I am the satisfied writer of the first fic on AO3 featuring Royal Abbott/Wayne Tillerson from the Weird West series Outer Range.
I received a mixed-media work about Hephaestus, Aphrodite, and Ares, which delightfully subverts the infidelity story usually associated with them. As far as I can tell, it's the first work on AO3 that is written specifically about their relationship. Did I mention I really like rare fandom and ship events?

Summary:
They knew what the other gods thought of them . . . and it mattered little in the end. As long as they had each other, what did they care for the scorn of others?
