Summary
Jack set off for Signal the day before, just in case. Broke down when he stopped for gas. Didn’t even turn it off, and that damn engine idled itself to death. He and a coupla truckers got it going again, gave him ample opportunity to break down ‘bout an hour outside a Signal. Took a snooze on the shoulder, figured he could hitch if he needed to. Route 26 was busy enough. But salvation came once again in the form of a family asking for directions, and he putted the rest of the way to Aguirre’s just to break down in the damn parking lot.
Novelization of Brokeback mountain from Jack's POV. Strong focus on Jack falling for Ennis, how Jack cares for Ennis, and how he tries to help Ennis open up and truly be himself. Represented metaphorically because Jack's got a colorful way of thinking.
This is a companion fic to to be warm.

Summary
There’s a ball of ice in his belly. Always been there, but some days it’s bigger‘n harder‘n colder than others. The first time it grew so big that it choked him was back when he was nine, and his daddy was laughing at a man in a ditch, holding Ennis by the neck so he couldn’t look away.
A kind-of novelization of Brokeback Mountain from Ennis' point of view. Strong focus on Ennis's anxiety and his feelings of lust and love, represented metaphorically because that boy is too repressed for anything else.

Summary
They’re bound to each other, that's what Maurice says. Not like husband-and-wife, with the unhappy facade of holy matrimony, but better, bound by choice, like equals, by love.
