Why this must be read:
Horror stories aren't written all that often in sci-fi fan fiction, but this story is wonderfully creepy, set in an alternate universe where it's considered a status symbol to purchase and use 'eyes' that have been harvested from other people. You see what the original person saw, and when McKay is barges into Miss Lindman's shop, demanding the most expensive eye she sells...well, he gets more than he bargained for in his pearl of great price. There's some great worldbuilding in this story, and some lovely imagery--if you like imagery on the dark side--all told through the POV of an original character.
