Fade to Gray is a Blake's 7 Avon/Vila story by Catocala.
It was first published in Oblaque #4.
From the editorial of Oblaque:
Catocala's tale comes closest to what we all yearn for: a happily-ever-after, although both Avon and Vila suffer to get there.

If "Bittersweet is splendid, "Fade to Gray" is stunning, an absolute must-read for A/V fans. Set in series four, Avon takes Vila with him to negotiate an agreement with a class-ridden society where the Grays are de facto slaves, roughly equivalent to Deltas. Avon and Vila have been lovers but not for some time. Avon is at his most forbidding and Vila, disillusioned and drinking too much, gets himself into trouble and incurs his ex's wrath in a big way. I'm not going to say what happens next but their estrangement is ultimately resolved. The writing is exquisite, and if this one doesn't get you where it hurts, nothing will.[1]
