Summary
Missing and specific scenes from The Evolution of The Mathematics of Friendship to The Attraction Equation from different points of view. These are almost chronological, but to avoid you having to read the chapter called Applied Probability three times in a row, I'm posting all of Charlie's point of view at once, then Don and Ian in chronological order.
And boy, do these guys see things Colby didn't.

Summary
Colby's got his man, more or less. He's also got a job that's mostly overtime, coworkers, a boss who he sees far too much for anyone's comfort, and his phone keeps ringing at the wrong times. Oh, and his mother would like to see him, please.
Or: Colby plays a lot of chess and watches math happen. With kissing.

Summary
David has a date that goes a little off-book. Colby is called upon to stem the panic, but Colby's a bit more intrigued than actually helpful. Charlie does math on windows. David reluctantly talks about sex. Colby willingly brags about sex.
I have a feeling that the next story in this series is just going to be sex.

Summary
Season 6. Episode 8. Ultimatum. Ian takes Colby hostage in a prison and it's rough, folks. I used all of their dialogue and I think I made it work. Squint a little, maybe.
While working on this story I found some major plot holes. Not mine--theirs. This episode makes no sense, so I'm doing what I can here. LOL
