five fic friday
I haven't done this in ages, and honestly I meant to last Friday but [waves vaguely at idk whatever]; I have quite the backlog of things I like that I want to share, so! looks like this week is a batch of post-s2 fic:
Fortunate (T, 3797) by @jellybeanium124 - oh man. the first of a pair of "Stede's having a time post-canon" fics, and this one I had to read on two separate occasions because I was having a time the first time and just kinda froze. hahahaha stede's doing great everything's fine nope no issues at all (lying). it's very good.
gonna build you up, gonna help you believe (T, 7936) by @saltpepperbeard - the second on that theme: I think I've read this one like four times. the way that a social interaction kicks open all of Stede's anxieties, mannnnnnnnnn.
Caution: Spider on Board (T, 2756) by @yergink - I love the way this kind of silly story about Ed and spiders becomes a really thoughtful meditation on danger and fear and identity.
I hope that someone gets my... (T, 1545) - a lovely little piece about remembering why you love someone and getting through boring little stresses, featuring one of Stede's letters.
The Inn By The Sea (M, 21k) - A truly fantastic plotty innkeepers era fic, the story is compelling, the narrative voices (both Ed and Jeffery Fettering!) are incredibly vivid, the dialogue is sharp as hell. THIS IS SO GOOD AND I NEED EVERYONE TO READ IT IMMEDIATELY. I'm genuinely angry, not at anyone, but just that the vibes were apparently such that the author felt they needed to stop posting. Apparently the rest of the story will be available as a Google Doc? I believe I remember who the author is on here, but out of respect for the anonymizing that happened after I started reading, I'm not going to link them. In any case, I am legit obsessed and I need y'all to join me in my obsession.

JIMMY FINALE SPOILERS (but i tagged it so)
If Jimmy can get there on his own, he can come back on his own. My brain is aggressively rejecting any idea that he's gone for good or impossible to reach. It's kinda of funny to see it happen, I'm well aware of it but I'm just going with it. I don't know how much i will even muse on emp s2 post canon.
But.
After Joel's finale, i was thinking through "Jimmy knows people can get Actual God Joel's attention but he refuses to cause Joel didn't say goodbye" and then Joel show up to demand Jimmy's attention (and kisses).
Now I'm thinking fWhip finds out Jimmy left and tracks him down like the insane goblin he is, and Jimmy knows about the shrine and that gives him what he needs to have an actual conversation. That and the emotional space of having left and reflected, and fWhip's panic at Jimmy being gone and seeing what his life is like both without his gobland obligations and without Jimmy - and friends gone too!
I gave up on writing real fWhimmy set during the season, maybe this is what i needed. (God I'm going to miss them)
And in my headcanon Joel can physically manifest wherever he wants. Like Weekend Town. It really seems very plausible, and Joel can be annoyed Jimmy ran off and then argue briefly before kissing. I have TWO late season emp2 smallidarity fics in actual progress, so maybe i should write those lol.
Also Jimmy could come back to visit and be surprised at who is gone! Feelings!!
Oh i haven't watched Scott's, but he went adventuring? Obvs he can show up in WT for feelings and kisses. (They had so much unresolved sexual tension lets be real) Everyone gets to have feelings about other people leaving empires, including "well it made sense for me to leave but you should have stayed (for my emotional reasons i don't understand)". I could do a series of NO NOT ANOTHER SERIES NO uh hey one could do a series of diff visitors to weekend town!
Here's what i said on discord immediately after watching (in a parked car)
"Well i shrieked and literally pounded the roof so ill call it a win
Did i get any resolution between Jimmy and anyone? No.
Did Jimmy fly over to Joel and call him attractive? Yes.
Did we see fWhip? No.
Did i have feelings about Jimmy talking about him and his self-esteem? Yes.
Had it been so long since the shrine that I had full on given up hope Jimmy would ever see it? Yes.
Did i lose my fucking shit? Yes.
Does it give me fic fodder? Absolutely, ideas churning.
Did I literally scream about Jimmy being inducted into a lineage with mandatory bisexuality? Yes
Do i want other people to write Jimmy/old sheriff? Yes."
-----
Now, asap, just give me a new long term smp with at least some lore and rp featuring (at minimum) Jimmy fwhip scott joel oli lizzie, and I'm good. It's not that i need it for fic, i just need boys crashing into Jimmy's streams.
(if you are inspired by any of my fic ideas, go ahead, just let me know if you are working on one so i don't write sometime too similar!)
Empires season 2. It's been real, y'all. (I will not stop talking about them ever. Just less after awhile)

Hello Nell, it's been a while since I sent you a fic request! I have a challenge for you - no worries if you're not interested though. In anticipation of Shadow and Bone season 2, how about Kaz/Inej/Jesper (specifically the show version of them) and "I didn't realise we were dating!" Jesper has talked himself into believing that he is just imagining being romantically involved with Kaz and Inej :)
(In which I don't have the time to rewrite In Defiance of All Geometry but a lot of people give serious thought to inventing powerpoint to explain things to poor Jesper. Set in some nebulous point in canon, probably post-s1 and pre-s2, but I haven't wached the show since it came out so you'll have to forgive some inaccuracies!)
It’s not that Jesper is lonely.
For one thing, he’s an incredibly charming person, thank you very much, and he makes friends (and other acquaintances, and occasionally, when luck isn’t with him, enemies) wherever he goes. For another, he has a crew these days, steady backup in any rough patch.
It’s just that the two people he sees most often, the two people who have his back more than anyone else, the two people he trusts (and who he can never tell he trusts them because they’d flee the city) are stupidly in love, and Jesper is not meant to be a third wheel.
Somehow, though, he still finds himself sitting and waiting it out while Kaz and Inej exchange looks full of all sorts of things that they then have to explain to him out loud because he can’t do their freaky mind-reading trick. And fading tactfully back when they’ve had a rough job and need to stare at each other and say weird intense things to each other.
“I don’t grudge it for a moment, you understand,” he tells Nina, who is very sympathetic as long as he lets her speak in her turn and who is less embarrassed in funds than he habitually is and buys them drinks when men trying to get her attention aren’t doing it. “It’s just awkward to be there, and they do it in front of me a lot.”
Nina frowns at him. “They’re both pretty private people,” she says, in a leading tone.
Jesper does not like leading tones when he doesn’t know where he’s being led. He groans. “I know that! That’s why I try to keep giving them privacy! It’s just that apparently they can’t restrain themselves long enough for me to leave them alone!”
