[frayadjacent]

Title: Milkshake & Honey
Fandom: Orphan Black
Song: Milkshake 'n' Honey by Sleater-Kinney
Pairings: Cosima/Delphine, Sarah/Cal, Sarah/Paul, Alison/Donnie, Felix/Colin, Rachel/Paul, Siobhan/Carlton, Helena/Helena's boyfriend, Felix/Tony.

Much thanks to kuwdora for beta and cheerleading!
Premiered at Escapade 2015, but by happy coincidence was finished on Valentines Day 2015.

Content Notes: Uses scenes through S2, but spoilers are more of the character/relationship variety than the plot variety. Portrays scenes that are dub-con in the source as sexy and playful; includes sexualized depictions of needles and medical procedures; and shows female-on-male intimate partner violence as sexy and/or funny. Feel free to ask specific questions about content.

This is magnificent -- I love the echoes of similarities among all the relationship dynamics.

[frayadjacent]

Thank you! It was fun to discover just how many parallels there are. :D

[jadelennox]

Oh man, how awesome. I love the exploration of them being each other -- but also Felix and Mrs. S. and everyone else. All the fucked up sexytimes, violent or twisted and sweet-but-so-odd.

(and thanks for making a download!)

All the fucked up sexytimes, violent or twisted and sweet-but-so-odd

Hee hee, that's it exactly! And I'm glad you want the download. I prefer to download vids myself so I'll always provide the option, but I'm never sure how many people actually do it.

This is great! I love the parallels, especially the surveillance, spying and distrust in the second section. And oh wow, the intercutting of physical intimacy of medical experimentation and procedures with sexual intimacy at the end! What an insightful punch.

(BUT WAIT, when did Mrs. S get a sexy boyfriend? Important questions).

[frayadjacent]

Thank you!!

Mrs. S's sexy boyfriend is from a mid-S2 episode -- I'm not sure if you watched that far? -- and sadly they only have a few scenes. Though she mentioned him to Sarah in S1 when she was telling Sarah about when Mrs S first took her in.

This is really great! :D

[frayadjacent]

Thank you!!

[restfield]

It's amazing, and it made me want to rewatch the whole series right away. I never noticed that there were so many parallels, especially in their fuckedupness.

[frayadjacent]

thank you so much!

Oh, delightful! I love the clear structure of this, from the initial sense of romance to betrayal to that "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" embrace of the darkness. Wicked and sexy.

[frayadjacent]

Yay, thank you so much! Wicked and sexy was definitely what I was going for. :D

[umadoshi]

This is so wonderful! *^^* Oh, I love them all. Come back soon, show!

[frayadjacent]

Thank you! I'm counting down till the season premiere! my understanding is that they started the show with a 3-season plan so I have high expectations that this season will deliver.

[umadoshi]

I hope so...! *^^*

I love how you are pairing Sleater-Kinney with Orphan Black! And I also love how you moved from sweet to WTF, creepy! throughout the vid.

[frayadjacent]

Thank you! I had a few other Sleater-Kinny/Orphan Black ideas, but these were the only two that got made. :D

Love the music choice. OMG, Sleater-Kinney 4ever.

The structure and pacing is so great and jacked up. I'm super into it. There's humor, there's serious, there's something for everyone.
