YAY!!!! This pairing is practically canon to me, thanks to you, and this was such a hot and poignant continuation of the original. I adore your gruff Marcus and his need to let go and let someone else take control. He's the perfect foil to Percy, and there's such a lovely sense of trust and comfort between them in this fic, despite (or maybe because of) the odds they face. *happy sigh* And, as always, your kink and dirty talk is just nnnnngh, the latter even more so considering who's doing the talking. Thank you so much for writing this!! It was a real treat to see it pop up on my flist. <3