Nina’s continuing frown takes a turn for the embarrassingly pitying. “Those two never do anything by accident. Surely you know that by now.”
“Whatever you’re trying to be delicate about, please stop, I have a reputation for being unable to take a hint.”
“I can certainly see why,” she says, and refuses to say another word on the subject.
*
The other problem is, and Jesper will take this one to the grave if his face doesn’t give him away, the problem is that Kaz and Inej are the two most amazing people he knows. They’re also terrifying, but sad as it is, Jesper seems to have a weakness for terrifying people. Inej and her silence and her very scary knives, Kaz and his very scary brain, they’re going to be able to burn down the world someday, and for some reason, they’re letting Jesper come along for the ride.
Jesper’s got an excellent opinion of his own good looks, intelligence, and skill as a sharpshooter. He’s an asset. He’s just not the sort of person who gets ballads and legends written about him, and the other two are.
So if, sometimes, he stares at them while they’re doing the freaky exchanging-looks thing and it’s not annoyance he’s feeling, he hardly thinks that anybody could blame him.
*
“You keep disappearing after our jobs,” Inej says in the dark.
Jesper yelps. “Must you do that?”
“Do what?” she asks, so dry and absolutely making fun of him. “You used to want to celebrate. Is something wrong?”
“Does Kaz know you’re asking me this?” She gives him a long, judgmental look. Right. Stupid question. She and Kaz plan everything out together, these days. “Okay, fine, obviously. And no, nothing is wrong, does something have to be wrong for me to give you privacy?”
Inej frowns, and Jesper groans and goes to sit down on his bed to start unlacing his boots. To his surprise, Inej sits down next to him a moment later, arm brushing against his. “You’re part of this with us. We don’t need privacy from you.”
First Nina feels sorry for him and now Inej does. And possibly also Kaz, though the thought of being pitied by Kaz is a horrible one. It doesn’t seem to be in his range of emotions, which to Jesper’s knowledge are plotting, anger, and utter devotion to Inej. “You two aren’t exactly babes in the wood, no matter how slow you’re going, and I don’t want to catch sight of anything that would make Kaz put a hit out on me.”
“He would never.”
“You’re right. I think he’d have the good manners to kill an old friend face to face.”
Inej frowns at him in confusion. Jesper waits for her to try to convince him and herself that Kaz would never kill a member of their crew for any reason, or that Kaz, who would probably wear a veil over his head if he’d still get respect that way because he hates anyone to know he’s got anything so human as skin, would be fine with Jesper seeing anything that comes out in the natural course of amorous activities. Instead, she just watches, and after an excruciating interval, says “Hm.”
And then, before he can ask her what that’s supposed to mean, she disappears in that special Wraith way she has, leaving him confused and annoyed and a little bit worried that Kaz might kill him after all.
*
Kaz does not kill him. Or yell at him, or threaten him, or anything else. Kaz pays for a drink and stakes him in a game and sits next to him while he plays it, intimidating the rest of the table so much Jesper actually wins. He gets them an easy job where Jesper gets to shoot a hole through a man’s hat and gives him the grimace-twitch that serves him as a real smile.
After, during their celebrations, Kaz and Inej sit on either side of him instead of all wrapped up in each other, and Inej leans against Jesper and drinks and laughs, and Kaz doesn’t kill him or even particularly look like he wants to.
“Yes, I get it, you value my friendship, it’s very sweet of both of you,” Jesper says later, when Inej is asleep against his shoulder. It’s kind of nice, being trusted like that.
Kaz stares at him coldly for a good thirty seconds. Jesper waits for a blistering insult, or at best a reminder that he ought to get some rest himself. “Hm,” he says instead, and when Jesper tries to ask what that means, shushes him, looking at Inej meaningfully.
*
“I don’t know what we’d do without you to make us smile, Jesper,” Inej says quietly, lounging on his bed, a habit she’s somehow picked up.
“Your terrible luck shames me,” says Kaz, and spends an hour making him learn to count cards.
“You’re a mess, Jesper,” says Nina with no sympathy at all when he brings his bafflement to her again. “I’d tell you what to do, but it’s going to be a lot funnier to watch you figure it out.”
*
Not every job can go well, not even for the best crew in Ketterdam. They set out to divest a merchant of his ill-earned gains, and end up on the run from his private security all across the city. Kaz is somewhere hidden, not being the running type, but Inej and Jesper have been running for long enough that Jesper’s lungs are starting to burn, and while Inej could disappear if she wanted to, for some reason she’s not doing it.
Jesper isn’t good at planning jobs out, all the thousand iterations of a plan that Kaz can come up with and switch between at a second’s notice. One thing he is very good at, though, is improvising. When there’s a convenient alley, he grabs Inej’s hand, pulls her in, and kisses her. It’s a classic distraction technique, and gives him a chance to pluck off his hat, muss up her braid, and make them look like two young lovers who have been at it a while, not a pair of criminals on the run.
Sure enough, the steps of the security slow when they pass them, but they don’t stop, and Jesper kisses Inej for a few seconds more before he backs off. “Do not stab me for that,” he says.
Inej frowns at him. “Stab you? Why would I stab you?”
He frowns right back at her. “Because I kissed you without asking.” He picks up his hat and then freezes. “Wait. Don’t tell Kaz. Kaz really will stab me. You like me at least enough to keep me alive, right?”
“We need to meet up with Kaz,” she says, still looking worried about him, even in the midst of this job knowing something that he doesn’t. “Everything will make a lot more sense then.”
*
It’s dawn before the three of them meet up, after a lot more evasive maneuvers and a little regrouping and a called in favor that got the unfortunate merchant dumped in the harbor for some nearby fishermen to pull out.
By then, Jesper is exhausted enough that his murder might be a blessing in disguise, so he doesn’t protest when Inej drags him into the room with Kaz and says “He still doesn’t know. He kissed me and he still doesn’t know.”
“Don’t you, Jesper?” Kaz inquires. That’s a dangerous tone of voice.
Jesper, pushed past all endurance, throws his hands up. “Of course I don’t! Why would I know anything? Nina won’t tell me, you two insist that you don’t want privacy despite that being a thing nearly universally desired by all lovers and you don’t really seem like the type to want an audience so I assume that includes you … it’s very trying!”
Kaz smiles. It’s one of the dangerous ones. All the ones that don’t look like weird grimaces are dangerous. “You’re right. We don’t want an audience. Or only a very specific audience, and not as much as we want a participant. You kissed the Wraith. If she didn’t want you to, she would be handing me your liver right now.”
