Walk Away by Shosen (PG)

Fandom: CSI
Pairing: none
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] shosen
Author Website: Totally Kawaii
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.

A really sweet fic! Though I'm not at all involved with CSI fandom, I'm very much into Greg on the show, and a while back I tried to scrounge up some Greg-related fanfic, but that endeavour turned out to be hopeless without guidance. Which means that I'm really looking forward to the CSI recs here on crack_van. Will there be more Greg/Nick? *hinthint* *g*

The problem with Nick/Greg, to be honest, is that there isn't much of it out there, and what there is I wouldn't really call representative of the fandom or even really something I'd recommend. I keep hoping to find something that isn't a WIP to rec, but as of now I'm still looking. You can find some fic at my (still very small) Nick/Greg archive here (http://desiderium.slashcity.net/csi/main.html). Right now it's just some of my stuff and a handful of other writers I know, but it's a start.

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. :)

A good resource for episode titles (and transcripts) is here:

And I'd welcome your fic at the archive. I'm always looking for more Nick/Greg fic. I write more of it than is probably healthy myself.

Just a note: the original link isn't working right now, but this is. Apparantly she's doing some redesign/shuffling work.

The fic seems to have been moved here: http://www.totallykawaii.com/tkwp/2003/06/walk-away-csi-ng-pg/
