So for my last Entourage reccomendation for the month, I saved the absolute best for last. I only found this story recently, and was absolutely blown away both by the scope of it and by the astonishing truth of it. Fourteencandles understands both Vince and Eric so very very well; the characterization in this story is note-perfect. This story is, god. It's like my one true story in this fandom. This is them, this is why I love them, this is why I want all of you people to love them as much as I do. I cannot reccomend this story enough.

Things you should know: it is very long! Be prepared to lose some hours of your life reading it. In fact, earmark a Saturday, make a pot of tea, and sit down in a comfortable location, because you will not want to leave in the middle of it. Also, the Turtle characterization--and yes, I said Turtle, in a Vince/Eric story--is absolutely stunning. I wish the show wrote Turtle as well as this author does.

So if this fawning effusiveness isn't enough to get you going, here's a taste:

The thing between Eric and Vince had rules. Eric liked this. He liked the idea of order being imposed. He’d had rules in every relationship he’d ever been in, from his mother on down. With Vince, the stakes were higher, so the rules were more absolute. Eric didn’t write them down anywhere, but he kept track. Even after things were over, he could have quoted the rules as quick as he could come up with his home address in Queens, the license plate number of the first car he’d ever outright owned, or the first line he’d ever heard Vince say on the big screen.

Rule number one: No one could know.

They figured this out in high school.

If We Were Anybody (Here's Us Together Series)

And that's it for me. There's more Entourage fiction out there! Don't despair! I hope you've enjoyed this fandom and these stories as much as I have.
