Battered Boar: Cycle (Part 3 of 6)
Free to be a lonesome, boring tradie. stability was a struggle for me, but i found it somehow. it took me years to adjust to being a working man and in that time i learned a lot about myself.
The Plumber
I'd never cared before what a tradie thought of how i lived, but this time i didn't want to feel embarrassed. why? "can i take a look?" his hand brushed my arm. i stiffened, lost in thought again.
I Like to Watch...Ninth Glance
It wasn't worth it, even if that tradie wolf two months ago who came to fix the downpipe had been smoking hot... "so, how about it?" i coughed up the vodka, thoughts of tradie wolf forgotten. this was not going well.

Hell has River Views - New Brother Chapter VIII
I smiled a little, remembering his attempts at proving he was a handyman and failing then calling a proper tradie before mum found out. i had kept his secret as asked, one of the few times he genuinely seemed to like me in recent times.
Home Repairs
This calls for the special skills of a plumber...and maybe, just maybe, this tradie bull can fix more than just the pipes. i was beginning to get annoyed by now.
Hook Up (A true story)
A tradie with thick arms and a mean face. his bio was some whacked up ramble about power dynamics in a dom/sub relationship. he was bluntly horny, and i was game to play. i flirted a bit, telling him how submissive i can be.
