Fics like When Sorrow Turns To Joy

They’ve always been so in sync, comfortable in each other’s space. Their bodies curve together, established patterns of whose arm goes where when they cuddle. Familiar routines of casual touch that Hugh never thought about much, before. It felt right, and that’s all he needed to know. Now, there’s something unsettling even if he can’t articulate it. This body is new, pristine, unmarred by the thousand little scrapes and bruises and love bites accumulated over four decades. Doctor Pollard pronounces it with an almost awed excitement, but for Hugh there’s nothing about it to celebrate. Paul touches him now, with a caress that he should want to lean into, but it’s all he can do not to shrink away. It feels wrong. This body doesn’t know Paul. Detailed canon-compliant expansion of Paul and Hugh's story, from “Saints of Imperfection” to post-Season 2, re-learning themselves and each other. Told from Hugh's perspective, with a heavy dose of backstory. Minor canon divergence from the beginning of Season Three.
