Theodosia here, in for my last rec, as our term here is ending!

I was very very tempted to choose -- for my very last recommendation here -- the very first story I read in due South fandom (slash or otherwise), Speranza's "Chicago's Most Wanted". It was in fact the first time I'd ever read slash that made me say, "Oh my gawd, I never saw that in

Great rec, Theo!

My first DS fic was Four Virtues, so I know what you mean about having that happy, warm feeling whenever you think about "what made me fall so hard in love with these two guys"

Scrabble is amazing on so many different levels. I'm so glad you recced this!

The first DS slash fic I read that I liked -- no, loved -- was in fact Chicago's Most Wanted, and I'm afraid it set the bar for everything else. Funnily, I resisted reading Scrabble because initially though I recognized the brilliance of the format, it seemed like too much of an effort to read it - I was concerned with reading it the "right" way. Suffice to say I got over it, and smacked myself silly for waiting so long.

Wait, what Scotsman? Who said that?

And also, I really love Scrabble, and the DH Lawrence contained therein, and the fact that apparently it's improved my Scrabble game! You have such excellent taste. But far be it from me to make any sequitur-like comments. What Scotsman?
