Minimalist C&R
Zane after a fight … maybe a little Miami UC vibe.
And lastly, a roadtrip with Zanewinder.
Zane + Sidewinder © Part & Parcel, @abiroux
He took Zane’s hand, pulling himself closer until their bodies just barely touched in the bubbling water. […] Ty rested his arms on Zane’s shoulders and kissed him soundly. The warmth that had never dissipated began to churn inside him, love and desire warring for his attention. He groaned and delved his tongue between Zane’s lips, seeking something more. Zane pulled him close as they kissed, responding to Ty’s fervor with calm, consuming focus.
Ty smiled against his lips and finally forced himself to pull away. Zane’s face was shadowed, but Ty knew every feature by heart. The laugh lines that mingled with frown lines, the curve from his broken nose, the hints of gray feathered at his temples. His warm brown eyes that could go hard as obsidian in a blink.
He slid his hand down the side of Zane’s face. “Marry me,” he whispered.
Zane grinned, biting his tongue as he narrowed his eyes like he was considering it. Then he shook his head once. “No, thank you.”
Ty snorted. “So polite this time.”

Magnus rushes up the stairs, fearing the worst: the explosion he saw from the street must have completely destroyed their apartment. And his husband and their son were inside in that very moment! If they are dead…
“Alexander!” Magnus yells as he barges in through the entrance door hanging askew on its hinges. “Max! Alec!”

#quote from Marthe Troly-Curtin’s 1912 book “Phrynette Married” http://ebks.to/1pHDgps
After another long silence, Zane gave a quiet sigh. “Becky died this time of year,” Zane said quietly. “Weather’s about the same. Fancy graveyard.” He shrugged.
“Who is Becky?” Ty asked in exasperation.
Zane kept his eyes focused out the window. “My wife.”
Ty stared at him for a long moment, eyes drifting down to the wedding ring Zane still wore but they’d never talked about, then he looked away without commenting. He pressed his lips together tightly as they rode in silence. “I’m sorry,” he finally offered.
Nodding slowly, Zane finally said, “Thanks.” It was almost inaudible.

Okay wait I got it.
So Ty is a shit Dom, really. He’s too hard, too cold, too aggressive for Zane’s type of sub. As a boyfriend he toes the line of a good and bad boyfriend. He’s secretive and emotionally manipulative. Zane isn’t sure if it’s all intentional but he bears the brute of it all.
People start to take notice.
Suddenly it isn’t just Zane wilting under ‘the look’, the singularly most disappointed look ever cut his way that tears him down to the point that even standing on his own is never a thought, Kelly and Nick see it too. The former is quiet in his defense of his friend. Keeping his head down while maneuvering into the space between Ty and Zane; letting Nick offer his presence as a comforting reassurance.
It’s Nick who suggests to Zane that maybe he and Ty should take some time apart. It’s Nick who reminds him the just because he’s a sub doesn’t mean he’s to take such abuse. And it’s that word abuse that had Zane pulling away because that’s exactly what he signed up for, right? He’s supposed to be beat down and taken apart viciously and left on his own for awhile afterwards. He’s supposed to be confused on something and then punished for messing up an order, right?
That’s what a D/s relationship is supposed to be like, right?
Cut & Run by Abigail Roux and Madeleine Urban
Nick Bateman as Ty Grady & Joe Manganiello as Zane Garrett
and he won’t tell you that he loves you, but he loves you.
And you feel like you’ve done something terrible, like robbed a liquor store, or swallowed pills, or shoveled yourself a grave in the dirt, and you’re tired. You’re in a car with a beautiful boy, and you’re trying not to tell him that you love him, and you’re trying to choke down the feeling, and you’re trembling, but he reaches over and he touches you, like a prayer for which no words exist, and you feel your heart taking root in your body, like you’ve discovered something you didn’t even have a name for.
“Ty.” Zane’s even, soothing tones finally broke on the short gasp of his name. “I love you and I’m scared I’ll lose you. Please don’t leave me alone in the dark.” ― Abigail Roux, Divide & Conquer
Zane Garret totally lost some of his hearing during Crash&Burn. There are at least two times in P&P where it is mentioned that Zane couldn’t hear while standing/sitting in close proximity of SW, and Abi doesn’t do that kind of stuff by accident.
This gives me the feels bc now I have a personal head cannon of Z keeping it from Ty and Ty finding out anyway and FREAKING out. Ugh my boys. I just want to smoosh their faces.

“if i’d been there, i might have been able to do something. but i wasn’t, and i lost them.” “and if you’d been there,” ty said softly, “i would have lost you.”
books read in 2016;; cut & run series
I have used science to prove that Ty is the heart of the Cut & Run novels :-)
As requested a follow up to ‘Oh fuck, oh fuck’ part 2 of ‘Goddamn Hero’, based on the angst prompt “I’m right here. I’m not going anywhere”

It had been 7 hours since they started trying to wake Zane up, 420 minutes since they’d started to reduce the sedation medication he was on, 25,200 seconds and still no sign that his husband was going to open his eyes.
Ty was sick with worry.
He knew it wouldn’t happen instantly, he’d been warned as much but he had expected to see something before now, especially after what had happened earlier.
