louiseluxHere's a few stories that leapt out at me as I was reading this evening, from Yuletide Treasures
The Shocking Affair of the Dutch Steamship Friesland is a Sherlock Holmes story with wonderfully convincing voices and plot.
Alike in Ignorance- Sandman, Dream/Hob Gadling, and Dream/Desire. I'm far too full to be very coherent, but this was a great. The strange coldness of the Endless contrasts well with Hob's very human worrying and there's a lovely, tentative, not-quite-romance between Hob Gadling and Dream.
Cumulative effort Good Omens. There's some lovely stuff here, and I really enjoyed Crowley's part-snarky, part-baffled interest in Aziraphale's love life. Yes, he has a love life!
For Every Season Eroica. Klaus/Dorian. Very short and full of yearning. Lovely understated writing.
