Of course the first thing I gotta do when I'm in a new fandom is make a podfic xD even though I should be doing like a million different things right now, not even talking about all my fic wips... Oh well, I couldn't help myself!

10 minute podfic on Ao3, of @halotolerant's Hastings x Poirot ficlet, rated T, friends to lovers, mild h/c, fluff, no warnings apply.

Summary:  ‘Don’t indulge in pleasure,’ was perfectly comprehensible - at fourteen Lan Wangji already knew that that meant no second helping of stew, even if you were still hungry, and definitely no more little cakes, your mother should never have made those for you to try in the first place.

Or Five Times Lan Wangji learnt something about sex

My comments:  Oh. Oh, Lan Wangji, bless yer heart. Taught all your life that 'this kind of thing' was bad and simply... not getting it at all. Mystified. Because it doesn't fit within the boundaries of your rule-defined world.

This is a lovely character study, Lan Wangji butting up against the edges of his world and Wei Wuxian providing all the impetus. In spite of the rating, there's really no sex at all, or even UST. Just a really confused man who is longing for something he can't even define.

(There’s a moment when he sees wwx and nhs fooling around by the river, but don’t worry OTP shippers, this story is thoroughly wangxian, so I didn’t tag that as a relationship.)

Francis: Will he offer me his mouth?

John: Yes

Francis: Will he offer me his teeth?

John: Yes

Francis: Will he offer me his jaws?

John: Yes

Francis: Will he offer me his hunger?

John: Yes

Francis: Again, will he offer me his hunger?

John: Yes!

Francis: And will he starve without me?

John: Yes!

Francis: And does he love me?

John: Yes

Francis: Yes

John: On a cold spring night Would you offer your throat to the brother of the alpha?

Francis: Yes

John: I bet you tell that to all the brothers ...

I got inspired by

“Three Winters, Four Springs” by the lovely and talented halotolerant

and shamlessly ripped of an awesome song:
