This is the kind of fic I was hoping someone would write. Not for the specifics of plot, but for the "not about two people" line that is just the perfect summary of the piece. Sex and death are just so raw, and putting them together this way really gives a glimpse of the characters as they are, deep down.

a titanium stare that Claude imagines would send most voters screaming in the direction of the other guy.

Obviously, Claude hasn't met the fans...

It's all about Peter. Little fucker's dead and it's still all about him.

Priceless. Reminded me of the early days of cleolinda's Lost recaps. My keyboard nearly got a cherry vanilla Coke baptism.

That right there? That was you making my weekend :) Thank you!

I'm reading from this (between the lines) that you didn't have a specific pairing in mind when you wanted something in this vein ... ?

LOL! Hee.

*g* I'm having a good couple of weeks for nearly trashing people's computers. My apologies ;)

Thanks for reading and I'm glad you liked!

I'm not sure if it was more that I didn't have a pairing in mind at all, or just didn't know what pairing I did have in mind. I think it's just a direction I wanted to see someone explore with Claude/Nathan after seeing several people start to write the pairing. And as I was composing the comment, I had just remembered having read at least two other stories with different pairings exploring the sexual-bonding-over-third-party-death theme, so I was kind of generalizing. Apparently I like the theme.

I can see that :) Just out of interest, what other fics? Don't worry if you can't remember. It's an interesting theme.

One was a Peter/Isaac in response to Simone's death ( yay, found it!), and the other is actually mine...the semi-infamous Zach/Lyle.

[indyhat]

Thanks ... had read neither of those! Liked 'em both.

[fool_of_ships]

Oh good...I was hoping my memory wasn't improving things without my knowledge.

[indyhat]

No, not at all :)

Man, now I have to start making notes of good fics for the next heroes_slash awards!
