Bruise Pristine by Wax Jism
Fandom: HARD CORE LOGO
Pairing: Joe/Billy
Genre: Slash

Why this must be read:
One of the genre of HCL stories set before the movie, in the early days of the band, this is another piece that pulls no punches. This is a first time story, but it's not exactly hearts and flowers--we're talking Joe and Billy here, after all. And Wax Jism gets them, gets their dynamic, so that you can see them, years before the reunion tour, before things went so wrong--and yet everything that's going to go wrong is already there, waiting.
Billy has to wonder about himself: wonder why he hasn't left - why he's still spending his nights in these rat circus motels, drinking piss like this, taking Joe's bullshit. Jesus, who's he trying to convince? Himself? He knows, of course he knows. When things are shitty, they're pretty fucking shitty, but when it's good, when Joe relaxes his asshole side, let's things slide for once - magic. The music's magic. Magic makes a lot of shit worth it in the end.
