The whole thing is awesome (I love the idea of Alec having to learn the slang terms that we all know so easily, just picking them up wherever), but the bit that really just killed me?

And when the trainer places a small gentle kiss on the side of 494’s neck, he can’t stop the whimper that escapes.

Poor Alec :( He's starved for affection, for kindness, and it seems as though his trainer is at least fond of him, and yeah. *sigh*

Thank you for sharing this :)
