I loved this. I'm so glad you're sharing it. I wasn't sure you'd be able to top the last line of part 4. But this part had so many perfect lines! You wrote the sex so well. It's awkward and sweet and violent tender - what I'd expect from two men for whom violence is a way of life, who can't / don't communicate with each other, and who have such an interesting power dynamic

Thank you very much, I really enjoy getting well thought-out comments like this letting me know what I'm doing right or wrong.
Particularly I agree with what you said about men identifying as "not gay" but still having sex with other men; I guess I picked up on this because I have several friends who are like that, and I think that's how Rorschach would think if faced with a situation like this.

I really don't know what to say... it was both beautiful...and...factual...so innocent...and so obviously not. I was thinking about how I'd write...about such things. How do you say certain things without sounding too professional or something...and at the same time... not too crude to be taken seriously. There is real...raw emotion in the stories needed to be told...but I'm just afraid I won't capture it in the right light. You wrote this chapter wonderfully... Keep up the marvelous work ^^

Thank you very much dear <3. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll do wonderfully! It just takes some building up to, and you need to make sure you detail more than just the sex, and make sure the character's emotions shine through. If you ever need me to beta a story you've written I would be delighted. Just ask!
