There were many things the ARC team was good about keeping under wraps- anomalies, dinosaurs, creature incursions, and destruction of public property.... One thing they were not so good at was keeping a certain relationship under wraps.
In fact, the quickly growing relationship between the resident team genius and the head of security was perhaps the worst-kept secret the ARC had ever attempted to keep hush-hush. Not that it mattered to Becker and Connor, or to anyone really. It was just one of those things everyone knew and accepted, and for the most part, seemed to actually encourage more than anything.
So, it was no surprise when Becker walked into the break room early Monday morning after a rare weekend off, a huge grin on his face. He was almost whistling to himself as he made his coffee, completely oblivious to the looks Danny and Matt were giving him and the giggles coming from Jenny and Sarah.
It wasn't until Becker turned around with his cup of coffee in and hand and found all four staring at him that anything even registered.
"What? Do I have something on my face?"
"Yeah as a matter of fact you do" Danny said with a smirk as he looked at Matt and then back to Becker. "That shit-eating-grin for one thing!"
"What are you..."
"Oh don't pretend like you don't know what we are talking about," Jenny said with a sigh as she rolled her eyes.
"It's a Monday and you are acting like it's Friday afternoon," Sarah pointed out with a knowing grin and a gleam in her eyes. "What's going on?"
"Nothing is going on" Becker said maybe a little too quickly and firmly. "Nothing is going on at all."
Jenny and Sarah exchanged looks and shook their heads.
"Denial," all four of them said at the same time as they all gave Becker a knowing look.
"Come on Hils, spill it," Matt said with a grin as he dropped the nickname that really one of them ever used, the flush that appeared on Becker's cheeks confirming everyone's suspicions....

I would like to thank @ispridestillasin for their post about Murray Mysteries, I'm obsessed with this podcast now. For any Dracula Daily and Re: Dracula enjoyers, I highly recommend.
It's Modern AU Dracula in podcast form, and it's excellent. All the emotional beats and broad storytelling strokes from the original are still there, but the details are more modern and fun.
Some of the characters are genderbent, so we have Abigail Van Helsing, Jane Seward, and nonbinary Art Holmwood. Almost all of the core characters are canonically queer. Quincy is still a lovable himbo who shoots at bats.
I really, really love this. I think the rest of the Dracula Daily/Re: Dracula fandom would too.
Was going thru my gimbops album and came across these. Don't think I've posted 'em here before so, here they are: Gimbops bullying teammates, your honour. 🤪🤪🤪
