Summary
Ian smirks as he imagines a bright, neon Pride rainbow arcing over Mickey’s head; an irrepressible flashing, queer beacon, despite the tough man act. He may not have known him long, but he’s sure Mickey would knock his teeth out and curb stomp him if he knew what he was thinking, and he smiles at that.
Mickey and Ian come from opposite sides of the tracks, but strike up an unexpected and deep friendship. When their lives implode however, it’s tested to the limit – while also revealing that things between them are not quite what they seem.
This is a retelling of Definitely Something Special from Ian's POV and assumes knowledge of that fic. If you haven't read it, you should do so before starting this. You should also read it in its entirety (rather than both side-by-side), or else you'll get spoilers. As with the first fic, this contains some dark and heavy moments detailed in the tags. The tone is mostly humorous and a lot is new material, though some scenes and dialogue have to be repeated. If the title seems weird it'll make sense in context.
