You finished it! Praise Jesus, Allah and Buddha. I am melted, seriously: dead. This fic combines two of my favourite things - one of which is rebels/underground/guerilla movements.
This is a beautiful sequel, still giving little hints as to how this arrangement came about, and how Nathan has dealt with his new role with Peter and in the group (and I love the very different yet essentially similar moods of the two fics). And of course my head exploded with the wonderful contrast between the intimate, sensuous sweetness of the build-up, and then this thrown in:
Some days, Peter was in a hard and unsubtle mood, and all the contact he could give was hard and painful, blows from fists or whips.
Gah. Yes. So, so hot. And still, Peter's affection and appreciation for Nathan is tangible, all the way through. The gentle reminder to look at him, all the small cues, and Nathan sort of instinctively melting against him - such sweetness. Also perfect - the powerful logic of Nathan finding comfort and security by pushing himself through

This is so hot and well crafted! I like that you focus so much of the fic on the psychology of Nathan now -- how being "owned" by Peter calms him and gives him a sense of meaning. I really love the stronger, fiercer, yet still vulnerable Peter that you hint at from Nathan's perspective, and of course, I'm just a gigantic sucker for Peter as any kind of Dom. I thought it was a really interesting, sweet twist to have Peter ask for Nathan to play out their old pattern by their new rules. A great test of who Nathan is now, as well as being incredibly hot, and just what Peter craved!
Aw! Thanks! I like playing with the expected top/bottom dynamics, and I particularly dislike the general notion that anyone who is putting a penis in an orifice is automatically the "dominant" partner, so, :)
And yes, Dom!Peter is awesome fun. I think he often wants to be more in control. Usually, when I write him being dominant, I have him directly angry and frustrated, so I wanted to see if I could write him that way without that, too.
As for Nathan... well, anyone who has seen him with Angela should notice that he's not as in charge as people think (although since season two he's been getting slightly better at sticking to his guns around her, but... only in fairly superficial ways. I love that relationship.) Nathan would be so much better off if he could just switch his allegiance entirely over to Peter instead of her...
Oh, I remember that kink fic and how I surprised I was that you made this unusual dynamic work. The same is true for this follow up.
I love how you on the one hand turned the usual dynamic so upside down and yet maintained some elements of it. Like refocusing Nathan's ambitious streak on pleasing Peter or Peter's intense, sappy love which was thrillingly undercut by his new found cruelty and dangerous unpredictability. And I'm in awe how you managed to make a D/s fic so weirdly, intensely romantic.
Fantastically done. Oh, and the last couple of paragraphs? Completely killed my brain. Guh.
Forgive the short review; I'm trying to read this and get ready for work LOL Yassssssssssssssssssssss! To this! Oh my! WON-DER-FUL. Yes Nathan you ARE good; you're great, you're excellent! The Best! This was so sexy; so hot. I love Peter in control and Nathan bound and OBEDIENT. Yasssss! Thanks for writing and sharing. This was absolutely wonderful.
