DS Match Fic: I am A Man Upon the Land

Title: I am A Man Upon the Land
Author: [livejournal.com profile] simplystars
Pairing:Fraser/Kowalski
Rating: PG-13
Length: 13,000 words
Why I'm reccing this fic: I've always enjoyed tent-fic. This started off as a fine example of the genre, with Fraser watching and yearning as Ray adapted to the Arctic conditions. Then Fraser started to tell a story, one that was mysteriously important to him, and I was captivated. As Fraser shares this story with Ray, his voice is transformed from the everday to the poetic, the sacred.

Go. Read. Experience.

Title: Lift
Author: to be revealed
Pairing: Kowalski/Vecchio, Fraser/Kowalski/Vecchio
Rating: R
Length: 6,200 words
Why I'm reccing this fic:

Team Reality opened the game with an intriguing, gritty and plotty story. I enjoyed reading
The Harder They Fall, a lot. It has great character voices and I felt for both of them. I loved how it felt real with real life problems. It's well worth your time. I know I'm going to re-visit it.

So, I can see you scratching your head, why do I rec Lift? Because I fell head over heels in love with it. I love their voices. I love RayV, for me the mile stone of characterization. I can buy a lot of RayKs and Frasers, but RayV is special. This is so an intriguing view on him, I want to know more.

And I love the rest of the story too. The plot, the theme, the humor and the angst. It's all seamlessly weaved together into one beautiful story. I've already read it twice and I know I'm going to re-read it, and re-read it...
