A/N: Well,
I suppose it was heading towards this eventually.
That's
right: character development. Maybe it's not blatant but I couldn't
avoid
it either. This also goes much further into the kink side of things so
fair warning here, this may not be to everyone's tastes. It also gets
much
more serious than what I've previously written, but I don't suppose
that's
a surprise for anyone who knows me. I can do a comedic one-shot but
once
it turns into a series, serious tends to sneak itself right on in
there.
Thanks to Darkamber for the beta; all remaining mistakes are mine.
This
is a sequel to Lessons and Color
Schemes.
Pairing(s):
Autolycus/Strife
Warnings: NC-17, blood
play.
Disclaimers: Repeat after me: These characters are the property
of
Renaissance/Universal
whom we all worship for their foresight in creating shows with such
incredibly
slashy men. No money is being made here because we are but lowly
slashers
who grovel at the feet of the people who actually wrote the shows --
even
if we
are sometimes better writers. We intend no infringement
for
it is well known that the God of Copyright is above even Zeus himself
and
thus we are all humbled before it and do beg its indulgence as we fold,
spindle, mutilate and otherwise bend the boys over the nearest flat
surfaces.

Summary: Strife
wasn't exaggerating his skill and Autolycus wasn't sure if that
frightened
him more or if it...excited him?
