Tin Star by Vermin Disciple (Green Cortina)
Fandom: LIFE ON MARS
Pairing: None, Gen
Length: 2,261
Author on LJ: N/A
Author Website: ff.net
Why this must be read:
Hi. I'm skywise012000 and I'll be throwing the Cortina 'round a few corners this month so hang on tight but take that bloody seat belt off - you're a police officer not a vicar!
There is very little information, in canon, about Gene's back story. We get a few hazy hints but the only concrete information we are given is that, when he was a young copper, Gene shopped his mentor, Harry Althwaite, for taking bribes. Harry killed himself and a month later Gene took his first bribe.
This little hidden jewel gives a reason why Gene might have gone from righteous young police constable to bent copper in the space of a month. It's sensitively written and has Gene's inner voice down pat as he finally comes to realise the way things work in the real world.
It's well worth the few minutes it will take you to read it.
