Summary
This is my version of the evening post-finale of Season 5, when Duncan shows Jimmy his 'mood board.'
“And am here tae tell you, Jimmy, you’re allowed tae want things that don’ make sense.”
Unrepentant sentimentality, talkin pish, heartfelt smut.

Summary
This is the story of three adults to whom life hasn't always been kind, figuring out how to be kind, open, and sexy with each other.
My partner asked for a story in which Duncan and Jimmy bring a woman home together. I gave it waaay too much thought. It's Willow. I love her. I love her on the show and especially in the books, so I wove in her book life to the degree that it didn't contradict the show, then added a lil extra life.
It's set about a year after the end of season 5 and "A Fixed Point in the World". Our OTP have been happily cohabiting since then.
