Mikey. Michael Mann. Mike. Just. Come here. Can we talk for a second about why all the Miami Vice promo pics are like this. I know you love slipping a little homoeroticism into your crime so like. Just whisper in my ear if this was the message. It's fine, I'll keep it a secret. I won't tell anyone that Sonny and Rico were in love, I promise. I won't invite people to join my Miami Vice discord server so we can talk about them being in love or anything or write fanfiction or nothin' like that. Or draw fanart. So you can just tell me, Mr. Mann, it's fine. I'll be so cool about it. It can be our secret.

It was the hottest night that summer, you were melting in the heat of your hotel room when you finally decided to go to the pool, it was night and you would probably be the only one there, and it's wasn't like you had any company to call, since you had decided to travel alone.
You heard some rumors as you walked down the hallway towards the pool, apparently some rock band was staying at the same hotel as you, but you didn't care much, until you got to the pool area and were paralyzed by what you saw, four guys slumped on sun loungers around the pool, countless bottles of whiskey on the floor, and one last guy in the pool, who had an incredibly lit cigarette between his lips. You thought about just turning around and going back to the room, but it was too late, now they were all staring at you, you tried to cover your body with your towel, and felt your cheeks burn with embarrassment.
- You guys are scaring the poor girl you fuckers. - The guy in the pool said, and you thought you recognized his voice from somewhere, but it was only when he brushed his long, curly hair away from his face that you realized who they were, the band people were talking about in the hallway was GUNS N FUCKING ROSES.
- I-I'm sorry I didn't mean to bother you, I swear I'm not a crazy fan. - You spoke too fast. - I mean, I'm a fan actually, but I didn't know you guys were here.
They laughed, and Axl passed you a bottle of whiskey, as if it were the most normal thing in the world, you couldn't refuse, and maybe the drink would take away some of your shyness since Slash, from the pool, hadn't taken his eyes off you since you arrived.
- What's your name? - Slash asked you.
- Y/n. - You said, trying to seem calm, when in reality you were completely in love with him, he had always been your favorite member of the band, and you had never imagined meeting him like this.
- Great, Y/n, now would you mind lighting my cigarette for me? - He said as drops of water ran down his hair and wet his angelic face.
Somewhere in your body, you felt yourself getting wet too, why did he have to be so hot? And why did he have to look deep into your eyes while you lit the cigarette on his lips?
- Is it cold? - You asked about the pool water.
- No, it's actually quite hot. - Slash said, smiling at his pun.
You put one foot in the water and were thinking about joining Slash in the pool when you heard nervous footsteps.
- Come on Axl, don't be mad! - Izzy said but it was too late, the redhead just turned around and said "you can all suck my dick".
As soon as the vocalist left, the rest of the boys left too, each in a different direction, leaving you and Slash alone.
- So... He really is hot-headed, huh? - You said, looking at Slash, now without hiding your desire to grab him right there.
- He has his reasons. - He said, then he placed his big hand on your thigh and your whole body heated up.
All you could think about was how many times you had imagined those hands, touching you exactly the same way he played his guitar. Slash noticed how you rolled your eyes just at the touch of his hand, and realized that you wanted the same thing as him. He flicked his cigarette butt away from the pool and now concentrated on untying the side ties of your bikini. You looked around apprehensively, even though it was dark in the pool, just a few meters away from you, guests were passing by, entering and leaving the hotel.
You put your hand in his hair as he began to kiss the inside of your thighs, your whole body shivered, and you noticed that Slash was already hard, as he constantly touched his crotch under the water, so you decided to help him massaging his cock with your feet while he brought his lips closer and closer to your pussy, he kissed your clit through the fabric of your bikini, before lowering it completely. You lost your mind when his soft, wet lips finally touched your pussy, your body leaned back and your fingers tugged at the strands of his hair, his tongue knew exactly what to do, he ate you like he was desperate for it, sucking every inch of you, drowning his face between your legs, you controlled your moans but Slash didn't seem to care, he murmured and moaned breathlessly while you massaged his cock still over his shorts underwater. You knew you were about to cum when Slash stuck a finger inside you and started finger fucking you while still sucking you with his eyes closed, there was no time to warn him, you came right in his mouth, and he gave you a satisfied smile before jumping out of the pool.
- See that? - He pointed to the bulge in his crotch. You could almost see the veins of his dick showing through his shorts, he wasn't wearing any underwear. - We need to sort this out. What's your room?

Cory (@mostlysignssomeportents) in his latest (fascinating) linkdump posted a link to the above--which is Old'aVista, a search engine of what's left of the old internet, and my heart just sort of stopped with nostalgia. It didn't take me long to find the below, which guys--you and you and you were there. Between KS Nic's pages--
--and like, the Sentinel Slash links page below--that was most of the whole fannish world, and I saw so many names I saw of people I still know and who are STILL MUTUALS, I throw my arms around you!
Great pages on The Sentinel fandom.
I was reading the OTP page on Fanlore.org because I got curious about the origin of the concept and... Of course. No surprise here :)
When I see those "Fujos/fangirls only care about m/m, dudeslash, BL and ignore women" -takes it feels completely alien to me and seems like a total misunderstanding of Slash fanculture.
Someone clearly hasn't witnessed the intense lesbo pining between female(*) Naruto and Sasuke cosplayers who LARP their fave ship at a local con.
Earth-shatteringly fierce homoerotism between slash fiction fans is the corner stone of shipping culture. Always has been.
