    Summary

    Ever since she’d been small, Hermione’s reward for good marks had been a rampage through a bookshop, so the day she tore open her O.W.L.s results and triumphantly brandished the eleven Outstandings, her beaming mother said, “We’ll go to Foyles tomorrow,” without any discussion required.

    Summary

    “Well, kid,” John says quietly. “What are we going to do now?” Like he actually doesn’t know the answer. Like he doesn’t care. Like he wants Jim to make the decision for him. Like he wants Jim to shoot him. To kill him. To rip him bloody and gorge on the pain he inflicts in return for brutally shredding Jim’s fragile barely formed life.

    Jim clutches the shotgun with sweaty palms, grimy fingers catching on the hot metal, itching for the trigger.

    “I don’t know,” he coughs the words out around a tight ball in his throat.

    ———

    At the end of the movie, Jim makes a different choice.

    Summary

    “Do I have your attention?”

    Jasper thinks about that moment a lot, more so these days. The truth is that Guy had his attention before then, from moment one. The pup with his cup, outside a place he didn’t belong, doing work he shouldn’t be doing, roped into a world vastly beyond his knowledge and understanding. Some would say Guy was damned from that moment on. Jasper prefers to blame it on the Talamasca, Helen roping this poor boy into the mire.

    Or perhaps Guy was doomed at birth, and if that were the case, then so was Jasper. It’s befitting cruelty, that it should take a century for Jasper to play catchup, so their fates could properly intertwine.

    Summary

    It’s ridiculous, Guy keeps thinking. Dinner date, with some rich guy, and he isn’t expected to whore. Four hundred dollars is burning a hole in his pocket. There’s going to be four hundred more.

    Guy wants to laugh: he wouldn’t pay himself $800. What kind of man is going to be on the other side of this door?

    --

    So, for better or for worse, I promise you: this is not actually a rentboy!AU.
