Okay, you guys, this was not supposed to be a long fanfic. It was supposed to be two scenes. Five thousand words later I had reached "scene two". I don't know why it took me so many words to get where I was going, but just as an example, in this fanfic I actually put off writing porn at one point in order to write a conversation about capital asset management.

As Junie observed when I mentioned this to her, I am terrible at being a human.

That said, I do get round to the sex eventually. And then there's a lot of it? And it's gloriously messed up. Also, I think this is the darkest Peter I've ever written, and he only says eight sentences in the whole fic.

I hope you enjoy it!

Title: Life Noir

If it makes any difference, I think I'm worse at being a human than you are. :)

(Especially by those criteria.)

Noir is popularly defined as a genre "in which no one is innocent".

Or as James Ellroy once said to an audience at Film Forum, "The moral of all noir is, 'You. Are. Fucked.'"

geeze, I leave you alone for a few days, (busy here being the Queen of Lethargy)and you go around getting LOCKED OUT of places, yelled at undeservedly by Entitled, Inc, having your family get heart attacks, and lord knows what else. No wonder you're playing W games and writing noir. I have to admit these last few entries have cheered me up, a bit, in a perverse kind of way. Look after yourself, kid. <3

Being fair, I wrote the Noir before I went camping :D But it has definitely been a wild few days!
