Summary

He craved being a man, and that was the reason for his strange, disquieting imaginings, his secret thrill to think of himself, head bowed, unveiling layer upon layer of his superior. He wanted only to be close to the prime example of manhood he could merely aspire to be like.

A WW1 watermech AU filled to the brim with yearning, sexual tension, internalized homophobia & the homoerotically charged relationship between a man and his personal servant.
