He had been really tempted to just crawl into bed the moment he had entered his bedroom, and maybe he would have, blood and grime and all, if it hadn't been for Danny. Danny, who had found him against all odds. Danny, who had gone on a black op to fucking North Korea and had risked everything to save him. Danny, who hadn't left his side since. (Coda to episode 2x10)

Fix-it fic: "You'll never guess who I met on the plane", the first sentence on Steve's first postcard reads and Danny can't help the smile crossing his face. For one, he's not surprised by Steve sending postcards. The old-fashioned way. It's a very Steve thing to do. The other thing that makes Danny smile at the postcard in his hand: he knows exactly who Steve had met on the plane.

Danny's version of episode 10x20, where he is a) on Spring Break vacation with the kids, b) worries about Steve and c) is getting progressively more concerned about the COVID-19 pandemic.

Tani catches a private moment between Steve and Danny—and she can't not look.

Three times it's Bing Crosby playing on the radio. Three different situations, three different people and the emotional impact the song "Mele Kalikimaka" has on them. Or: Steve realizes what he's lost, Danny has an epiphany and Grace misses home.

He hadn't exactly talked with Danny about spending the evening together, but there's this burning need in him to check up on Danny, to make sure he is okay. Even if he had seen Danny only a couple of hours before. (An extended version of the last scene of episode 8x11.)

"Here we go again," the Camaro thinks... He has a lot of stories to tell, like a fly on the wall.

It was getting late, and Quinn should probably finish her beer and leave. Only she was having more fun and felt much more comfortable than she had in a long while. How had she gotten involved with this crazy bunch of people? (Quinn Liu POV)

He knows Steve's got this. He knows Steve and he trusts Steve and this is neither their first bomb, nor the scariest.

Steve is 16 and desperate enough to steal a car to get away from the Army-Navy Academy. What follows are the most crazy 24 hours of his life, including hitting rock bottom before finding a friend in the stranger who helped putting him there. (AU inspired by episode 9x10, where it is mentioned that Steve stole that car and Joe White got him out of police custody.)

Danny isn't a Haole anymore.

Everything was slowly but nicely settling back into routine and for once Danny wouldn't complain: Grace was cleared fit for school and was doing a great job catching up on what she had missed. Five-0 was back on track, having solved two cases only last week, and Steve had stopped asking uncalled-for questions about Rachel and looked like he was finally getting more sleep than two h

Joe had been right, of course, he is looking out for the people in his life, for his ohana, for his family—it's the very reason he is sitting here right now, keeping watch. (Coda to 9x12)

"Is there something you wanna share?" Lou asked and Steve wasn't surprised. Lou might not be a detective, but he had great people skills. Steve had expected questions, had expected them even earlier than now with the way he had behaved today, the things he had said so candidly. (Coda to 9x14)

Grace doesn't really think that Steve is upset with her, but she feels the need to apologize nonetheless. And she's nervous as hell about it, too. She has been waiting to talk to him for three weeks now, and between school and staying at her mom's and his work it's a rare chance to catch him on his own. (POV Grace)

In hindsight, it should have been clear from the moment he woke up in the field hospital, finding Danny at his side, watching over him. Danny had flown all the way, all of 7,500 miles, to fucking Afghanistan to save his ass and why would he do that? (Coda to 4x21)

When Steve arrives at his house late in the evening, he's a little surprised, but also incredibly grateful to find the Camaro parked in front of it. He is exhausted and he knows he won't be good company tonight, but it will be nice to have Danny and the kids around for a while. (McDanno Pre-Slash)

Dress-up and play pretend is Charlie's favorite game, has been for a while, and he has very clear ideas of his imaginary personas. He's either a dragon-pirate, or a firefighter dog (there's some cartoon series that he loves) and since Mary and Joanie visited two weeks ago, his favorite is being a princess. (Charlie-centric; established McDanno)

Michael's thoughts the last time we see him, right at the end of season 3.

Before I got burned, these four people wouldn't have made it on the list of people I'd want to strand on a desert island with, yet they are the best team I could have wished for.
