A Deeper Season, by E.E. Beck and Stasia
[Vorkosigan]
Title: A Deeper Season
Authors: E.E. Beck lightgetsin and Sahiya sahiya
Summary: Take one Miles, a hapless cousin, Cetagandan social politics, a galactic conspiracy, a scientific discovery, a lot of firepower, and an unexpected declaration. Mix well and step back quickly.
Pairing: Miles Vorkosigan/Gregor Vorbarra, Ivan Vorpatril/Ekaterin Vorsoisson
Rating: up to NC-17
Warning: AU
Simply the best fanfic I’ve ever read. The romantic relationship between Miles and Gregor is built completely convincingly. It could fit seamlessly in canon, in terms of plot, tone and characterisation. Not to be missed.
Although I’ve done my best to put all the stories in chronological order, anyone reading them for the first time should begin with A Deeper Season, then What Passing Bells.
“So you want a difficult, challenging, power-hating wife?” Miles asked, raising an eyebrow. “Gregor, do you realize you’re describing my mother?”
Gregor laughed into his cup of coffee. “Not quite,” he said, setting it down and laying his hands flat on the table as he gazed at Miles. “Close, but not quite.”
