Why this must be read:

For all of Fringe's mad-science premise, it's an easy series to cross over with other shows set in the real world. Here, Lexington, Kentucky becomes the focal point of a Fringe event. The local marshals, including Raylan Givens and Tim Gutterson, are pulled into an investigation far beyond their experience. And Lincoln Lee meets up with someone he never thought he'd encounter again. I love how naturally this flows, and the entirely real reactions between the characters from very different worlds.

(ETA: Now that there's a Justified tag [thank you, mods!], I hope someone steps up to rec fic for that magnificent show!)

I'm sad to say I don't have many recs involving the Alpha kids, but I did manage to find one or two I really liked that didn't spoil too much for someone like me who's still catching up. *embarrassed cough*

Why this must be read: I'm not yet up to the Alpha kids storyline, but the summary and pairing twerked my curiosity (because I'm all about Stridercest and Lalondecest and all combinations of the two - I have no shame about this). What I found here was heartbreaking sadstuck and a good introduction to Dirk's character and background for someone like me who knew only bits and pieces. I imagine for more up-to-date fans (RE: everyone but me, xD ), it's a nice filler for his background story if it's not touched too much upon in the comic. Fair warning, it'll make you cry, or at least tear up considerably. All the feelz right here. T.T

This fic inspired Just Say The Magic Wordby chromyrose, which is basically the same story but focuses on Roxy instead (though it doesn't have her falling in love with alpha!Rose outside of a mother-daughter thing). Pretty similar story, so if you enjoy this one, then Just Say The Magic Word is well worth a read (especially if you like Roxy)!
