Rec: Life (Sometimes It Washes Over Me)
Wow. I'm sure many people have read this, and while it's a very atypical AU, it's absolutely gorgeous and heartbreaking and real. Don't be scared away from it, I promise, it's worth it. All of the mcshep_match fics have been great, but this one - literally - took my breath away. Go. Read. Even if this is not your fandom. And shower praises on the author, whoever it is.
