AUGH! If I wasn't about to get on a plane to Vividcon I would totally pull a segment from "know what you're thinking.". Placeholder!

Oh Hellfire.

Hellfire is my baby. My first Justified fic and, until recently, arguably by best and most favorite one.

Okay, here we go!

“You okay, Raylan?” Boyd called.

“I’m not going back there,” Raylan replied loudly through the door after a moment, his voice containing a shade of the fear Boyd had heard at the firebreak.

“What?” Boyd straightened, not sure how that answered his question. He ducked his head into the room and glimpsed Raylan stark naked, sitting pathetically underneath the spray. He didn’t bother feeling embarrassed, it was nothing he hadn’t seen before when they were younger. “What are you talking about, you’re not going back?”

I wrote this fic ridiculously out of order after the first scene which was the only one I had planned. After that, I was kind of adrift in well, what the hell else can happen? so I did some research **cough cough**wikipedia**cough cough** on fever inducers and super high fevers and delirium was one of the things that came up ( ... )

When they stepped out of that mine after six hours of being holed up in the dark, their daddies had been waiting for them. Family was always called immediately when there was a collapse. After coming out of that pitch black hellhole, Raylan had stared at Arlo as if he’d been looking at the Devil’s own face. He’d squeezed Boyd’s hand harder than he had when the lamps had gone out, but only for a moment before they walked their separate ways, as they were expected to ( ... )

Boyd closed his eyes and let out a slow breath before answering carefully, trying to keep the regret from his voice. “I don’t think I can, Raylan. I’m sorry. It’s too late for me…it’s always been too late.” He got up and took a long pull from his glass. Boyd saw some confusion had come back into Raylan’s eyes and he’d put a hand to his forehead. “Come out from under there,” Boyd said. “Dry yourself off and we’ll get you to bed, all right?”

Also, caregiver!Boyd is the best and it makes me super happy that Raylan just listens to him.

Raylan did as he was directed, easy as you please, and didn’t say anything more for a while. But Boyd wondered if they wouldn’t be going back to those dark, terrible hours very soon, riding Mags’ Hellfire all the way.BAM! Hellfire metaphor, cuz it’s the title and you know, the name of the thing... yeah. I felt so smart ( ... )
