Title: もっと大事に君を抱かせて [Let me sleep with you more carefully (terrible translation, I know, but "let me ravish you more" doesn't really cut it either)] Author: たっきー [takki] Summary: デリヘルボーイ（本番あり）米×客英のパラレルです [An AU where Alfred is a prostitute and Arthur is his customer.] Warnings: R-18 rating, AU, other pairings (Alfred/OCs), mentions of sexual harassment in second story Status: WIP Reason: While I usually recommend stories because the writing is top-notch and/or the story is riveting... this series of shorts is not one of those stories. The prose isn't something to write home about (although it does have its humorous moments and cute fluffy moments) and prostitute AUs are a dime a dozen in both J-fen and W-fen, but this one stands out to me because there is no angsty back-story as to why Alfred is a prostitute. In fact, he's just a normal college student who needed a part time job one day and realized he could make some good money in the call girl business (or in his case, call-boy business: he exclusively caters to male clients who prefer to bottom); throughout the story, he treats his occupation strictly as a business and nothing more or less. Arthur requests his services one night but after it's clear that Arthur has never bottomed before, Alfred refuses to do the deed and instead strikes up a friendship with Arthur, and their subsequent "sessions" turn out to be just talking and eating scones together. By the end of the second story it's clear that the two are starting to develop feelings for each other (Arthur being more obvious and aware of his feelings than Alfred, of course) so it'll be interesting to see if the both of them maintain the current nonchalance towards Al's occupation or not.
