Why this must be read: It’s such a classic for this fandom. Written in late June, which is a lifetime ago for Kradam, but it still feels fresh. You do need to know that the author wrote it after reading Adam’s Rolling Stone interview, where he talks about how cute and perfect Kris is, but then says of course “Kris is 100% straight, and married.”

Adam was in the middle of answering a serious interview question about gay rights when his phone buzzed. It was the special tone that meant it was one of the people who could always get through: there were about eight of them, no, probably ten now?

Anyway, a glance showed him it was Kris, so he took a quick peak between sentences -- there were a couple of people on that list he wouldn't risk it with, Neil and Brad being most prominent, because you never knew whether they were going to send you a picture of, like, some eleven inch cock or a chicken with two heads.

But anyway, it was Kris, so, safe to glance. And besides, Adam's stomach was still a little torn up over how the whole Rolling Stone thing had come out, because while it wasn't like they'd made anything up out of whole cloth, they'd sure spun the whole Kris thing to sound like something it really wasn't. Mainly. So if Kris was calling him or texting him, he was going to answer right away.

Only maybe Kris wasn't going to stay on the "safe to answer during serious interviews" list, because Adam inhaled his water and had a three minute coughing fit when he read the words in the text window. The coughing spell was probably actually for the best, given that otherwise he'd have to explain why he stopped talking in the middle of a word and couldn't think what came next for a good ten minutes.

Because right there on his phone, innocent and yet not, kind of like Kris, actually: Kinsey sayz no such thing 100%. letz go w/99.
