[FIC] Biting Your Own Neck, Reese/Fusco, 2/2

[livenudebigfoot]

His phone buzzes to life for a moment on the bar in front of him, and somehow, before he even glances at the screen, he already knows who it is. This flood of relief and anger washes over him as he reads the text.

It’s pretty straightforward. Hotel. Address. Room number. Now.

He knows the hotel; it’s a pretty nice place, compared to the hotels he

Oh wow, this is amazing and I think I love you *_*

I've been a big Fusco fan since early on, so when I saw Reese/Fusco I just HAD to click (even though I'm at my parents' house, ha!). Totally worth it. I love that Reese's motives in this are so mysterious, it's nothing I would have imagined for him but it feels spot on. But of course Fusco's the star, and he's got a great Fusco voice in this, the poor man, how he's so used to being owned but it takes on a different meaning when it's Reese. It's totally not the show's territory but it fits so beautifully, and I'm not even usually into D/s, but my favorite parts were Reese putting the collar on. It's just...perfect. Guh. And also:

“Yeah, I trust you. Just don’t make a big deal out of it, OK?”

Reese grins like a psycho and knocks Fusco’s skull into the headboard. They’re OK.

Favorite line <3

Did you pull the title from Mumford and Sons btw? +100

Anyway I don't mean to gush all over you but mad props to your talent. I hope you plan on sticking around in this fandom <3

*flails* I know you! You're on tumblr! Your intense scruti\y of Finch's wardrobe is really amusing! Hi!

Yeah, I've been a fan since around Fusco tried to get Reese killed, because apparently that's what it takes to endear me to a character. He's absurdly fun to write, too.

And, yeah, the title is pulled from Little Lion Man. I'm really, really bad about titles, so I usually end up slapping some song lyrics up there and calling it a night. In this case, it was really really easy, because my beta made me a fanmix for the fic to encourage me to work faster.

Don't be sorry about gushing! I thrive on it. Thanks for your kind words and glad you liked!

Woo, tumblperson! What's your tumblr if you don't mind me asking?

I love Little Lion Man, I think I have three different versions saved on my mp3 player already. Would you consider sharing your fanmix? I'm really interested to know what else is on it ;)

[livenudebigfoot]

My tumblr is also livenudebigfoot. I'm trying to create a cohesive fandom identity for the first time in...ever.

Little Lion Man is one of my most played songs on iTunes ever, which is impressive since it's sharing space with stuff that I've had since I was in high school. LOVE IT.

Songs on the mix (in no particular order) include:

Guns and Horses, by Ellie Goulding
Hybrid, by Elsiane
Bloodstream, by Stateless
A Wolf At The Door (It Girl. Rag Doll), by Radiohead
Little Lion Man, by Mumford & Sons
If I Had A Heart, by Fever Ray (I figured the show was basically requesting it)
Spun Sugar, by Beth Waters
Glycerine, by Bush
Dickhead, by Kate Nash
I Wanna Be Your Dog, by The Stooges

Honorary songs that neither I nor my beta had mp3s of include:

Salt Skin, by Ellie Goulding
Dogboy vs. Monsters, by Flipiron

I've never actually posted a fanmix before, so I don't have the relevant accounts with filehosting sites set up to make it happen just now, but I'll probably post it for realsies at some point.

Oh hey, Guns and Horses is totally on my own PoI fanmix. I've got Salt Skin if you want it. Totally going to look up the rest, thanks for the recs!

[livenudebigfoot]

(and then a million years later, I replied)

Given that Guns and Horses has been independently selected as a POI song by you, me, AND my beta, I figure it's just meant to be.

And I would LOVE Salt Skin, if that offer's still open.
