not op either but this is masterful. the atmosphere is so palpable - I could feel andrey biting on the inside of his cheek, and the ash in the sky, and the fires in the distance. your descriptions are amazing. the porn is also exquisite, you say a lot with very sparse writing that glosses over details and focuses on a different kind of physicality than what you usually see in straight up porn. this isn't a ship I really considered, to be honest, but it's really perfect here. their dynamic is great. rubin is a dumbass, and andrey is............. andrey. he's andrey, huh. he's dancing through life.
