    Bookmarker's Notes

    This story is so good it made me ignore almost every one of my preferences. I started reading it because of the mob tag and was sure I would end up only sort-of liking it. It's gen/het and I really only read slash. Both pairings are also ones I'm not particularly fond of. The motivating character is an OC, and 98 percent of such stories are barely worth the time to read the summaries. However, even with all of those personal handicaps, I still really, really, really enjoyed this story. Well worth the time spent reading.

    Summary

    It left him wondering if Jim had set him up, had maneuvered it all into place. He'd sent Seb there for dinner, with a carefully worded suggestion and a lazy gesture from his office of half-heartedly showing Seb the bottom of his shoe. "That was my unit. I'm Colonel Seb Moran. Well, or I was." He offered John Watson his hand, because it was safe and he still existed as a person and he should do things like that. Say hello.

    Be a person.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    An unexpected pairing developing, but an absolutely magnificent story. Putting these two characters together gives a wonderfully different interpretation of all the various other characters in canon. Very well written and wonderfully mind-twisty, as any story featuring either Moran or Moriarty as narrator should be.

    Summary

    "This isn't a concentration camp," Delta says, calm, like he's been rehearsing it. Erik looks at the gun on his hip, the guards behind him in the corridor, the bars between them.

    He smiles with a lot of teeth. "I think I'd know that better than you."

    AU in which the beach divorce didn't happen and Erik decides to stay and help Charles start his school. But despite their clean break, the government isn't ready to let the mutants disappear into hiding.

    *deep breath* whoa, that's a tough story... Good, but tough. Very important to read and addresses quite a few issues that the authors I've found in this fandom usually either tiptoe around or bathe in. It addresses Erik's history and the darkness of humanity throughly but not overpoweringly. The detail is sparse but all the more powerful for it. If you've been avoiding this story because of the pairing, don't. This story could have been marked gen without any problem. Again, simple but wonderful.
