Have you ever read a story that was so good it made you angry? That owned you so completely you almost resented it? I have read 2 that fit that description, and Ultio by mac214 and 22blue was one. I can’t even describe what this story does to me. I find myself having downtime and somehow my fingers are clicking on this story. EVERY TIME. I have literally read this story about 19 times. Yes, it is that good, and yes, I am that obsessed with it.
A part of me wanted to believe that this magic could only be created in a collab between these two. Maybe they just feed off each other and make one another better. That part was proven wrong as soon as I found Things That Go Bump in the Night. I read this story in one night. I stayed up till 4 am reading, and then I couldn’t sleep because I thought I was going to be chocked by a ghost. Even though i’m not blonde.
And then there is the smut.
Mac is the perfect example of how smut SHOULD be used. To compliment a plot. Smut should not be the main course with a side of plot. Instead smut should be like the gravy at Thanksgiving. Essential in a non-essential way. Confused about how that is possible? READ ULTIO OR THINGS THAT GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT! Here are the goods:

And in case you didn’t know: Mac owns a special place in my heart for being fuckawesome AND a PTB author :) You make us look good Mac :)
