Compassion's Heart by Charlotte Frost
Fandom: Starsky and Hutch
Pairing: Starsky and Hutch
Fic Link: http://www.squidge.org/~flamingo/starskyhutchslash/HAS2/compaspro.htm
Why this must be read: This is from the zine Heart and Soul 2 and has always stuck with me as being a great read. The story starts off with a letter, written by a drunken Starsky in the Dobey's kitchen late at night. Instructions For Being Hutch's Partner, written by David Starsky. The list is heartfelt in itself, but the path that their lives take them on afterwords makes re-reading the list completely changed. Starsky makes Dobey promise to keep the list safe and give it to Hutch's new partner if something should happen to him. A few bad cases and some discoveries on their own lead them into life turns that they hadn't expected. Then, when Hutch receives the letter from Dobey for other reasons, it means so much more than what Starsky originally planned it to. The love, the understanding, the heartfelt concern of one partner for another is felt in those crooked, wandering lines written by Starsky one late night so long ago.

Glad you liked it:) I'm looking forward to seeing what next month's recs reveal. Always nice to rediscover some old classics.

Re: Loved this
And you're right about replying to rec posts. I think it's very good to show your support, even if you've already read the story, or even if you didn't like it. I'd have died a slow, painful death if it hadn't been for you having my back in February. (Especially after those alpha girls jumped me...)
