Why this must be read: I have tried and tried to get my recs down to one a day for the month, but I cannot. I have been brutal with myself and I've cut them down to 32, but I just cannot loose another one and it's fics like this that are why.

Mark and Eduardo have post-deposition hate-sex. Or something. Eduardo is feeling the pressure to, uh, perform...

It's when Eduardo takes up yoga so that he can stretch out the kinks in his body, and learn to bend his body in new ways to satisfy Mark, that he thinks this is too much. Exercising in reaction to and in preparation for sex is more than Eduardo is used to. Eduardo is a good Jewish boy with shares in one of the world's most profitable companies. He visits his mother once every two months and he visits Mark's mother every time he's in town. He never forgets birthdays, anniversaries, or to water his plants. Eduardo doesn't do sexercise.

And no matter what Mark and his yoga instructor think, he's never going to be that flexible. He's just not.


Mark puts Eduardo to shame, and that's the crux of it, really. Mark wants it fast, hard, and good, and Eduardo can't keep up. Eduardo is only one man. He can't keep on hitting home runs. He can't be Mark's one stop spokesperson for all things queer. It's too much pressure to handle.

And that makes me so happy.

Hi. I had never read Social Network fic until the last week or so, after you started rec'ing them here. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I AM ADDICTED. I LOVE IT ALL SOOOOO MUCH!

You made a convert out of me by the end of the 2nd fic I read. :) So keep the recs coming. I love every one of them!
