@ StaticExterminator Aww thanks so much for coming to check out my other stuff :) Means a lot. And yeah I actually agree with the rating - didn't realise I'd rated it lower tbh! Changed now :)
Loved your writing so much from the pro griefers story that I HAD to try some of your others. Ad this was aMAZing! The emotion, the... The... "Rawness" as Miz Erie put it... Perfectly done. Te only thing I have to say is that it really should be rated NC-17, yeah? Because you incorporate the emotions and how they feel as they fukkkkk. But really. This was too good. I'm off to read more of your others.
This was amazing! I had to subscribe to and recommend it. (And just to let you know, that's not something I do frequently, as in almost never, but I needed to bookmark this because I know I'll be back to read this time and again!)
I really suck at comments! I never know what to say the few times I leave them. (And I hate leaving one line-er's; they just irratated me. If I'm going to say something, I want to actually give the author something worth reading.)
I love the rawness of this piece! The need Frank has for Gerard, and Gerard's need to just feel anything other than grief. I, personally, am a sadomasochist, so I would have loved to have seen more from the breath play (and maybe a little more rough play altogether, since that was what Gerard was after). But I get that's not everyone's cup of tea to write, and this was wonderfully written as it stands. There was a realness to this piece that made me actually believe this could have happened way back when; I love when that happens!
As for your A/N, I am also a huge fan of all the wives, and I make a point of not using them in my fics most of the time. But I feel like you handled it well; while the taboo-ness of the infidelity may have turned Frank on more, the reader could tell he wasn't completely oblivious to its consequences.
I really enjoyed reading this, and as I said, I will be back to read it again! Miz
