Why This Must Be Read | A post season six finale AU in which Alex does not hang around in Seattle and instead seeks out one time mentor, one time lover, Addison Montgomery. What he finds instead is not what he was expecting. And you, dear reader, won't be expecting this either! These two broken people are so painfully, perfectly wrong for each other, and once you've got the idea of them in your head, you won't be able to get over it. I promise...!

Why This Must Be Read: There's more than one way to be in bed with the enemy. Spoilers through Auld Acquaintance. The narration and voices of both characters is wonderfully perfect. It addresses the whole s1 ending shocker, and just - yes. This is why I ship this pairing, and I was utterly delighted to find such a well-written story featuring them.

Why This Must Be Read: I saw that someone wanted SM recs for Usagi/Mamoru, so I figured I'd put up my favorite. This one is a 58,000 word story, so nice and long. Basically, Usagi is growing up, and her friends are not keeping up with the changes. They still see her as that clumsy, scatterbrained little girl. She is remembering herself and has to decide who to trust with her secret. What is Mamoru's test? How do the Senshi earn her trust back? I would recommend this for its unique look on the relationships between past and present, between who they were and who they are.
