Writing style
In due South Author Profiles, Aingeal says:
- "AC Chapin's style is hard to pin down. She's very good at the slightly darker aspects of emotion; of want and need and love and regret all bound up together. However her lighter fluff is also lovely and her F/V has the hallmark of great banter. She's also very good at Ray Vecchio and his emotional turmoil, but her Fraser too is perfectly realised. They come across as human beings above all. Human and with human flaws." [1]
Notable Works
due South
- Across (Fraser/Vecchio, PG). A dark supernatural fic. Not only does it have that 'crack' element it's also a perfect study of the Fraser/Vecchio relationship in terms of give and take.
- Acharnement(Fraser/Vecchio, R). A wonderful study of give and take and need. There's an undercurrent of real dark emotion in this too. It shows the complexity of Fraser/Vecchio.
- A Motion Not My Own (Vecchio/Angie, PG). This is a bittersweet fic looking at the end of the relationship between Ray Vecchio and Angie. It's just heartbreaking.
- Pancakes (Gen, G). Hilarious and entirely dialogue. A typical morning in the Vecchio home. The voices come through so clearly. As does the chaos.
- The Spelling Lesson (Fraser/Vecchio, G). Fraser unintentionally critiques a line of Ray's poetry. The banter is brilliant and the sweetness not too overwhelming.
