Recs and Reviews
Mature, 28,000+ words, Bookstore AU. This was written for leupagus's 'Damn, Your Fandom Is Good At What You Do' Fest, which resulted in a lot of fun fics, but this was a personal favorite. Please note the warnings, as mermaid wrote a brilliant, very true-to-life depiction of an injured vet in AU!Steve (complete with mobility issues, chronic pain, psychological trauma, and references to combat injuries and death), which may be upsetting to some.
- "He bugs me for wearing a tie. Otherwise we're doing just fine."
- "Well, the tie does make you look out of place." Steve lowers his voice. "But mostly I want to yank it off so I can lick that hollow at the base of your throat. Or maybe suck a bruise into that soft smooth skin, low down on your neck, where it'll be hidden by your collar."
- "Goddamn, Steve," Danny breathes, biting his lip as he looks up at Steve. "You trying to make me forget my plan?"
- "No, no,"Steve says. "I agree with the plan. But didn't you tell me it was important to have things to look forward to?"[1]
A very different take on an Alternate Universe for a Hawaii Five-0 story. Steve isn’t himself as you’ll see when you read. Most favorite characters are featured or mentioned and stay for the duration of the story, which is always awesome~ One of my personal favorites and it touches me deeply! [2]
