Hi, I'm cat, and I've been your LotRiPS driver three times before. Sorry I'm getting off to a bit of a slow start this month, but I'm ready to get it in gear now.

Fandom: LotRiPS
Pairing: Viggo/Orlando
Author on LJ: traveller
Author Website: buddhist punk
Why this must be read:

Attention to detail is one of the most remarkable aspects of traveller's fics-- everything is vivid and immediate and real. This fic is certainly no exception. The language here is musical and the whole thing is quite lovely, beautiful and happy and understated, in a way that is quite appropriate to the relationship being depicted.

Viggo paced the bedroom, his cigarette hanging from his lip, and Orlando could hear the wind moan through the pines, Orlando could hear the windows rattle in their frames, and finally Viggo shrugged and pinched off the end of his cigarette. When he slid in beside Orlando his hands were warm and his breath was stale and Orlando spilled a little wine in his hurry to forget that he ever hurt, even for a moment.
