Summary
“Why the hell are you here, Ian?”
Mickey’s tone is defeated, and his shoulders barely hold their shape. He’s tired. Exhausted, really. Ian can see that in every line of his body, every curve of his face.
There’s so much that Ian wants to say to him, so much he wants to scream across this phone line connecting them, but he can’t. His head is a mess, in more ways than one, and no matter how fast he tries to parse through his tidal wave of emotions, he can’t figure them out.
He broke up with Mickey. Right?
Only now, he can’t really remember why.
“I don’t know,” Ian says honestly, and hopes it’s enough.
(It’s not.)

Summary
It’s like a knife to the gut, seeing in real time how Mickey doesn’t trust him as much.
“I’m glad someone was there for you.” Is all Ian has as he tries to stop his eyes from watering.
“Yeah, you sure as hell weren’t.” He spits out, and it’s angry and mean and yeah, fuck, it’s true, isn’t it? Mickey was in here all fucking alone, while Ian didn’t even bother to visit. Spent all his time missing Mickey, but trying to forget he ever existed. At the time, it seemed the best thing for both of them. Allowing a clean break, letting them both move on.
Turns out that ‘moving on’ is a little different when one person is locked up.
Ian swallows, wiping at a tear before it has time to fall. “I know.”
“See, this is fucking why I didn’t want to talk about this.” Mickey mutters, shuffling closer in an attempt to console and help.
///
Ian and Mickey may be back together in prison, but they still have a lot to talk about so that the past won't keep hurting them.

Summary
He honestly doesn’t know which is more concerning. Ian hearing his dead mother just outside their cell door, or Ian thinking he’s actually trapped in here with his shithead brother instead of his boyfriend.
When Mickey doesn’t say anything, Ian turns back to the door and starts banging on it again, faster and louder than before. He doesn’t stop. The guards start to take notice.
“Jesus Christ,” Mickey mumbles, finally getting his brain to work again.

Summary
"Tell me about your years as an assassin."
"That's a lot to tell," Gallagher says. "You're going to have to be more specific."
"Tell me about Milkovich."
The change in Gallagher's expression is immediate. His smile vanishes and his eyes go cold. Then he takes a deep breath, and laughs. "Oh, you want to know about Mickey."
----
In which Ian is a cold-blooded serial killer with a soft spot for a certain South Side asshole.
