Why this must be read: Tony and Effy's relationship has so many layers to it - whether or not you're including the quasi-canon incest factor - that it's hard to find fic that captures that, while still maintaing the bizarre humor that is inherent in Skins canon. This fic weaves both of those together seamlessly, giving a glimpse at a post-gen 1 casually incestuous relationship between that fits in so well with canon, you'll barely even notice you're not watching it play out onscreen. Also, there's the bonus brilliant Cook characterization.
Their goodbye at the end of summer was not sentimental.
She was on a residual ketamine high. She knew empirically that a version of herself lay on her bed, but she felt certain that she was hovering above, close to the ceiling. From her vantage point there, she watched as Tony entered her bedroom.
"Oi," he said. "I'm gone."
He used his thumb and forefinger to flick her between the eyes and she blinked in response. The sensation of blinking seemed to last for an age and, when she was finally finished, he wasn't there anymore. Hours later, when her two selves reunited, she moved her stuff into his room. Changing the sheets seemed like too much effort, so she curled up in the scent of him and went to sleep.