Jesper looks between them, even more baffled. “You need a proxy? I thought you were just going slow about the touching thing, but I suppose I’ve done worse things for people I liked less.”
“Intriguing idea, but also not my point,” says Kaz. “I staked your bet. Have you ever known me to make a bad one?”
“You were being nice?”
“I’m not nice,” says Kaz, and kisses him. It’s quick and brutal and Jesper sits limply on the floor when Kaz is finished with him for the very simple reason that he’s too surprised for his legs to hold him.
“Now do you understand?” asks Inej.
Jesper takes a moment to recalculate his entire life like he might recalculate a shot when the wind picks up. He thinks about being included past all reason, about how Inej and Kaz use words and not touch with each other and, it seems, with him, about good bets and bad bets and Inej not stabbing him in that alley. He thinks, and he gives them his most charming grin. “Maybe you should explain it to me some more.”
Inej grins. Kaz grimaces. Very little of the explaining that follows is verbal.
*
“I regret ever wanting this to work out,” Nina says a few days later, but she grins and lets him buy her a drink, and really, Jesper is pretty sure he’s never had fewer problems in his life.

Anytime haha (that's a threat, tangents in bound, buckle up lol)
I honestly forgot about Hunter's fall on Daro, that's a good point (though I will say Tech's fall was a lot higher, plus the railcar would've fallen on top of him. Could still work, yes, but would take a lot more explaining/stretching). And I should say, the "rolling my eyes at Tech girlies' denial" joke has nothing to do with fanon stuff! To each their own of course, write your fics and au's, that's what they're for! But to me, in terms of canon like this is it. The show is over. If the writers were going to bring him back then they would have. The Batch got their send off and I wouldn't want that messed with. (Like I'll read Fives and Echo reunion fics all day, but I don't ever want him to actually come back in canon bc that's just not a good writing choice, you know?)
Personally, as a writer in the post-"Somehow Palpatine returned" era, I'm generally of the opinion that characters should stay dead, but as with anything it can work if you do it right. Setting headcanon stuff aside and looking at what we did get: For me, Tech coming back would've had to be handled extremely well for it to be a good narrative choice (which frankly, doesn't really seem like something the show was prepared to do :/ )
The difference with Nemec is that I don't think he should have died in the first place (which I guess plenty of people would say the same about Tech but at that point we're talking about a WHOLE different story). It served no purpose narratively or in the story (as the post I linked above explains more) especially since Rex's clones never even showed up again so there's zero difference if he had just lived. His death IS narratively weightless (a split second shot vs like the whole s2 finale hinging around Tech's death), so undoing it wouldn't negatively impact the story (doesn't affect themes, arcs, stakes, and character choices). And it could also have many story benefits in seeing more of a character whose potential was unnecessarily cut off after only ~6 mins of screen time (as opposed to Tech's two whole seasons of development). Like I said, if we ever do get a clone rebellion show (more potential canon) I think Nemec deserves to be a part of it, and I guess this theory is a way for that to happen within the limits of canon
(Main character favoritism/red shirt side character treatment is also a HUGE writing pet peeve of mine in general (all it does is make the mc's plot armor more apparent!) so that has a part in this too lol)
Now! To digress even further:
Just wanna say, I don't think it's fair to say Tech's sacrifice was useless.
He didn't know that Omega was a target at that point, so her capture has nothing to do with it. His sacrifice wasn't technically (lol?) for the success of the mission, it was, in the moment, purely to save his family. Bc if he hadn't given his life both cars would have fallen and they all would have died. The fact that they are alive means that his sacrifice worked and has meaning (unlike say Echo's original 'death' in TCW which had no impact on the Citadel mission, or Fireball's sacrifice if Nemec dies 10 mins later. Both of those were unlucky deaths too btw unlike Tech's which was a knowing choice, like Hevy and Hardcase's)
And I think that's what Hunter's getting at with "we're not gonna waste it." Bc if Tech gave his life for theirs, he doesn't want to throw that away by putting their lives at risk again (and yes Hunter's incessant 'refusal of the call' is frustrating as heck (like I have THOUGHTS about this that I've been trying to work out in many a draft posts rn lol) but it is consistent for his character. And if we consider that he is currently grieving a brother he didn't have to lose, it does makes sense (like to him his hesitancy about the mission was just proven horribly right and he wants to prevent that from happening again)). Anyway, point being Tech's sacrifice isn't useless, narratively or otherwise, because in this context, the direct result of it is this:
So in a way the Batch happily living the life they choose is how they honor Tech and make his sacrifice worth it
(which like maybe I'm reading into that a bit and giving more thematic credit than is due, it would've been nice to have a line or something about that, but wHaTeVeR)
I just
look at him
look how cute he is
ahhhhhh
#whenever i do parenthesis within parentheses i know i picked the right name for my blog lol#i know people have strong feelings about this which is why i've been hesitant to open the tech lives can of worms#for the record my opinions/experience of the show and what *i* would want from the story/writing do not have to impact anyone else's!#like seriously headcannon and au however you want i won't stop you#this is not to discount any of that stuff#and i know thats more what you were talking about but i had some thoughts to share i guess#lol i need people to talk to about this show apparently#iko56trtgf4#<that was my cat stepping on my keyboard#felt like i should leave it#tbb#tbb tech#tbb analysis#tbb critical#writing#writing pet peeves#discussion#character death impermanence is lowkey ruining storytelling#but it is where fanfic thrives and no one can take that away from you#folklore at it's finest

Please recommend some of your fav Rio fics!
Of course, anon! Since you asked for Rio fics, I'm going to guess you meant Rio POV fics? If not, I'm sorry, haha, because that's what I've collated, but I hope you give these a shot regardless! They're all fics I think are pretty great. ;-)
Below a cut, because this got long.
But when he does reappear at the store—she still doesn't hear him coming, she needs to work on that—she's wearing a fuckin' dress, and he's glad she hasn't seen him yet because he can't stop himself from grinning.
Maybe it ain't for him, but given the fact that he doesn't think he's seen her legs since he came back—aside from that one night at the bar when she was definitely feeling herself—it seems like this is an intentional break in the pattern. Either way, he fuckin' loves the idea that she's been dressing up all week, not sure if he's coming but wanting to be ready if he does.
Now Use Both Hands by ms_scarlet / @mego42 6k words. Explicit. Beth x Rio. S3 canon divergence.
