Love In A Faithless Country by Alexandria (PG-13)

Fandom: THE PROFESSIONALS
Pairing: Bodie/Doyle
Author on LJ: None
Author Website: Unknown
Why this must be read:

I don't really see Bodie as this insensitive, especially when it concerns Ray, yet the story still works for me. I suppose because people can hide things from themselves and do whatever it takes to steer clear of a situation that threatens. Bodie's reasons for being that way being explained also helps to make the situation more acceptable. And maybe you can run, but you can't hide as Bodie finds out for himself as Ray does everything he can, all with the best intentions, to get Bodie to see the light.

So even though Bodie is portrayed a bit more callous than I see him, and Ray is portrayed a bit more needy, this is still a story I can lose myself in time and time again, reveling in the angst of it all. And I do so love stories that make their friendship the glue that holds them together, being more inportant than the attraction or even the success of the partnership, being the reason for the attaction and the success of the partnership.
