Oh wow, this sounded totally different from the way it sounded in my head when I read it on the page (screen)! Your Charles seems to have got drunk specifically to seduce Erik, which is a take I had not considered before but makes a lot of sense. Cunning Charles!

Say, would you mind if I repodded this? I love it when there are multiple, very different podfic versions of fics I like, and this seems a good opportunity to create such a situation. If nothing else, there would be a higher quotient of zamwessell-related fanwork on the internets, and that would be a lovely thing.
