Why this must be read: During their post-CotW adventure, Fraser and Ray try some Inuit throat singing, the mechanics of which bring them a bit too close for Fraser's comfort. Fraser can't handle it. His reaction – his behavior – is priceless. Pitch-perfect and beautifully written.
"I," Fraser says, and stops moving altogether. "I." He turns himself around so that he's facing Ray, and kinda – inflates, like he's getting ready for Ray to punch him. "I," he adds, real sincere.
Giulietta is excellent at evoking Due South's quirkiness. Her Ray and Fraser voices are spot-on, and she has such a great way with words.
This lovely story is one in an ongoing series called Ten Years Onward, but it's really a stand-alone first-time story, sort of a prequel to the series. I recommend the entire WiP series, but you don't have to have read any of them to enjoy this story.

Excerpt:"So, uh -- what're they so happy about anyway?"
"The spring break-up, of course." Fraser gives Ray a look. "Surely you've noticed the rise in temperature?"
"What rise? I haven't felt anything different. It's really fucking cold, just like always." Okay, maybe there's been more sun lately, but it's still not spring.
Fraser shrugs. "I could show you the river, if you'd like."
"Nah, that's okay -- you'll probably fall in, or something." Fraser opens his mouth -- probably to defend his relationship with rivers -- and Ray thinks that now is probably a good time to change the subject.
