Roswell/BtVS (R)

Title: You're a Souvenir, a Darling, Dear by Scynneh
Pairing: Angelus/Rath
Author on LJ: transtempts
Author Website: Transylvanian Temptations

Why this must be read:
The writer summarizes this as "the essential meeting-fic" and in many ways it is. Naughty (and downright evil) alter-egos of favorite characters colliding in a dark alley is about as much of a plot as you will find in this story. (Should you need a refresher on the Roswell doubles I direct you to the excellent primer; just look under "Dupes") There's a total disregard for time-lines, but that is more than compensated by the incisive Angelus characterization that is glimpsed through the insanely hot encounter between the boys.

The title of this story alone was enough to make me read it, but if you need more, here is a sample:

His latent homosexuality may have been obvious, but he was scared as hell and wasn't going to do anything about it. Never mind that there were no relationships; he lived to be ninety for God's sake. He must have really been afraid of dying to live half a century longer than the average life expectancy.
