Romantic Fic Rec: The Firsts by Margot/midnight_birth [R]

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
It's always wonderful to trip over a journal filled with good, well-thought-out fics. Such a one is that of Margot ([info]midnight_birth at LJ). Her work, The Firsts, is thoughtful, slow and steady, and filled with angsty romance between two strong men, Apr. 10th, 2009.

Why I recommend it: Romance sneaks up stealthily in this fic. Circumstances and situations leave Severus and Remus in closer and closer contact until they fall into each others' arms, yet...they don't have a smooth path. It's the journey, told in vignettes from Severus' point-of-view, that are so in-character and convincing.

My summary: Firsts...they come when they will, how they will, and damned be the man who attempts to resist them. Tho', in Severus Snape's case, blessed be!
