Why this must be read:

It’s smut, and really hot smut, but it also says a lot about Dan. It perfectly captures the insecurities that haunt Dan in canon; with Laurie, with his loneliness, with who he’s become without Nite Owl. It’s nice to see an exploration of these things in relation to Laurie’s re-entrance into Dan’s life. And the evocative writing and very hot sex scene certainly don’t hurt :)

Sitting across the table from her, he'd felt pinned, a bug on a specimen board, carefully flayed for her scrutiny. Torture, every minute of it; the wanting and the knowing-he-couldn't, while she chatted on, not oblivious so much as unconcerned. On the terrace outside, talking about that weirdo with the pain fetish - almost too close for comfort. Because all this - the anonymous nightly violence in the name of the greater good - was just a stand-in for their own darker desires which, given free reign, might uncomfortably mirror those of their own victims.
