What a mean walk on the metrosexual side! "...because all his cerebral capacity was occupied with Jack and whispering subtext, buttsex, subtext, buttsex ..."

Brillant! Just what I was thinking. I´ll never be able to read/hear subtext without thinking buttsex again, and that´s bad, because in my line of work everything´s about subtext - hehe.

Ennis growled, a slow deep sound of protest with more than a hint of a purr in it. Wow THAT was wild! And the giraffe lashes ...

Cheers, Clara

Hehe. I have a somewhat ambivalent feeling for "subtext" too. :-D Thank you for the cheerful comment, Clara.

Equipment is important and needs to be taken good care of. Luckily I think they're right on top of it. ;-)
Thank you!

Very entertaining--I agree that An orca among tunas is an instant classic!

[gilli_ann]

Happy you liked it, orca and all. Thank you!

So funny and clever - brilliant even.

All the animal metaphors were terrific but I especially liked "the eyes of a snow leopard" and "a falcon amongst geese".

The last line "Ennis pounced" was perfect.

Thank you

Hi Lorna, so glad you liked it! Thank you. It proved a lighthearted and welcome change writing this after "Saga".

Loved it. Sooo funny. And a bit of a walk down memory lane for me. Sort of.

I dated a photographer a-many years ago and one of his pet projects was people's bums. He photographed them with clothes and without. In colour and black and white. Standing, sitting, bending over. etc. There were hundreds of them and he tried so hard to get them into a gallery but nobody would have them. This piece of course reminded me of that time. It was fun.

I wonder what happened to all those butt pics. And I wonder if I'd recognise my own if I saw it again. I'm glad Jack had better luck with his paintings. And he ended up with his guy! I wasn't so lucky.lol!

Really fun fic.

That's uncanny - that you really experienced something so alike to this in RL! Sorry it didn't work out for you both. Thank you for taking the walk down memory lane in good spirits anyhow. :-)
