Summary
That very first time, in that grimy alley in Liverpool, he'd wondered whether he was having a heart attack. He hadn't known what to call the feeling, not until Rebecca had labeled it as she tried to ground him. Ted is much more informed about this stuff now, but…something about this doesn't feel right.
or, since returning from a shortened stay in Kansas, Ted has been successfully hiding his deteriorating mental health from Beard and Rebecca–until a late night visit to A&E throws them all into disarray.

It was difficult for him, Qui-Gon knew. Obi-Wan had fought so hard for every modicum of control he had over his own life, and every inch of ground he had gained since leaving the Halls for the first time.
A new setback interrupts the official start of Anakin's apprenticeship, and tests everyone's patience as the three learn to navigate the dynamics of their new situation.

Summary
Every room he steps into, every cabinet he pulls open, every box he pulls free, releases a cloud of memories thicker than the dust that follows. With each passing day he disappears further and further into the fog that fills the house and he stretches his daily jogs longer and longer as a counter, the Kansas sun burning the back of his neck as he tries to quite literally outrun his past.
Ted's mother passes away. Fortunately he's still got lots of family to help him through it.

Summary
“There has to be something,” Trent muttered, furiously scrolling through his feed. Each suggestion he found was debunked by the next post, with many parents swearing up and down that certain techniques made the whole thing worse. Trent stopped on a video of a mother taking scissors to her daughter’s curls and bit down on an actual sob building in the back of his throat.
It was right before Trent let it fly that his mobile rang.
Coach Ted Lasso (from America).
Trent couldn’t say what possessed him to answer with his throat thick and his eyes prickling, but his traitorous hand had already swiped while his mouth said, “I have to shave my head.”
Or: 5 times Ted got to touch Trent's hair and one time he returned the favor.
