  Summary

  Ronald Spiers’s relationship with Carwood Lipton was entirely professional. Like the well oiled machine that he was, Ron knew the distance he should maintain between him and his subordinate. He knew he should maintain that professionalism no matter how Lipton had looked at him in the church. No matter how the soft, warm glow of candles lit his face in an orange light, casting the smallest shadow where the raised scar tissue protruded from the rest of his cheek, how it caught his deep brown eyes and made them softer, made him look like he was staring at Ron with anything besides returned professionalism. Because it was the light. It had to be.

  you must understand it's very necessary that spiers gets dicked down on v-e day

  Summary

  Russell Polek drove himself to the starting point without much of a plan in mind. But when a jittery, socially awkward, unpredictable guy catches his attention, he has no better idea than to see where a friendship with him will take them over the next few days.

  Work and chapter titles are from "Dracula From Houston" - Butthole Surfers (give it a listen)

  Summary

  All Gary Barkovitch did, day in and day out at the Freeport haunted apple orchard, was try to bait Collie into swinging on him. And Collie refused to give Gary what he wanted.

  So why the fuck had he found himself pinned to a locker with his tongue down Gary's throat.
