Godric/Eric | Unrated | Pre-series; spoilers for 2.11
The first time he does it, Eric doesn’t tell Godric. He’s curious and then he’s frightened and then he’s pensive, and then.
Eric says, “I have something to tell you,” but Godric doesn’t look at him, doesn’t move, his fingers still on the boy’s soft cheeks, still on his cold, dead mouth.
Eric says, “Something I think you will like.”
I have such a penchant for Shannon's lyrical style. This particular piece is gorgeous, and for some reason, feels very much more delicate than her usual stuff. Which is strange, considering the themes and pairing, but adds to the beauty of it. It's quiet and subdued, which I think suits Godric's voice very well - no matter that this is in Eric's POV. Eric's adoration to Godric translates amazingly, through the slow build up. I really, really love it. :)

Brad/Nate | 7, 594 wc. | NC-17
Brad and Nate are models. They fall in love.
“Which, that begs a question,” Ray says as they step inside the store. It’s filled with hipsters and overawed tourists who can’t figure out how they wandered in here. Ray starts leafing through the necklaces of beetles caught in resin. “How does Nate feel about all that sex?”
Brad raises his brows. “Don’t follow.”
Ray cuts him a disgusted look. “Oh come on, everybody knows you’re functionally together.”
“I thought we were functionally together?” Brad says, gesturing between the two of them.
Ray rolls his eyes heavenward and heaves another beleaguered sigh. “We are functionally married. Nate is the mistress you buy expensive necklaces for when all I get are fuckin’ whiny ass shitsucking Joanie Mitchell CDs.”
HOT BOYS AS MODELS. Enough said. But also? HOT BOYS IN COMPROMISING SITUATIONS AT A PHOTOSHOOT. I lost count of how many times I squeed while reading this. If nothing else, it was VERY fun imagining Nate in all those outfits. UNF.
I could probably quote some other sexy lines because, hello, ASkars and Stark Brad and Nate as male models. But I am head over heels in love with her Ray. So there.
