Why this must be read:

Rhi has written several lovely HL crossovers, and it was really hard for me to pick just one. Do yourself a favor and spend some time browsing her website.

"Clair de Lune" is a Joe and Oz story, and it always leaves a big smile on my face, because come on, JOE AND OZ. Joe's warmth, Oz's quiet humor, and their shared love of good music make this a delightful and utterly natural interaction between two characters who are often relegated to the background.


Then the kid who'd been carded by both his waitresses took the stage. He'd spent half his time sipping his beer and eating a corned beef on rye so carefully that Amy brought him more fries on the house, and the other half painting his nails arterial red with a nail polish called 'Sanguine.' (Joe'd laughed himself half-sick when Jacqi asked what it meant.)

Joe wasn't laughing now. No one in the bar was making a sound because they'd have had to miss a note and Jesus God, but this guy was good.
