Connors liveblogs Seb and Hammer’s long overdue emotional conversation from Toronto.
Or, a group chat texting fic retelling of Last Seen 48 Hours Ago.
POV Cliff Marlow <3

Notes

An entirely self-indulgent fic because I wanted to explore Connors' character voice a bit more, and he needed an opportunity to shine, but my everlasting love for Marlow endures, so it's in Marlow POV. This fic moves the plot nowhere and does exactly nothing, but my brain needed to write it, so here we are. Enjoy!
