Walk Away by Shosen (PG)

Why this must be read: This is a gen post-ep fic for season two's "Stalker", an episode in which Nick is stalked from inside his own house. The resolution of the episode was a little sloppy, and once it was over the stalking incident was never mentioned on the show again. There's no real reaction from Nick regarding the invasion of his privacy, and consequently the episode is a starting point for a lot of fic writers who want to deal with the resolution we never got onscreen.

This particular treatment is a short gen piece that not only deals with Nick's residual feelings of violation, but it also showcases his friendship with Greg in a really nice way. Shosen chose Greg as the character to reach out to Nick and offer him the help he couldn't ask for on his own, and she did it in a really nice way that follows their canon interaction very well. This is absolutely my favorite post-"Stalker" fic.

It really surprised me when I first looked around for CSI slash that there wasn't more of it in general, and not more Greg in particular. Yep, I was a Greg-lover from the first ep I saw, and sometimes it's hard for me to grasp that not everyone is as into cute science-geeks as I am. *g* Your archive is lovely, and I hope it'll eventually fill up with great stories. I've toyed with the idea of writing some Nick/Greg myself, possibly something set after the episode with the S&M club. (Don't know ep titles; they don't show them here.) If I do write anything, I'll know where to send it for archiving. :)