Ooooof, this fic causes me physical pain, but I love it a whole lot. Meg really captures Beth and Rio at their most acidic, their most sharp edged, while also managing to balance that with the feelings they desperately don’t want to have. It’s a bit magic, and the fact that she follows this up with another fave, Listening Through the Air Shaft is *chef’s kiss*.
- - - -
When he wakes, he's in a hospital bed, mouth dry as bone and he can taste blood, stale and metallic, on his tongue. The pain in his chest has been dulled by the drugs, but it still lingers, a persistent ache that spikes with every breath.
By all rights, he's a dead man walking.
Ten hours, they had him in surgery. From the look of his chart, he'd flatlined twice, and he can feel the consequences of that, see it in the bruises on his chest, the exhaustion lining the faces of his family. He'd woken to a little hand in his, Pop's cheeks damp with tears, and shit, it'd been close. Too close.
Bury a Friend by @ejunkiet >1k words. Mature. Beth x Rio S3 canon divergence.
Pivoting from 3.01, this fic is a wonderful, quiet character study that looks at Rio in the aftermath of the shooting before he explodes back into Beth’s life. It pulses with emotion and with the promise of catharsis, and it’s just a really special little fic. The Rio voice is terrific too.
- - - -
He finally gets what he needs one day when Elizabeth’s wearing this tight black sweater with a keyhole that shows off just enough to make Rio’s jaw rock. It’s so out of the ordinary, so unlike her ugly li’l sweaters or her surburban mama button-ups, he does a double take, head whippin’ around so fast that she catches it immediately. Then she catches where his gaze lands, where it keeps landin’ through their whole stilted, irritated conversation, and he sees her chest pinken til he can count her freckles. He sucks his lower lip into his mouth, and her lips fall open just the smallest bit, and then she looks up at him.
Eyes locked on each other, Rio takes a step closer. Elizabeth doesn’t back away.
I Will Collect You and Capture You by @foxmagpie 17k words. Explicit. Beth x Rio S3 canon divergence.
I feel like I've recced this fic 1,200 times at this point, haha, but it really is one of my favourite fics in the fandom. It has this sort of grip on you as a reader that almost embodies Beth's grip on Rio in the story, and the way it builds and builds and releases only to build and build again is really delicious, affecting writing.
- - - -
“Com’n her and her lady friends were shakin’”
“Shakin’ about the lemon on the fuckin’ granite, sure.”
They chuckled as the car rolled on, the suburbs slipping away with the sun.
“Think they’ll pay up?”
There was a groan as Rio shifted in his seat, flexing his fingers along the dash.
“Neighborhood like this? Everybody knows someone who knows someone with a trust fund.”
Mick’s lighter flickered, followed by long, rasping inhale. “And a boat.”
Smoke swirled lazily through the open window up into the purple sky.
“And a boat.” Echoed Rio.
Drivin' through the Suburbs by gangfriend / @00gangfriend00 5k words. Teen+. Mick + Rio friendship, Beth x Rio. Canon compliant.
It takes a lot to make me laugh out loud in a fic, but this one does multiple times. It's just insanely fun, and captures Rio and Mick at their most boyish in a way I find utterly charming. It's really, really delightful.
- - - -
She’s got her crimes wrapped up and categorized in folders with labels and post-its. Wrapped up in gift paper with a big blue bow on it. And she’ll probably ask Turner do you want freshly baked cookies or some shit when they go raiding her kitchen.
Rio should really get it under control. Her, get her under control.
She opens the door and slumps onto the front seat, her eyes set angrily on him. Nineteen voicemails and she’s still got things to say: he sees it in the twitch of her hand, the restless, frustrated pattern. Any minute now she’s going to settle on new words to voice her complaints like he’s here to listen. Like he’s got the time— like he cares. Like he’d better.
It’s a Work Thing by isoldewas >1k words. Mature. Beth x Rio. 2.12 canon divergent.
I'm a bit of a sucker for a good canon divergent fic, and this one pivots the car break up in 2.12 in a smutty way that just works unfairly well. It's such a great little fic that really settles well into Rio's headspace during the messiness of s2, and I love it.
- - - -
They settle in their respective places and Rio takes the opportunity to give Elizabeth the same once over that asshole did. Her ass really does look great in those pants and she could fill out any shirt. Her eyes linger over him too, tracing his skin, the bar tattoos peeking out from under his t-shirt that she’s seen a million times but she devours at every opportunity. Then her eyes meet his and she gives him that small, crooked lil’ smile.
He’s not one for religion, but every so often he takes his mom to Spanish mass. All the viejitos and pious Catholic types think he’s a banger but his ma’s still excited to show him off. He sits with her in the pew and when the priest asks for the congregation to give thanks to God, he says a prayer for the riches that have come to him, the health and brilliance of his son, the vitality of the other little ones in his life now, and Elizabeth. And when he thinks of her in those moments, he sees her in his mind’s eye with this exact look on her face.
A Bit of a Stretch by @septiembrre 5k words. Teen+. Beth x Rio. Established relationship.
Beth and Rio do a yoga class together! There’s such a lived-in feel to this fic that it feels impossible not to fall a bit in love with it – their relationship is explored in a way that feels true to who the characters are, while sanding down the edges to create something that feels sweet in the way they usually aren’t in canon. It's a great fic, but more than that, it really just works in a way that's a lot more complicated than it looks, and it’s all the more charming for it.
- - - -
He’s happy to keep kissing her like this. To savour it. Realises she’s undone the last few buttons of his shirt at some point as she shoves it down his shoulders. Doesn’t have a second to think about his ugly scars pressed to her skin. Can just feel her little hot palms snaking up his back and grippin’ him tight. Refusing to let any light between them as they kiss for what feels like hours.
He realises these are the lips he’s been tasting. Searching for in other women when his night’s got too unbearably quiet, hunting for an echo of the thing he really wanted. Comin’ up short every damn time. Sweet and soft and lethal. Unique to her.
It’s longing in a way he’s never felt. This is the taste of it.
As Good as This by @riosnecktattoo 5k words. Explicit. Beth x Rio. 4.05 canon divergence.
Okay, I know I just said how much I loved canon divergence fics, but it bears repeating – I love canon divergence fics, haha. This is such a great alternate take on how the wire scene in 4.05 goes down, and it simmers with tension from the opening line. The way it escalates as Rio navigates this newest betrayal works really well too, and it results in a pretty sexy and surprisingly emotional sequence. Magic!
