    Summary

    1920s AU - Mickey and Ian are in enemy gangs, but what does that matter? Turns out it matters quite a lot.

    Very loosely based around the Peaky Blinders. VERY loosely. As in there are gangs, and it's the same time period. That's it. Do not have to know anything about Peaky Blinders to read

    Summary

    Freshly out of the psych ward, Ian feels like, at 24, he has ruined his life beyond hope of fixing. His family don't trust him; Mickey won't take him back, and he has enough skeletons in his closet to fill a graveyard.

    Having reached the end of his rope, Ian gives up. But instead of dying, Ian finds himself in a liminal space between life and death. Confronted with his old boss and the possibility of trying out the many lives that he could have lived had he made other choices, how does Ian find his way to a life that he can stand to live? When the choices are infinite, the way seems unsure, but Ian will do whatever it takes.

    TW: themes of suicide and drug overdose, mostly in the first chapter only.

    A mutated virus has turned the world on its axis, forcing Mickey into a mandatory quarantine facility. When another resident is exposed, the building goes into a full twelve-week lockdown, but not before dropping Ian Gallagher into Mickey's world as his brand new roommate.

    The two men connect based on survival, unwarranted feelings, and a whole lot of denial—until the truths of their reality come crashing down.
