Summary: Darth Vader has, at some point, discovered BDSM. When his schedule allows, he's been spending time at a very discreet sex club somewhere in the Outer Rim, where he has his pick of the Empire's starstruck submissives. But even in a risk-aware consensual context, intimacy with a man like Vader can be a perilous undertaking. Grand Moff Tarkin thinks he's up to the challenge.
Reccer's Notes: I am not normally a villain stan, I don't tend to go for dark or supremely messed-up stories about terrible people. But this series is SO GOOD, you guys, I couldn't stop reading even though it wasn't normally my thing. These are both terrible people, who have done and continue to do terrible things. They are both messed up in different ways. And yet, together, there's something almost sweet in the trust and care they show for each other. And it's a compelling picture of intimacy between these two men, and what they see in one another, and how they grow together as a couple.
