    Summary

    It starts like this:

    Frank gets caught. He does not voluntarily give up information about the stolen drugs – he gets caught.

    Big difference.

    -

    Frank Langdon and the years following that one shift.

    Summary

    "So are you a Survivor superfan?" He asks—be normal Frank, be normal—walking toward some rocks at the far end of the beach.

    "Huge," Mel says with a wide smile. "What about you?"

    "Me, not really," Frank admits. "I watched a few seasons here and there," —one season, if he's honest— "and I auditioned just for fun," —he hadn't even known that Theo had sent in that stupid video— "and now here I am."

    "Here you are," Mel echoes and Frank finds himself a little lost in the melody of her voice. It's lower than maybe he would expect, but the flow of it is an easy rhythm, a pleasing melody.

    Entrancing.

    "Here we are." Finds it necessary to add on, and the smile that blooms on Mel's face tells him he's said the right thing.

    Fuck.

     

    Or, the Survivor AU.

    Summary

    The first time Frank sees Mel’s apartment, it’s an accident.
    The second time he sees it, he lingers.
    And on the third time, he’s invited to stay.

    Summary

    He told her once that she was the only editor who didn’t try to wring the wild out of him. She liked that. She would have told him to reuse the phrase in a column if she wasn’t selfish enough to keep it for herself.

    Langdon is the star columnist of popular wilderness adventure magazine The Backpacker. Mel is the editor who helps him stay that way.

    When Langdon starts blowing through deadlines and stops answering calls, Mel decides the best course of action is to meet him where he's at.
