Thanks to everyone for joining this year’s Polyamorous Epifest! Over the next few days, we’ll be publishing masterposts based on the primary polyships of each work. In this post, we’re rounding up works that primarily focused on Parse, Bitty and Jack.
Doubt Comes In - by @thatsclassicsbaby - Parse/Bitty/Jack - 4k - T - Jack wakes up as he does most mornings, to the beeping of his alarm at 6:00 am. He slams the off button before it wakes up his boyfriends. He turns, seeing his boyfriends curled around each other and sleeping peacefully.
Are You Quick To Kiss? - by @iboughtaplant (stevie_RST) - Parse/Bitty/Jack - 8.7k - E - Jack, Kent, and Bitty figure it all out. I just takes Twitter DMs, Skype calls, an interrupted kiss, and a passive-aggressive mutual love confession for it to all come together.
Burn the Map and Run - by Ziaira - Parse/Bitty/Jack - 8.9k - M - The thing about Kenny and love is that it's complicated, right up until it isn't. It takes a five year tension, a quiche, a trip, and a kiss, but they get there eventually.
Anything Rather Than - by @agrossunderstatement (Pinkerton) - Parse/Bitty/Jack - 8.8k - E - The banns have been published, the engagement party is a fortnight away, and Mr. Eric Bittle has almost convinced himself that his betrothal to Mr. Kent Parson is a cause for celebration. Almost.
PBJ - Strawberry Wine - by @karin848 - Parse/Bitty/Jack - art - T - When Kent & Jack take time to find themselves after the aftermath of dropping from the draft, they find themselves working on the Bittle Ranch. Together, they also find young love with the son of their new boss.
I’m Coming Out, I Want The World To Know - by @iboughtaplant (stevie_RST) - Parse/Bitty/Jack - 6.7k - G - Five times Jack, Bitty, and Kent were worried about coming out as polyamorous and one time they didn’t have to be
To Make Us Right - by @antiarcticmonkeys (Regina_Writes) - Parse/Bitty/Jack - 18.3k - T - AU where the Stanley Cup finals come down to the Aces and the Falconers, and Kent watches in person as Jack makes history with Bitty.
Road Trip! - by @hitthebooksposts (bittycanbake) - Parse/Bitty/Jack - 5.5k - E - Eric lands a huge opportunity after pitching to FeedBuzz: a food road trip across the US with Eric's unique takes on what the continental US has to offer for foodies. Out on the road for much of the summer, the feelings that Eric, Jack and Kent had been developing for each other are put on hold. That is until Kent drags Jack out on the road to meet Eric in Bar Harbor, Maine.
Objects in Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear - by @agrossunderstatement (Pinkerton) - Parse/Bitty/Jack - 3.7k - T - Jack and Kent have been rebuilding their friendship. Kent needs someone to ride with him on a road trip to safely deliver his cat to his summer home. Jack sees a wonderful opportunity for his boyfriend to get to know his former best friend. What could go wrong?
not what it looks like - by @halfdesertedstreets - Parse/Bitty/Jack - 13.2k - T - Despite how it may look from an outsider’s perspective, it’s not as if Bitty planned to fake-date his actual crush in order to help said crush avoid making things awkward with his ex, who he may or may not still have feelings for. It just…sort of happened. (…though to be fair to Kent, Bitty is kind of the one who started it.)
