Why This Must Be Read: This takes place in a distant future where Cesare recently murdered Alfonso, his sister beloved husband, assumedly out of jealousy. A more mature Lucrezia has closeted herself in her rooms and  Cesare forces his way in, desperate to gain her forgiveness, and the unfolding scene results in a very vivid portrait of their relationship. The way Lucrezia is able to punish Cesare with her words alone shows the power she has on her brother, and the fact her brother doesn't even try to fight it, just taking all she has to offer, shows the true extent of his vulnerability where she is concerned.  And despite the overall darkness of their relationship, there's also a lightness, when forgiveness comes, because in the end Lucrezia and Cesare don't exist without each other. Magical storytelling for a beautifully thought-out story, and i don't know what else i can add. It was one entirely perfect fic.

Why This Must Be Read: This is short and lovely - a lost scene from 1.04 where Cesare follows up on Giulia's lesson on kisses and innocent but spirited Lucrezia masters her lessons quite well. Again, the general feeling that shines through the piece is the mutual adoration between Lucrezia and Cesare.

Why This Must Be Read: this fic takes incest and it turns it into something pure. It's also painfully poetic, intense, amazingly well-written. Cesare's chracterization in particular is so good than it's scary and it's all in his body language. Even if you are normally weirded out by incest-fics, chances are yoiu will love this anyway and you will find no reason to be weirded out. Because it's C/L down to T, and the piece is that special. Basically in this oneshot, a drunken Juan forces, in his brass manner, his siblings to confront their less platonic feelings toward each other. And everything explodes from there on...beautifully.
