[fic] "emotional, sexual, necromantically charged bender"

[felinejumper]

Read Gideon the Ninth last night & have read fully half of the available fics (27 as of last count), decided that my contribution as the 28th fic on AO3 would be 1k words of Gideon Nav and Harrowhark Nonagesimus getting off and nothing else.

No canon knowledge really necessary, no major spoilers.

Summary:

Fighting is just like fucking, Gideon of the Ninth thinks, and blesses every magazine of impractically-armored Cohort captains for setting that association up early and proper. Or — and here she twists her hand into Harrow's overgrown hair, pulls it down sharply as Harrow yelps — fucking Harrow is just like fighting.

Some good old-fashioned explicit smut, tending towards PWP; set nebulously post-pool talk.
