    Incredible story of the depression motorcycle road trip. Plays fast and loose with Jack's disability, but the rest is so good you'll overlook it gladly. Also, weaponised poetry.

    Jack's asexual. It doesn't stop him having particular needs.
    Shoutout to shadeofthetrees for idea-bouncing, tense-wrangling, and being there.

    Summary

    It’s the spring of ‘97 when Michael Robinavitch is dragged into a gay bar for the very first time.

    When he meets Jack Abbot there, the two of them are on the cusp of radically different futures: Robby is about to begin his residency, and Jack is leaving for the army. They know better than to get attached - know the timing is wrong, the goodbye inevitable - but something tender takes root anyway. Through every deployment, Jack thinks of Robby more than he ought to; through every failed relationship, Robby wonders about what might've been.

    Years later, when their paths cross again at PTMC, the past resurfaces — and though they’re older, more jaded, and scarred in different ways, they find themselves pulled towards everything they left unfinished.

    Summary

    Darnell nodded, glancing over Robby like he was trying to place him in the hierarchy of important to ignorable and it could go either way. "What's this?"

    "MSF FNG," Jack shot back. Whatever that meant, he sounded amused.

    Darnell scoffed and looked to Robby, expression going decidedly unimpressed. "Oh, yeah? You here to find yourself? Have an adventure? Do something hard?" he asked, each question more mocking than the last.

    And there was that question again, like it was haunting Robby. He stifled his instinct to bite back and kept it simple: "I'm here to help."

    My favourite of the (many) Alethia fics for this pairing. Thoroughly researched and full of yearning.

    So you are having a bdsm self discovery moment while not sexually active. Have this story like a fine wine pairing.