- - - -
“Do we have a deal?” She asks.
When he turns to look at her she’s smiling, and that’s when he realizes he’s absolutely fucked. He’d just fucked himself out of almost a quarter of a million dollars. He lets his eyes drop down her body, licks his lips and nods.
“I choose the place,” he says and turns on his side to face her. “You owe me half - with interest,” he says and slides a hand into her hair. She’s damp, the sweat slowly cooling.
“That’s not what - “ she opens her mouth to protest and he takes that opportunity to slide his mouth across hers and lick into her mouth.
Long Nights by zetuslapetus / @querenaxx 2k words. Explicit. Beth x Rio. S3 canon divergence.
Rio and Beth bone while negotiating a deal! What's not to love, haha. This has such a fun checks and balances feel to it which just makes me want to peel my skin off, it's so good. It's exactly the way I like my Beth and Rio - hot and snarky and constantly trying to get a leg over the other, literally and figuratively. It's the best.
- - - -
He should go out and find someone to fuck. Maybe text one of his hookups. See if Jen’s working. He has options.
He knows what he should do.
But it turns out fucking other people is a worse hell than the one they create when they’re together.
And now that he’s yielded to this wicked ecstasy, he knows he’ll do anything to keep sitting in the fire with her.
To Sit in Hell with You by @daydreamstew 2k words. Beth x Rio. Explicit. s4 canon divergence.
Canon-divergent from 4.06 – Beth and Rio keep hooking up after the time at his grandma’s place. It’s fun and sexy while also keeping the complicated push-pull and lack of communication at the heart of them. Deeelightful.

“Does it make it easier?” Maddie asks him once they’re spent, maybe emboldened because he has already brought her into their bed. Which may be unfair, because Lee had been in their bed from the beginning.
“What?” He seems lost in his thoughts, his arm behind his head. In a few minutes he’ll get up and get ready to get back to the factory. Like always, she’ll be looking for her keys so she won’t be late for work.
“Getting it out of your system before you see her.”
Rio glances at her. “I don’t always see you when I see her.”
It’s so rare for him to explicitly mention this woman, however tenuously, and Maddie waits for more. Rio’s gotten like this about a few women in his life but it doesn’t happen often.
Sure am Using You by aniara 2k words. Explicit. Rio x OC, Rio x Beth.
It's not for everyone, but I absolutely love fics that feature characters with other people in ways that tell you something about the characters' feelings about somebody else. In this fic, Rio's fucking one of his childhood friends, but it's all about Beth really, and the way both Rio and the OC negotiate that is really compelling writing, and feels so in character for Rio. I really love it.
- - - -
Rio dreams of her that night, again. It’s irritatingly pedestrian – Elizabeth’s kissing him deep and then, ah, suddenly his gun’s in her hand and she shoots him, with a double encore. It’s always variations on the same futile theme. When he wakes it’s not that he’s freaked, unaware of reality or his whereabouts. But he’s been soaked in anger for so long. He can’t think straight, not on her. It’s honestly terrifying. Cos stubbornly keeping his head on right is – that’s him. Maybe her entire raison d’etre is destroying every single one of his attributes though.
He ain’t sure if his subconscious is desperately screaming that he’s made the wrong move, letting her live. Or if it’s the total opposite. Could be fucking neither. It’s not – it’s not getting any easier. And that main reason for not biting the bullet, that he’d be mad as hell for being mad as hell at himself over killing her, it's not smelling any less idiotic.
Climbing up the Walls by s_t_c_s / @sothischickshe 8k words. Explicit. Beth x Rio. S3 canon divergence.
Another canon divergence from 2.13 and an interpretation of how s3 could've gone, and another one I really love. There's a throughline of chaotic frustration to this fic that rings true to Rio's character for me, and the way that that reverberates through his moments not just with Beth, but alone and with other women, feels really textured and interesting and real. It's pretty great.

Silverflint Truth or dare
Silverflint Canon era, one (or both) accidently calling the other one pet names
Silverflint (+sort of Flinthamilton) Silver asking Flint, while having sex, to tell him about his sex with Thomas (in detail). I think canon era, placed after 310, would be better but it's up to writer.

One day he has to accompany Flint on a business trip to let's say Bahamas?! and there was a booking mistake - there were booked into a honeymoon suite. And since there is a summer festival there is no chance to get another room. Things happen!
Silverflint, Silverflinthamilton 7 years after their escape from Savannah plantation, James and Thomas are living a quiet, happily ever after life - money and jewels they grabbed on their way out were enough for decades of comfortable life which they now had. And almost everything was perfect-they had each other, got to know each other again,accepted each others' demons and learned to handle each others' nightmares and guilt. Flint long ago told Thomas about Silver and with time forgave, but didn't forget him. After all Flint's heart was broken on Skeleton Island and both him and Thomas knew deep inside he still loved John Silver. They talked about Silver-about the feelings Flint used to hide, about the pain and forgiveness and about love that didn't had a happy ending. It was fine, discussing it all together, sharing these stories-past is in the past and that chapter of Flint's life will remain there. Until one day the past refused to remain in the past and John Silver showed up on their doorstep, injured, delirious and looking for his own forgiveness.
Silverflint/Silverflinthamilton Post canon S4: John Silver is no longer Long John Silver. Exiled from Madi and Maroon Island, he brought himself to somewhere nearby Savannah and disappeared. James Flint and Thomas Hamilton escaped from plantation, bought house and live happily together. 3 years later, Flint saw John Silver at tavern. But John Silver doesn't remember him. Turns out he lost memories due sickness and always forget who he was everyday. Will Flint able bring John Silver's memory back and reconcile?
Silverflint, Silverflinthamilton Modern AU silverflint - Flint and Thomas are a happily married couple and Silver and Flint are bffs with a long history. But the thing is-Silver has been crushing on Flint forever and his pining is epic. He is also sure he is clever and no one figured it out. Only both Thomas and Flint did a while ago and Flint is determined to make Silver confess his feelings. He has turned Silver's life into a living hell with his seduction techniques and jeans so tight they should be illegal in public. Meanwhile Thomas is having too much fun watching them two and making his own plans for their shared future together.
