    Summary

    They'd met in a bar, years ago. Piano keys were alluring to Jake so long as it was an attractive person sat on the bench, and Bradley delivered the sort of amusement which could only be found in young men who hadn't yet discovered the world could be intentionally cruel.

    Hangman is Dagger 2. How he got there, and the aftermath.

    Summary

    Trying to give parts of yourself to someone else was an unfamiliar and uncomfortable feeling, for Bradley. He didn’t tend to open up to anyone, at least not unless under duress, but Jake had a way of prying him open. Or maybe Jake was the duress.

    Summary

    Bradley sighed. “It’d just be nice if he was nice once in a while, that’s all I’m saying.”

    “Gotta say, this is a hundred times worse than your horny era,” Nat said, and Bradley stabbed a pointer finger at her.

    “There was no horny era,” he said. “And—and I’m not hung up on him. He’s just—”

    “‘Aggravating,’” Nat said, yanking the word out of his mouth. “I’ve heard it before. And you definitely are hung up on him. Are, have been, probably always will be. Maybe that’s the real reason his name’s Hang-man. Stringing you along without even realizing he’s doing it.”

    Summary

    The thing about Bradley Bradshaw – seriously, what kind of sadist gives their kid a name like that – is that he’s good, he’s really good, but he could be better and that just pisses Jake off. What can he say, he’s a judgy kind of guy, he gets it from his mother. Put that together with the dumb moustache, the sad puppy eyes, the way Bradley reacts to every single jab Jake tosses his way, and, well – was he expecting Jake to be capable of leaving him in peace?

    Probably not.
