( For all his practicality, his cleverness in getting them in and out of situations, Fiona wonders if Michael ever thinks about the fact that he’s never had his body put on display for the sake of culling information, thumbing ID, whatever. )

Okay. First off, I <3 prisonfic in general. Best of all is prisonfic with characterization and motivation, and backstory and feelings and emotions and at least a nod to reality. Prison in itself isn't sexy, but men saving each other with love totally is. :D
I adored highasakite!Gerard, and Mikey trying desperately to hold everything together. I loved loved loved Bob's self-containment, and his patience with Gerard. Frank and Mikey was so very sweet, especially for starting out so awful (although the awful is my favorite part, just so you know. :) The first time scene? Where Frank realized how awful it must have been for Mikey because no one cared to make it easy for him? HEART. CRACKED. Oh, and Mikey knowing all about the nice guys because they were the ones who got you to trust them and then watched you shatter? OW MY HEART BROKE RIGHT THERE. (although because I am a twisted individual, I couldn't help imagining the details of that situation. whomping is love. :)
So yeah, that series plus dancinbutterfly's You Know What They Do... has inspired the hell out of me, and I wrote almost 1500 words on a new bandom prisonfic tonight. It's got me so jazzed that I'm still up at 3 am.

Trust me when I say you probably cannot shock me with your need for whomping. I think I'm in a rare category when it comes to that.

(Oh, and outside of fic, I saw you're a law student? I graduated in 97, and I'm now a librarian at a law school. If you ever have questions or need help, feel free to come at me. :)

Hugs to you if you would like them.

Pretty much I'm just even worse than I thought I probably would be at law school--and my hopes weren't impressive--and I can't even get myself an internship at this point, so, that bodes well, and all.