Silverflint John Silver is 30 year old virgin and has never had a relationship and sex. Max and Jack decided to set him up with date at local bar. John Silver's first date was James Flint, a loner and his last partner left him for indifference opinion. James Flint is working as cattle farmer (?) and their date went well. Except.. they are not rushing to have sex and taking time to know each other. There were lot confusion and miscommunication between them on next date. Will John Silver able to lose his virgin and will James Flint make first step to ask John Silver as his boyfriend? First kiss, first touch, sexting, first sex and hot smut.

Silverflint Two idiots with mutual pining and obliviousness. Others try to help but it may not go so well at first.
Silverflint canon era. After a really great haul the Walrus has a rum soaked celebration. The next morning Silver and Flint wake up together in the captain's bed with no clothes.
Silverflinthamilton After reunion. Silver finally appears on their doorstep, later they are talking over their dinner but something goes wrong and Silver and Flint start to fight. Thomas is trying to calm and separate them but Flint accidentally punches him instead of Silver.
Silverflint Persuasion AU. An unmarried Silver encounters his former love Captain James Flint after he returns from battle.
Silverflint competing reality cooking show contestants
Silverflint Silver and Flint have met before many years ago and even spent the night together. Now for reasons (there was a lot of rum that night, they're both different people, memory loss etc.) neither of them remember. One of them has a nagging feeling when Silver joins the Walrus crew but one of them remembers nothing yet.
Silverflint One of them needs to be restrained and dominated to truly let go. Writer's choice who and what era.
Silverflint Silver threatens to shave his head
Silverflint/Silverflinthamilton (probably?)Post canon S4 and Treasure Island: Captain Flint's ghost decided to haunt John Silver for revenge. However, Long John Silver was disappeared to nowhere. Fast forward for this year, Long John Silver's great great grandson, John Silver bought property in Bristol. One day, he was haunted by ghost Captain Flint. Ghost Captain Flint wants revenge but ended up falling in love sweet, poor John Silver's due social anxiety. Will they make up for loss done by his late ancestor? Happy ending for everyone. All depend on writer's idea!
Silverflint AU Canon divergence during season 4. Madi really dies in episode 7; Thomas Hamilton is not found in Savannah. The war goes on, bolstered by an enraged Silver, fueled by the Urca gold. During this time of violence and grief, Flint and Silver become all each other has left in the world.
Silverflint Sometimes one of them will keep the other on the edge for as long as he can stand. There is lots and lots of begging and pleading. There could be fingering and rimming and toys...
Silverflinthamilton Reunion fic where John finds James and Thomas in their home x nbr of years after s4, then realises he knows Thomas because they spent a month living together in Paris some years before Thomas met James and having a blast. John recognises Thomas who doesn't recognise him until John shows a tattoo/mark placed somewhere there is no misunderstanding of why he recognises that part of him (because he's seen john naked). Develops into threesome or twosome where the last person joins in later.
Silverflint tentacles
SilverFlint / MadiSilverFlintHamilton Post s4 Thomas and Flint are living together after escaping the plantation. Madi and Silver who are still together come to visit them. SilverFlint have palpable sexual/romantic tension and Madi and Thomas conspire to push them together. Afterwards when the tension is resolved Silver and Flint realize it was planned by their significant others all along and invite them into bed and the four of them have some fun
Silverflint When drunk, Flint behaves like Toby Stephens’ Prince John in BBC Robin Hood.
Silverflint (hamilton) Annihilation Au
Silverflint Canon-compliant up til 4.06. When the Spanish attacks Nassau, Silver is the one who is thought to be dead and later revealed to have been captured (instead of Madi). Rogers tries to use to Silver to cause a rift between Madi and Flint, thinking that Madi will trade the treasure for Silver's life while Flint will not. To everyone's surprise, the opposite happens. Madi refuses to trade the treasure while Flint will stop at nothing to get Silver back.
Silverflint firefighter au: silver keeps accidentally triggering the fire alarm while trying to improve his cooking (an actual fire may or may not be involved) and flint is the ridiculously attractive firefighter who has to deal with it
Silverflint vigilante au: they're both vigilantes watching over the same area and have a bit of a rivalry going on until they have to team up to take down a new threat.
Silverflint modern au (amnesia): silver wakes up with amnesia and forgets that he was dating flint before the accident. as far as he remembers, they can't stand each other, and he doesn't understand why flint shows up at the hospital and seems genuinely worried about him. (roles could be reversed--author's choice).

Thoughts on badboy!Mike and/or stoner!Will ?
(Salient points bolded so you can skim through my ramblings)
I mean we see the seeds of punk in both of them in canon. (I mean the real canon, S1 and S2 only.)
We saw Mike starting to have a rebellious phase in S2 (cursing out a teacher, graffitiing the bathroom stall, etc.). I could absolutely see that rebellious streak strengthening from middle school to high school (and to college depending on when this AU is set). Especially if Karen and Ted weren’t doing too well with their marriage. We see in S1 that Mike’s ideology seems to trend towards pacifism, and he seems like a bit of an idealist. He cares a lot about things being fair or right, and while He Will Fight You if they aren’t, he’s not usually one for actual violence. (See: how he verbally confronted Troy after Troy was laughing at the assembly.)
And, even though it’s not real Stranger Things, we see a little bit of how Mike has responded to trauma in S3. After everything that happened to him since the beginning of S1, in S3 we see Mike start to close himself off. His idealism from S1 has really faded, and we see that he’s a lot more cynical now, and he’s put up a lot of walls. (Acting like he’s “too cool” for whatever’s going on, for example.)
And not to quote my own fic but I’ve thought before about how Mike might very well turn into kind of an anarchist in high school...
-_-_-
Fuck it.
That’s been Mike’s primary mode of decision making in the past year.
Fuck it, fuck everything, fuck the whole world. All those angsty singers were right: society is a garbage fire, the world is broken, nothing is fair, and very few things are right. They should be. They could be. But they aren’t.
His parents mutter about phases and teenage rebellion when they think he can’t hear them over the TV. Well, if realizing that society is bullshit makes him a rebel, then fuck it. He’s a rebel.
Fuck it.
It started about a year ago.
Well, if he’s being honest, it started several years ago. The whole great mess of it. If he’s really really honest with himself - which he’d rather not be, most of the time, not about this - it started with the Upside Down. When the world turned on its head and his best friend was gone, and then dead, and then miraculously alive again, and there were monsters, and other worlds, and a girl that could do magic, and secret government agencies, and secrets upon secrets upon secrets. He was twelve years old, and the world was not the safe, stable, rules-abiding place he had always been told. And that’s where the seed was planted.
