short and sweet. love me some old gay men HOWEVER. the most unnecessary sexual assault scene in the beginning from ethan when he jacked off mike for no reason. and this was before they were even a thing. at that point mike was only there to seek help from ethan for his wounds and ethan went ahead and did it anyway. he acknowledges that it's wrong but it's kind of glossed over by both of them and no consequences are ever shown for it. i am very very sick of finding these nice, short stories that end up tainted by sexual assault. the setup was there for them to become closer in a romantic/sexual sense without the sa, so why resort to such a lazy trope? ugh
