Recs and Reviews

Warning: There is non-con (non-consensual sex) in Summer Redundant. I'm not sure exactly how new this story is, it was for a challenge on the Slashing Mulder site. I have no idea what goes on there, because I'm an M/K girl as you know and that site mostly ends up with M/SK stories on it. I was on the list for it, but it just didn't appeal to my tastes, so...as you may have guessed I left it. If you know anything about the M/Sk side of the street you know they pretty much see Mulder as a bottom. Why in the hell I don't know, since he is as alpha as you can get. He's got that lone wolf, pack all unto himself, answers to no one thing happening. Mainly, the chicks on the M/K side of the street think Mulder's a top/bottom kindof guy, that he likes both. I'm mentioning this, so you'll know Mulder gets topped by Alex in this story alot. Most M/K girls also think Alex is both a top/bottom kindof guy too, so yet again don't be shocked he's doing so much topping. This story doesn't have a ton of sex in it, mostly it's inside Alex's head and what he thinks and feels about Mulder. He isn't a perfect guy is what I like most about him in this series, I think. He's sortof fucked up. Scribe has captured some of that. She(he, I won't assume) has tapped into Alex's inner sociopath I guess you could say. You see Alex isn't as balanced as he could be, I think that might be what Alex is really like. There's a passion to this series too, that I found fascinating. The reason I always find M/K slash believable is that Mulder and Krycek are both just too fucked up to ever have a normal relationship. There is no way they could ever really live normal lives, much less be with a partner who wasn't mixed up in this whole thing too. Their lives are just too dangerous and bizarre to pull some poor hapless bystander into them. Mulder and Alex are both too wild and untamed to ever be with Skinner, I don't care what anyone says, so don't write me. They both need another wild, lone wolf to compliment them. I think that is what the passion in this one evokes, through the use of poetry (hence the name), that they are an odd kindof kindred spirits. Inexplicably drawn to one another. The author has been posting new parts to this to the lists every few days, so I may be adding more parts to the list below later.[1]

In this story where nearly every chapter coincides with a poem or nursery rhyme, Alex is wanting. R: I don't like poetry as much as I should, since I write the stuff. miraculously, I loved everything that was in here. I've been re-reading the Poetic Series (in order this time), and I can't believe how much detail is in this story. And, I like the twist involving Skinner and Alex. Oh, and the scene at the bar was effin' awesome. The bartender was hilarious. Krycek/Mulder *****+(FAV)[2]

Heart, We Will Forget Him by Scribe - This is one among Scribe's lovely poetic series. Lots of poems and M/K moments. But this one is definitely one of my favourites. Can't really explain it though. Perhaps it's the drinks mentioned, or the poetry quoted... "You must forget the warmth he gave, I will forget the light..."[3]
