Title: Character/ Pairing Study of X27 (or 'How I Got Into X27')

Note: This is only my own analysis of X27. It is by no means exhaustive, or the only way to portray these two. I'm sure many of my more gifted peers can produce more compelling interpretations.

( and all that anger has to go someday, or it'll destroy him )

To post this fic, I mean. It's a little different from my usual fare, in that it's gen where the romance makes cameos. Bit complicated too. Best to open a separate window, so you can refer to the author's notes at the bottom as you read.

Don't mean to sound self-interested, but I got this interesting question from a lovely reader over at ff.net; which reaaaallllyy got me thinking. And it concerns the state of the X27 fandom in general as well, so I'd thought to share the answer.

Q: What is your favourite scenario for a X27 fanfic?
