    Summary

    “Mickey, listen to me.” Lip says. He’s holding up his hands again, surrendering. “You know what kind of family you’re a part of now, right? It’s just us. There’s no one else but us. No one’s in charge, okay? We tried that shit out, look where it got us. But I…I just relapsed, Mick, you got that? I just relapsed and it could happen again, and Ian’s meds could stop working when we least expect them to, and Debbie’s in jail and like it or not – and I don’t like it, for the record – you’re looking pretty fucking stable at the moment.”

    --
    Family dynamics shift after the wedding. Mickey's not sure he's ready. Not sure he even knows what family is.

    Summary

    Retelling of Like Real People Do from the perspective of Ian.

    In hopes of saving for his future, Ian Gallagher works nights on kestrel, an iOS app specializing in paid sex services. The rules there are pretty simple: appeal to your clientbase, build fantasies, and maintain appropriate boundaries. This is the story of how Ian breaks every damn rule and falls in love with Mickey Milkovich.

     

    On hiatus but will be finished in 2022 and currently ends at a non-angsty place.
