Reactions and Reviews
I don't normally go for Avon/Vila stories, because although I see the affection between them I don't tend to sexualise it, but this is a terrific story. It's that old slash chestnut, Our Heroes Keep Warm In A Very Cold Place, but it is done well enough not to seem like a cliché.[1]
If you like good dialogue, gorgeously lyrical prose, hot sex and stories that just *grip* you and won't let you go--You can't go wrong with M. Fae Glasgow. "Bothy" is one of her lighter pieces. It's a take on the classical cave/cabin theme, this time with Avon and Vila being snowed in. You can tell this is her favourite pairing--the love shows in the delightful way this is written. The dialogue is excellent: mastering Vila's and Avon's speech patterns and creating Robert Holmes banter is no mean feat. The humour is laugh-out-loud funny, the angsty parts whimper-out-loud sad, the sex squeak-out-loud hot:).Also? Bonus points for convincing me of the possibility of Avon/Vila (On the basis of canon dialogue being so nasty at times, I usually see Avon despising Vila too much for any slash to happen).
Go. Read. Now. It's the good crack:).[2]
