[caelumi]

Title: Tie My Hands (6/?)
Pair: Phelps/Lochte
Rating: nc17 for the smutty goodness
Summary: Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte? They were the best worst-kept secret of the swimming world. And Michael didn't like it.
A/N: I know that Ryan more or less recently announced his intent to drop the 400 IM. I also know that, according to Brendan Hansen, Ian

I just want to beat some sense into Michael for being such an incredible dick.
But Aaron and Ian <3 I know I have a problem when I read too much into this:
Aaron shrugged. "Whatever does it. I've been seeing too much of Ian, you know how he is. The man can make monkeys ponder the meaning of life. I thought I'd grown immune, but obviously I was wrong."

[tragycbeauty]

Also (because I have to comment again because I keep remembering things I love) I love the references to Bob Dylan, especially "Get some sleep, you’ll be okay. And hey, if you need me, you can find me in the House of the Risin' Sun.".
I also love Michael's jealousy over Matt Grevers and his hatred of any intimacy, even though it's painful to read.

[caelumi]

I keep telling people, but they don't believe me! It totally still gets worse before it gets better. Don't expect more than that. ^^

And Bob Dylan, well. I owe my Bob Dylan references to Ian anyway. I started listening to him after reading Ian's blog, lol.

And I love Matt Grevers, hehehe. ^______^

[caelumi]

I think they both have their stupid moments, lol. But all will be well in the end, all will be good. ^_^ <3

First and foremost, this is amazing. I'm just wowed at the way you can write from Michael's point-of-view. And it's sad because when it's from Ryan's perspective I feel awful for him, but then from Michael's I almost try to justify it. He's still as ass, but eh. Your writing is very persuasive.

Second! Your Aaron is perfect! Please, please, please do something with his character. Please? :<

Third. Knee biting! Was that anyway connected back to the phone conversation he and Ryan had that one time or just a nice coincidence?

I've written a lot, I'm just going to stop now. :)

[caelumi]

One) Yay! I'm glad to know--seriously glad--that even though MP's an ass, the reader can understand why he's doing it, at least. It's all fear, baby. Scared of love. ^_^

Two) ^_____________^ I'm thinking about it. Any specific pairing you want to see?

Three) I think it was me just, like... recyling. ^^ But we can say that it was MP being conditioned by Ryan. *nodnod* Sexual conditioning.

I think tragycbeauty and I are both on the Aaron/Ian bandwagon, haha. But you know, Aaron's a versatile character...

[caelumi]

I'm still unsure of my Ian. All that making monkies see Zen... totally more easily said than written.

[sexy_cheetah]

Ugh Mike! I finally thought he was going to have an epiphany....

But I loved him getting jealous over Grevers/Ryan. And the porn, gotta love that too!

[caelumi]

Porn's good. I'm all for porn. ^_^

... Is that Obama in a bow?

[sexy_cheetah]

Yes sireee. I definitely made it BEFORE everyone and their mother had a bow icon, but, I love it and am keeping it.

Sorry to echo the other posters, but you're doing such a great job with this fic. I hate Michael for being such a douche, but it's written very well.

He just needs to realize that he and Ryan are meant to be. =)

[caelumi]

He will. It's just going to take some time and heartache, that's all. <3333
