Why this must be read: this is another excellent story that came out of this year's ds_match, this time for Team Reality, which really should have won, in my humble opinion...
This is Fraser's story. This is Fraser's life, from growing up in the wild places of the far north to the long, almost unbearable days in Chicago. This is Fraser's love, all those people, deserving or not, who he has given his heart to.
innocentsmith has a beautiful way with words not often seen in fanfiction. The story-telling is lyrical and eloquent, subtly shading in the details of the characters in a way that makes them come to life. A wonderful read that's very true to Fraser.
Just the bright air around them as they searched for his pack, the shining black of a lone raven flying above, were too much, let alone the thick curls of her hair, the classic structure of a face he recognized from so many old photographs of much older statues. That was what beauty looked like, he thought. And almost suspected her for it. Mostly he was overwhelmed, as ravenous for her as he was for the food they devoured there in the snow. He knew he would have to turn her in. He knew, too, that these rations they consumed now would stick in his throat every time another woman turned her face up for his kiss.
