Why this must be read:

You must have noticed by now that 'voice' is very important to me, and the thing that struck me about this story was -- surprise! -- voice. There are maybe five fics I've ever read, in more fandoms than I care to admit, that were in well-written first person. This is one of them. Vo has Orlando dead on rights. She has everyone.

Reading this is really like listening to Orlando talk: the Orlando that lives in my head, the Orlando I want him to be, the Orlando I hope he is. And the conceit of the prologue is delightful, which just makes the whole story one I keep coming back to -- it has an unseen pull of its own.
