Pairing/Character Focus: brad colbert/ray person

What makes this a gem:

But all the papers from here to New York can damn well take notice: Ray was born when the thunder was raging and crashin', came out of his mama with the Devil at his heels, and took off running straight to Texas buck naked and covered in blood. (Well, says Brad, that may've been the first time he found himself in that situation, but it sure as hell weren't the last.)
Or: "Gentlemen, from now on we're going to have to earn our stories."

for a moment there i thought we were in trouble is a western au, which sees brad and ray joining up to form a legendary team, feared and revered across the states.

[archiveofourown.org profile] indigostohelit has both brad's and ray's voices done pat; even with their speech-patterns altered to fit the setting, it is still obvious to spot the distinctive style of the two men.

the use of repetition is extremely effective in this; it fits well with the imagery of the whole story being recounted as a tale.
