smallfandombangTitle: poison from the same vine
Author: hexmix (hocus)
Artist: cicadabra
Fandom: Evil West
Characters/Pairings: Jesse/Chester
Rating/Category: NC-17/Slash
Genre: Drama/Action/Erotica
Word Count: 16k
Warnings: canon-typical violence and gore, dysmorphia, period typical attitudes
Summary: Jesse's spent his whole life knowing to expect exactly this moment, having been groomed and molded to slip right into his father's shoes as head of the Rentier Institute. But the Institute is in shambles and Jesse's more sure than ever that he ain't anywhere near cut out for the job. Getting involved with Chester only makes everything worse: his tip-offs may have saved Jesse's skin more than once, but the price isn't something Jesse's sure he wants to keep paying. At least, that's what he's been telling himself.
But it's easy enough to keep giving in when Chester knows the worst thing about him and only responds with that familiar Tick hunger. When a new threat places Chester in greater proximity to the rest of the Institute it becomes harder for Jesse to ignore the shape of what it is between the two of them, as fear of discovery wars with a desire he just can't shake.
