A/N: Not that I want to doom myself by saying this aloud, but the truth is that up until this point I'd had all this busted out already. Then with putting a chapter up every week I've caught myself up... So I'm looking at writing and editing each chapter within seven days and, yeah. This is a warning that it might not happen, though I solemnly swear to try my best.

Glory Days
::Ryan Lochte/??, Swim Slash, ("very dirty") R, unbeta'ed

A/N: Because Valentine's Day was Saturday during the Grand Prix and obviously I'm twisted in some deep-seated, fundamental way. And, bathroom smut. Maybe I should make a freakin' tag for all my bathroom smut.

:: The Passing of a King Through the Eyes of a Fool. Pieter van den Hoogenband/ Ian Thorpe, Pieter van den Hoogenband/Michael Phelps, Men's Swimming, pg15. Unbeta'ed.

A/N: This is what came from the prompt of "sappy, sweet and optimistic." Uh. It's not. I'm sorry. Actually, it might be one of the more depressing things I've ever written, though I tried to end it on a high-note? Eheh >.> Clearly I have issues.

A/N2: If you like Ian Thorpe, be warned. I don't exactly paint him in the prettiest light here. I mean, holy crap, have you seen how he's let himself go? Don't tell me that's happy-weight.

A/N3: Okay, maybe it's happy-weight.

Title: Tie My Hands (6/?)
Pair: Phelps/Lochte
Rating: nc17 for the smutty goodness
Summary: Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte? They were the best worst-kept secret of the swimming world. And Michael didn't like it.
A/N: I know that Ryan more or less recently announced his intent to drop the 400 IM. I also know that, according to Brendan Hansen, Ian Crocker's last swim might have been in Beijing (though there has been no confirmation of retirement from Ian himself that I've seen). To both of these allegations, I say: TOO BAD. I'm the coach of this story.

...besides. If my Dragon doesn't get to see Ryan swim the 400 IM she just might cry. I don't want her to cry. She'd get our seats in Indy all salty. Nobody wants that.

:: Michael Phelps/Ryan Lochte. US Men's Swimming. R and a warning for some kinky. Unbeta'ed.

( >.> So I know this isn't Tie My Hands. [Or the unfinished pieces of Santa Baby *coughcough*.] But sometimes people need porn and... uh... Well. Trying to write anything over the holidays was just dumb. And I have a friend getting married Saturday [Lucky me, matron of honor!] so life hasn't exactly been low-key lately. For those of you waiting oh-so-patiently, Tie My Hands Part 5 will be up by next weekend, my solemn promise. And after that they should be pretty consistent. I swear! Not that you have reason to trust me. *spreads the love around and offers random spanking porn as a balm to bitter hearts*)

"Santa Baby"--9 days to Christmas

:: Michael Phelps/Ryan Lochte, US Swimming, R

((...So... excuses... ^_^ An old friend came into town last night and we had to go out. And drink. >.> I mean, we were helping out the economy! *ahem* Sorry this is a day late, heh.))


( Santa Baby, December 17th )

((And again, not all 12 Days will be posted to comms until after Xmas!))

"Santa Baby"--12 days to Christmas

:: Michael Phelps/Ryan Lochte, US Swimming, R

(Author's thoughts are that I'm back to my old ways, one ficlet per day, just for the 12 days until Xmas. They'll all be loosely linked. This is an offical break from Tie My Hands because we all need a holiday, and I needed some sap. Sections will not be posted everyday to comms, but probably later in bulk.)
