Why this must be read: This is an amazing story that follows Howie and Brian's relationship, from the beginning and many years ahead. It's fluffy without being suffocating, and occasionally it's absolutely tragic. A lot of ups and downs, which only makes the read that much better. What's unique about this story is that there's really not any huge relationship drama going on. No will-they-won't-they business. They face a lot of hard stuff, but they're secure in their relationship. I really love that about it. It's a read that will leave you feeling completely content. Not many stories can do that.
"I'd really appreciate if you could avoid using the images of Lou and sex toys within the same conversation, let alone sentence, okay?"
Howie snickered. "He's gonna get some of our money. Maybe a lot. Possibly the rights to all images created previous to the split. The rights to our songs, so that we can't make any decisions regarding their release to other groups. Honestly, though, I don't care. None of that's you. He can't take us apart. We can always start over. I think we've proven ourselves sufficiently good at struggling."
"If nothing else."
Howie threw a dirty shirt at Brian's face. "Speak for yourself."
Brian peeled the shirt off of him and chucked it back at Howie. "Do me a favor babe, okay? Join me in being a little bitter here."
"I can't."
"Howie, for crying out loud, he's been robbing you, lying to you-"
"He nearly caused the man I love to die," Howie snarled, causing Brian to back up an inch, startled. Howie took several deep breaths. "I can't talk about this because once I start I won't stop. Not until I've taken him apart, piece by piece, with my own hands and hung his intestines from the rafters of Transcon's HQ as a warning to all who would dare try and follow where he has gone. Do you understand?"
Brian nodded slowly. "Yeah, I'm with." He drew his knees up on top of the washer and hugged them to himself. "Look, I don't usually find the whole Neanderthal thing very appealing, but, um. Feral's kind of good on you."
