FIC: Backwash, Part I

[mysid]

Here's a fic I wrote based on one of my very favorite books. You'll enjoy it much more if you've read The Charioteer, but you might want to give it a try either way. You just need to know that Rev. Gareth Straike's stepson, Laurie Odell (Laurence to Straike) is living with a former schoolmate, Ralph Lanyon. What Straike doesn't know is that

Ohhhhhhhhhhh... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh... nice!

I've never read any Charioteer fic. And honestly, I didn't really want to. It's such a beautiful book (and I am more than a little in love with the characters) I was afraid to read fic from it. But I trust you, so I figured I would give it a go. And really I am glad I did. There is so much tension at the end of that book, the personal relationships are all so dangerous.

Reading this really makes me *want* to see what they're up to, how they deal with this... Now I am all excited for the next bit. I can't wait to see how you envision the boys three years on.

And the phrase man's man is one of the best things ever.

Thanks. This has made me smile. A lot.

Glad you decided to trust me and give this fic a chance. I hope Part II lives up to your expectations.
