due South Recs Redux

Title: Gloria (The Alias That You've Been Living Under)
Author: china_shop
Pairing: Fraser/Vecchio
Rating: NC-17
Length: medium
Why I'm reccing this fic:

Because never before has a characterization of ANYONE stayed with me as long or been as intriguing to me as this portrayal of Ray Vecchio as a drag queen named Gloria. Because this story knocks me dead EVERY time I read it. Because by reccing this, I get to point you toward the WONDERFUL sequals (at the bottom of the page) written by sageness and china_shop, because this is a whole different 'verse and it is ALL beautiful. Because it is funny and sweet and HOT and just full of wonderful bits and it so much more textured and layered than a story about an improbable drag queen has any right to be. And because, after all is said and done, this is the story that has stuck with me the most out of any story that I've read in the DS fandom this year.

Rating: NC-17
Length: 3,400 words
Why I'm reccing this fic:

Let me just state right off the bat that I am in LOVE with ignazwisdom's Frannie. There are very few people whose characterizations of Frannie that I buy, and I am just in absolute AWE of how well she gets Frannie. Even if you don't like femmeslash, read this! (And then let it convert you and learn to love it damn it! *g*) There are just so many things that I love about this story that I don't even know where to begin to tell you about them, excpet that I love all of it so very much that you must read it RIGHT NOW!

Pairing: Kowalski/Vecchio
Rating: NC-17
Length: medium
Why I'm reccing this fic:

So let me just start with pointing out that brooklinegirl has the Rays DRUNK DIALING each other. Allow that wonderful senario to sink in for a bit. Then realize that this wonderful senario is only THE TIP OF ICEBERG for why I love this story so much. This is just them, pure and simple. She breaks them and puts them back together again, a little bit broken, but better together than apart.
