Summary
Without any apparent reason, Chan’s friend group seems to be cursed with always blowing their relationships up within three months or under. And he, epicenter of them all, is naturally the one stuck with the most colorful fiascos, as if whatever doom they carry around among their lines were blonde, sentient and particularly fixated on him.

No one needed to know the specifics of how she acquired the creature's shedded skin. All the lore said was "post-coital," and she could claim to have slathered up any manner of animal and set it out as bait.
But she was much more hands-on than that.

Summary
In this AU prequel, I shamelessly (but with permission) follow on from "False Impressions," a wonderful story by Jellico of a younger set of brothers trying to understand each other, and a father able to be part of young Heath's life. This premise for the timeline and AU, the concept of how Tom Barkley might interact with this new son, intrigued me. I hope I've done Jellico justice. I recommend you read "False Impressions" first prior to starting "Explanations," if you haven't already done so.
After posting the first chapter, which was intended to be a standalone, the author, Jellico, kindly encouraged me to continue the stories.
They are all stand alone, some couched in humor, some a little angsty, all showing the Barkley Family as a whole as they come to know this newest member, and he them. There are currently 12 standalone stories (chapters), but there are definitely plans for more as time goes on.
I sincerely hope you enjoy it.
