I think I hate you.

ok, not really, but I have other stuff that needs doing and now I'm reading fic.

LOL!

I'm trying really hard to look sorry and apologetic - I always laugh like this when I feel guilty *g*

Hope you enjoy reading - the other stuff will still be there later, honest it will :D

::sighs::

Oh I know. Once it's on the 'net, it's around forever, but reading seems to be compulsion, and most of the Pros fic is extraordinarily well written and tempting.

but it's a relationship that never tips over into being soft or girly - she writes them as blokey blokes:

That's an essential ingredient for me and, in my opinion, an accurate depiction of *them* - who they are in fanon.

Another great rec and reminder, thank you!

Exactly, me too! I want them to be rough and tough, and equal partners, and men! I love that Drayce never loses track of that when she writes them.

It's lovely to share all these lovely fics... I'm having way too much fun doing this. The keys to the van may need to be surgically removed *g*

Lovely! And the give and banter is spot on too. The fact that Bodie goes from the "limpid pools" comment straight onto "pond scum" is pure lads. Thanks for the great rec!

Isn't that a wonderful line? *g* You can't help but grin when you read lines like that... and I can imagine them saying it on screen too.

And you're ever so welcome *g*

Catching up with heaps of crack in one brain-melting swoop, and oh hee, thanks for reminding me of this. Love it. Particularly the sudden flashes of seriousness in the middle of the banter. Yum.

It's delicious, isn't it? Drayce gets them just right, with never a wobble.
