Why this must be read:

[Hi. I'm Snowgrouse, and I've nicked the keys to the Crackmobile for the hot month of July. All sorts to come up, brace yourselves.]

Because it's Avon/Tarrant, a rare pairing, and I'm so glad that one of the most talented and brilliant writers in B7 fandom wrote this for a now out-of-print Tarrant zine (Angelfood).
It's based on a Beatles song, and yet, as a Finn myself, I can just *smell* the Nordic pine, the log cabin, and the atmosphere--it is perfectly created. Tarrant in his full youth, and Avon always wary, always running, yet resting for a little while... and yeah, it has Tarrant. I'm in favour of the rarely-liked/loved characters in this fandom, since I can't help but love them all.

But anyway, onto the story, let it speak for itself.

Norwegian Wood.

I love Avon/Tarrant. Thanks for the rec.

Glad you liked it. Hope you saw the earlier recs to the massive Avon/Tarrant epic, "Duty". It's fantastic. I've only done one myself, and it's in my Memories but not particularily good. Still working on the ultimate Tarrant porn;)...

My favourite pairing in B7, and a wonderful story.
I was fortunate to buy a second hand copy of the zine last year. Thoroughly recommend it to anyone contemplating the purchase.
