[ Other RPF: Danneel/Genevieve ] Title: The Hand, The Head, The Heart Writer: lazy_daze Alternate links: AO3 Status of work: Complete Characters and/or pairings: Danneel Harris/Genevieve Cortese Rating: NC-17 Warnings, kinks & contents: [Click to read]vaginal fisting Length: 18k approx Summary: Danneel Harris lives a normal, dull life - with a normal, dull job and a normal, dull boyfriend. Until she sees classical pianist Genevieve Cortese at a recital - the beautiful performance unlocks the artistic inspiration Danneel thought she'd lost upon leaving art school three years ago. Danneel paints again, her trademark rich abstract pieces bursting forth, and her life turns around and upside down in more ways than one.
A chance meeting leads Genevieve and Danneel to form a friendship and connection which comes to a head when Genevieve asks Danneel to paint her. Their connection and chemistry is something unexpected and terrifying to Danneel - but if she lets it, it could be something beautiful. A story about music, art, passion and love.
Reccer's notes: This is a beautifully written story that includes art and music in a very visceral and passionate way. Danneel's sexual awakening, her coming into her own (or back to the person she once was, perhaps), is really wonderful to watch unfold. Genevieve is a delight, bright and enthusiastic, impulsive and brilliant. Both Danneel and Genevieve feel very true to themselves, as characters and as the people these characters are based off of. Excellent fic, honestly.
