Illicit Alliance - Act II - Part 2
Added 2021-10-01 08:22:01 +0000 UTCAs usual this goes from banter to serious to banter to tomfoolery right back to serious.
Please let me know what you think!
This includes Part 1, which I made some edits to. Not too long yet so it might be worth reading again.

How you make me go from giddy to completely destroyed in a few lines of dialogue is just. . . GAH. I’ll never get tired of Grayson and Luther. Like, ever. I’d die to know what’s going on in Luther’s mind right now. I think the sheer ability to talk to 2 people who know his secret and don’t care must be so refreshing for him. I hope he feels that, and isn’t worried about them turning on him :(

2021-10-01 12:51:18 +0000 UTCThis entire story is probably my favorite of yours for that reason. As fun as it would be for many of your readers (me included) to have... Luthson? Grayther? - I am really, really pleased to see their relationship taken in this direction instead, and how organic and normal it feels.

I always feel like I have to walk on eggshells around my straight friends who know that I'm gay, and the sheer degree of casualness between Luther & Grayson is so, so, so important to have a depiction of, even inside the fandom because I feel like that's just a type of relationship that doesn't get explored at all. Having that example is really important.

2021-10-01 12:43:53 +0000 UTCI really want to say just how incredibly refreshing and significant it is for me to have this depiction of a straight man who is so thoroughly unbothered by his friend's homosexuality to the point that he can playfully flirt & play "gay chicken" like that.

2021-10-01 12:41:07 +0000 UTCI really feel for Luther at the end. He has a real bad legacy with wh.. paid lovers. This is a deeply caring and passionate man. He literally wears his heart on his sleeve. No matter how noble his intentions he just cannot enter in to a brief transaction without his heart - or life - being in danger.

2021-10-01 09:14:45 +0000 UTCI always knew Luther would be able to take Grayson in a bout of grappling. His past experience of groping...er... wrestling with the other men before he became an officer has trained him too well.
