Why this must be read:

On one of my first attempts at driving, I recommended the Saki-chan Universe. Quirky, fun, porntastic, it's a delightful universe many authors have joined. But with Tangled Up in Lace, Toffee has put the exclamation point on this enthralling epic by answering the question - what happens when they grow up?

Years after that fateful mission where he first became ‘Saki’ and after running away to Orochimaru, Sasuke has returned and finds himself confronting Naruto – and his past - once more. Two men try to come to terms with the lives they have chosen and what/who they really want; it isn't what either expect.

Why this must be read: In the name of full disclosure, I beta-read this fic. In my defence, that was years ago. This story is sickening and disturbing in all the best ways. It's psychological horror, has elements of gore, and to top it all off, it's frighteningly plausible. It explores a side to Sam that I'm personally in love with. His dark side.

Why this must be read:

This is one of those fics that just makes me happy. It’s got an interesting backstory, and lovely interaction between Ray and Fraser. Beautifully in character, and what isn’t said is as gorgeous as what is. Dira does a stunning job of giving us complete pictures with a minimum of description, each word carefully chosen. And considering it’s Fraser’s POV, that makes perfect sense.

Plus, it’s got an amazing explanation for Fraser’s incredible wordbank.

and so it begins… )

***Please note the rating***

Having started with Harlequins when I was very young, I tend to like my slash warm, romantic, passionate, and with a happy ending. Trey or A Tale Of Three Clans has all of these but it is also very - hmm - graphic!?!

It has a wonderful view of the clans of Konoha, 3 of my favorite characters, and yet .. it's really, really explicit. The story .. I liked it, thought about it afterward, and the ideas presented were original and intriguing with great insight into specific Japanese roles. Team 8 may not have alway been in-character, but I loved the rare look into the Abumare and Inuzuka clans. But it's really ... whew, is it hot in here??

So, I can't not rec it; but please, consider your preferences and the rating!