And then he was thirteen, increasingly sullen as he glared at the floor and listened to teachers and parents tell him all about how “This isn’t like you,” and “You’re smarter than this,” and, “You’ve got to shape up your act, or you’ll be facing the consequences.”
First it was graffitiing the bathroom stall, cussing out a teacher, feeling a strange flutter somewhere deep in his diaphragm when he grabbed Will’s hand that day in the Byers’ paper-strewn house.
Then he was fourteen, and it was all happening again, and he was trying so hard to do what he was supposed to do. To shape up his act. He straightened his hair, he doted on his girlfriend, he rolled his eyes at things that weren’t cool.
And then fifteen. And he hated it. All of it. He let his hair grow out shaggy and messy and curlier than ever, and those seeds planted years before came to life. He was a rebel again, and this time he refused to back down. “Shaping up” hadn’t worked, so fuck it.
It was the only thing that kept him sane as his life both fell apart thread by thread and, at the same time, settled into a suffocating, crushing normality. His sister left for college - left him alone. His parents fought more, and then less, and less was worse. Less fighting meant days-long icy silences, tension that even Holly picked up on. Bad news in the papers, on TV, in hearsay. And Mike took to burying himself in fiction to get away from it all. He carried a Sharpie marker with him and started scrawling his favorite controversial quotes in places they’d be seen. He argued with everyone, about everything. He broke up with his girlfriend, after two years of slowly realizing that romance wasn’t right for them. He got detention frequently - and then less frequently, as he learned to be stealthy. He snuck out. He went to parties with friends he had made in Drama. He ranted and vented to his best friend, and they frequently ended up on the roof outside his bedroom window, watching the stars as they talked about life, the universe, and everything. He briefly considered getting a piercing or tattoo. He bought a big, square, three-year calendar and meticulously counted down the exact number of days until graduation.
-_-_-
... all that to say, I think Mike could very well end up turning to a kind of “bad boy” persona to help cope with things, even if this is an Upside-Down-less AU and all he’s coping with is more normal teenage stuff like his parents and realizing how awful the world can be. He’s got a rebellious streak anyway, we’ve seen that he tends to put up walls and put up this kind of Cool and Distant act to cope with things, and he cares so much about fairness and justice (and the world is so unjust) that I could very easily see him eventually Fully Rebelling and lashing out at the world.
As for Will, well, I feel like the fandom has kind of collectively agreed that Will would have a punk phase. (Just me?) Partly because there’s a lot of overlap with growing up gay in the 80s. (You know - you have to have a certain mindset of “fuck you, fuck society, fuck everything, I am who I am and anyone who thinks that’s not okay can suck it.”) And (not to get on a soapbox real quick but) punk isn’t about mohawks and spiky jackets, it’s about questioning structures of power and authority and being yourself despite society telling you not to.
I don’t have as good of an analysis for Will, and honestly @the-angry-pixie has explained this better than I could because she’s given it more thought, but can I see Will in college going kind of art-punk? I absolutely can.
As far as specifically stoner!Will when it comes to weed smoking, I don’t have as much to say. Despite living in The Weed State 🙃 (god I want to move lmao), I never really got into that, so I don’t have much to say that would actually be accurate or interesting,
However, if we’re talking stoner!Will as far as the attitude more than the actual smoking? Like, 70s-throwback “nothing matters, okay? Just chill out a little bit and paint or something, the universe is more complex than we could ever imagine and our tiny human arguments shouldn’t matter that much.” Tapestries hung up on bedroom walls, staying up late listening to music and thinking about Life, The Universe, and Everything, deep conversations with friends, making art, etc. etc...
I could be convinced.
So badboy!Mike and stoner/art-punk!Will? Good concept. And I could see this happening either post-canon or in an AU where the UD didn’t happen or where byeler doesn’t meet until college or something.

Media hyperfixation: Boueibu! 📌, ✨, 🎶, 💕, 🏳️🌈 and 💎
Yessssss
📌 how did you find your hyperfixation?
Tumblr. Someone I originally followed for... Sailor Moon I think? posted an edit with the SC in flower crowns. Shortly after there was a promo post of sorts (you know those “omg watch this and here’s why” lists). It looked hilarious, and I watched the first two episodes on a whim. I knew I would love it within five minutes.
✨ what draws you towards your hyperfixation? what is interesting about it?
I fell in love with the humor. Aside from that, I love how the the monsters and their complexes or problems that lead to them being turned into monsters set a theme for the episode, and the DC’s idle talks are always around the same subject. And especially in s1 all the loveless felt so real! Comically exaggerated of course, but deep down they dealt with realistic issues. I saw myself in many. And I love how, at the end of the day, the most important form of love that Boueibu promotes is self love! Some of Yumoto’s speeches seem to contradict each other, and they do, because the show acknowledges that there is no catch-all answer to the question of happiness and self-fulfillment! Everyone has different needs! It’s neat!! Man, do I have a lot of thoughts about s1 loveless.
🎶 if your hyperfixation has songs/an ost, what is your favorite song from it?
Full of bangers and bops, here’s a non-comprehensive list: I refuse to rank the op-ed’s. Never Know and Why So Cool feed my emo soul. Narukoryu-kabu de Moukeru Houteishiki (god I hope I got that right) has swing. Brother Lover Rapper is RAP. IT’S BOUEIBU AND IT’S RAP. WHAT MORE COULD I WISH FOR? LITERALLY?? IT COMBINES TWO OF MY PASSIONS. Sync a Think is an ioryuu anthem. Does your ship have an official anthem?? I could make my brother listen to Idols no Shinjitsu and he would like it blissfully unaware that it’s from an anime OST (has anyone figured out what the lyrics are yet..?)
💕 tell us about one of your favorite characters and why you like them!
I’ve rambled about Ibushi enough tolast for a life time but who cares! Who am I if not THE Ibushi stan? You enabled this.
I still don’t know WHY I fell for him so bad but doesn’t matter. First anime character I called my husband. Unfailingly loyal, polite and patient but not without snark, passive-aggressive at times, knows when to pull punches and when not to, great backstory for his molluscophobia, deep velvety voice, tall dark and handsome, best oneliners, observant (contrary to what a popular fandom meme would have you believe). Criminally underused. You know there’s something amiss when a character SHINES in the side canons but could be completely removed from the main canon with minimal consequences to the story.
🏳🌈 do you have any headcanons (lgbt, race, neuro, etc) that are important to you?
