Neal sings several songs in this fic; song titles, in order of appearance - and even a YouTube playlist - are in the notes at the end. Also, drugs are dangerous, and the definition of "sex" for the purposes of this fic is the standard one - intercourse involving penetration (vaginal, anal, or oral). There isn't any here.
