TW fic recs

[rm]

These are both filthy and hot, but I'm actually bothering to rec them because of how they hit me emotionally.

Theosis by ceefax_the_sane.
An AU in which Ianto is a monk and Jack is researching Abaddon for reasons unknown. Hit me in a very strange personal place because of my own flirtations with the ascetic. Silent meals, communal work and an odd humor about is one of those things that's been a part of my life, albeit not in a religious context (the fact that we were once staying at a monastery, aside). This spoke to me in the stately part of my nature I will never be able to explain to you.

This is mindblowingly hot, but where it wins is for the praise and the aftercare. Sure, I want to come that hard, but mostly I want to be that spoiled.

Thanks so much for the rec! I'm so pleased you liked it.

And I am more pleased with the title every time I reread it (the fic, I mean) because it really did capture what I loved about it. And good titles are hard to come by.

*is pleased with the good fic showing up in fandom as of late*

I haven't read anything by you about the ascetic part of your life, that I am aware of, other than following the sword, perhaps, but I think I can grok it a little.
If I intrude too much, your pardon.

Nah, it's fine. Some of it's related to Guitar Craft, some of it's just what I call the family madness (dad writes poetry in the voice of Jesus; mentally ill aunt _talks_ to Jesus; dead cousin joined a cult, etc.). I don't really talk about it because it's just -- what's to write about silence and devotion, really.

Your involuntary relations, with respect, seem to flounder about with it, where you swim all the way out.
(I never commented on Gatticca, but until I read that post I was under the impression that I was the only person who ever watched that movie. NO!)