At this point I can’t NOT see Yumoto as autistic. He has a “unique way of thinking”, he has special interests (animals), the cuddling is a sensory thing (he needs some kind of physical contact a lot), he stims (remember when ioryuu were giving each other the silent treatement and Yumoto, to quote Atsushi, “resorted to repetitive movement” and was so engrossed in it he didn’t even notice right away that Wombat was removed from his arms), he has routines (again, a certain number of cuddles), he minmaxes at school (zeroes in Japanese due to the aforementioned “unique thinking” but can allegedly tell the area of a shape by looking, so clearly he excels at geometry), he has trouble catching some social cues and conventions. That boy is autistic, y’all.
I have my sexuality and gender headcanons as well, but nothing so “important” I wouldn’t be able to adjust different interpretations for fics or whatever. Like my Ryuu is always 100% bisexual babeyyyy but if someone prefers him as gay that’s right-o, I’ve talked about ace Ryuu before, and I can even deal with him being honestly straight (bonus points if Io is still in love with him. One-sided pining train here we GOOOOO). I generally headcanon Io as demisexual, but have written him as gay as well. Is En gay or pan? Why can’t we have both? I’m flexible. But Yumoto is autistic, amen.
💎 are there any fun facts or trivia that you would like to share?
In s2 ep1 the DC talk about hourglasses. Ryuu seems to think saunas often have them, to which Io mentions he has a friend with a Finnish sauna in their home. First of all, this indicates Io has friends outside the Defense Club, which I still cannot believe after four years. Pics or it didn’t happen, Io. Secondly, and this is where I’m actually going with this, Finnish saunas do not have hourglasses in them. Why the hell would they? Not saying you CAN’T or SHOULDN’T but why WOULD you have an hourglass in a sauna?? I’m Finnish. Pretty much every Finnish home has a sauna. So does each swimming hall, usually more than one on both men’s and women’s sides of the showers. My family are sauna enthusiasts even by Finnish standards. I do consider myself an authority on this. I’ve been to, who knows, dozens of saunas in the 24 years I’ve lived on this Earth. Never seen an hourglass in my life. I’ve asked around, neither has anyone else I know. This unimportant throwaway line BOTHERS ME. Sauna is an integral part of Finnish culture. If you had to sum up the entirety of Finland in one word or one concept it would be sauna. You can’t just go around making lies. Sure there are saunas in many other countries and cultures as well and naturally they vary, but what the hell. What the shit and fuck. Look me in the eyes. I’m not joking.
media hyperfixation asks I promise to chill if you send in any more
#anon#asks#about me#'lots of thoughts about s1 loveless' and lots of gripes about s2 loveless lmao#they were much more... idk mundane? trivial?? superficial??? what's a good word#maybe it speaks about the villains as well. the beppu brothers are kind of uuh simple#not stupid definitely but they've got this one-track mind#('and the sc didn't?' ok ok ok yes they did. but i like them more lmao)#but honestly. 'i'm insignificant.' 'my self-worth is tied to other people.' 'i'm excessively self-conscious.'i have no control over my life#vs 'i want to get christmas off'#i know i know i'm oversimplifying#it's not just about having to work on holidays or not getting chocolate on valentine's day or not getting into art school#all of these do cause or stem from deeper issues#but they feel so much more situational than deep-rooted#it's a different perspective and not inherently better or worse. this is a personal preference. but i practically worship s1 loveless#what was the deal with happy kiss... i haven't thought about it as much. i've only seen it once#one dude didn't want summer vacation to end... another one's dad was a compulsive treasure hunter... one was the world's worst small talker#i think i've answered this meme before but whatever. never too much boueibu. and opinions change and wordings change#also i hate to admit it but in the anime ibushi is practically irrelevant#akoya and kinshiro are the characters and he's just there because two antagonists is not enough#and the sauna thing... i know it's not that deep. i know. it's a throwaway line with no significance to anyone else but me#but to me? boy does it have significance#finland mentioned but at what cost...#you can't just say whatever#i am about to start an international conflict. i am dialing japanese prime minister's number as we speak#edit: fixed the 'yesss' i couldn't make it look the way i wanted on desktop#the fuck's up with that

Silverflint, Silverflinthamilton 7 years after their escape from Savannah plantation, James and Thomas are living a quiet, happily ever after life - money and jewels they grabbed on their way out were enough for decades of comfortable life which they now had. And almost everything was perfect-they had each other, got to know each other again,accepted each others’ demons and learned to handle each others’ nightmares and guilt. Flint long ago told Thomas about Silver and with time forgave, but didn’t forget him. After all Flint’s heart was broken on Skeleton Island and both him and Thomas knew deep inside he still loved John Silver. They talked about Silver-about the feelings Flint used to hide, about the pain and forgiveness and about love that didn’t had a happy ending. It was fine, discussing it all together, sharing these stories-past is in the past and that chapter of Flint’s life will remain there. Until one day the past refused to remain in the past and John Silver showed up on their doorstep, injured, delirious and looking for his own forgiveness.
Silverflint/Silverflinthamilton Post canon S4: John Silver is no longer Long John Silver. Exiled from Madi and Maroon Island, he brought himself to somewhere nearby Savannah and disappeared. James Flint and Thomas Hamilton escaped from plantation, bought house and live happily together. 3 years later, Flint saw John Silver at tavern. But John Silver doesn’t remember him. Turns out he lost memories due sickness and always forget who he was everyday. Will Flint able bring John Silver’s memory back and reconcile?
Silverflint, Silverflinthamilton Modern AU silverflint - Flint and Thomas are a happily married couple and Silver and Flint are bffs with a long history. But the thing is-Silver has been crushing on Flint forever and his pining is epic. He is also sure he is clever and no one figured it out. Only both Thomas and Flint did a while ago and Flint is determined to make Silver confess his feelings. He has turned Silver’s life into a living hell with his seduction techniques and jeans so tight they should be illegal in public. Meanwhile Thomas is having too much fun watching them two and making his own plans for their shared future together.
Silverflint John Silver is 30 year old virgin and has never had a relationship and sex. Max and Jack decided to set him up with date at local bar. John Silver’s first date was James Flint, a loner and his last partner left him for indifference opinion. James Flint is working as cattle farmer (?) and their date went well. Except.. they are not rushing to have sex and taking time to know each other. There were lot confusion and miscommunication between them on next date. Will John Silver able to lose his virgin and will James Flint make first step to ask John Silver as his boyfriend? First kiss, first touch, sexting, first sex and hot smut.
