Summary
Sublimation
- Passing from one phase to another without transitioning through an intermediate phase.
- Where socially unacceptable impulses or idealizations are consciously transformed into socially acceptable actions or behavior, possibly resulting in a long-term conversion of the initial impulse.
Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews should probably have figured out the first time what this type of behavior meant.

Summary
Five minutes later, he sits back on his bed, pillow clutched triumphantly in his hands. Patrick is splayed out across his own bed, breathing hard with his hair curling out in five different directions. Jonny smugly clicks the television off with the remote, and then tosses the pillow next to him so he can climb under the sheets. Patrick sits up after a minute, tucks his hand under his chin and abruptly swipes his hand out into a point, straight at Jonny, with a glare.
Jonny blinks, and then Patrick translates. It figures the first thing Jonny’d learn in sign language is 'fuck you'.

Summary
"There's an itch. It eats you up inside. It's energy packed inside a globe, then shoved in your ribcage, just big enough that it strains the bones, and every hour that you leave it there, you risk something cracking. Something bursting."
"I don't know if I'm following," BJ confesses quietly.
"It's heat. It's goosebumps. It's getting sucked into a volcano because the only other way you can go is straight into space, where there's nothing and no one and you'll never be held or touched or kissed or fucked again. It's wondering if you're even worth the touching in the first place. And it's killing the wondering before it gets too loud, because what if it's infectious? And what if you start spreading it around to everybody else?"
~~~
During a weekend of R&R in Seoul with BJ, Hawkeye is forced to reckon with a whole mountain of things he's been repressing. He just wasn't expecting to have hands-on help—not after the conversations he and BJ have shared.
