A Delicate Balance by ~delle (R)

Why this must be read:
This is a longer, beautifully plotted 'mission' story, written about mid-way through the original run, but set ahead in time in the canon universe. Because the focus is the mission, nothing about the world is truly out of place, but readers who know how the series played out might detect a few differences between what ~delle guessed might happen, and what TPTB gave us. The story has the perfect mix of mystery, section-style intrigue and action, blended with just the right amount of development of Michael and Nikita's ongoing and painfully intense and challenging romance.
This is one of my early favorites. ~delle has a fantastic touch with the darkness of the world of Section, and the ways this affects the lives of those trapped within it, but without bleeding over into either either angst or nihilism, a delicate balance indeed!
