    Summary

    In the 90s and early 00s, they were distant neighbors on a long, dirt road out in the middle of vaguely Georgia farmland. Ian and Mickey: two poor, closeted Southern kids with similar financial situations but very different families, harboring secret crushes that felt illegal and that manifested themselves as sharp words, punches, and self-loathing.

    In 2021, Ian, a high school teacher in need of a fresh start, returns to his childhood home after nearly 20 years to find himself once more sharing a lonely dirt road with Mickey, the boy he once knew and the man he's desperate to get to know.

    Summary

    “How long do I have you for?”

    “For the next 43 hours,” Patrick replies, and the feeling of disbelief in David’s gut morphs into desire, into want, accompanied by something he cannot yet name.

    “Then we better make the most of them.”

    Or, this is your places call for Part Three of Favored Nations. Places.

    Summary

    a collection of short ficlets about ian and mickey, originally posted to tumblr

    - - -

    ch. 13: As they stand outside the Alibi, Ian shrinking into his coat like a turtle retreating into its shell, Mickey feels himself waver. Feels his resolve crumble on the spot, because — fuck. Ian looks exposed, vulnerable, heartbroken. That was never the plan. (OR an 11x12 anniversary party fix-it)

    ch. 14: It's been three days of this, and he just wants to be there. But Ian had curled away from his touch for the first time in a long time, so he left. Retreated out to the living room, found their coziest blanket, and grabbed his sketchbook. (OR Ian's low, and Mickey keeps his hands busy.)

    ch. 15: Beautiful, Ian had called him, in the heat of their mingled breath. His hands had moved along soft, smooth skin, and he’d called him beautiful. But maybe it was the wrong word to use. The wrong time. The wrong day. (OR some body image hurt/comfort)
