Walls of Glass by Charlotte Frost

Fandom: Starsky and Hutch

Pairing: Starsky/Hutch

Fic Link: http://www.squidge.org/~flamingo/starskyhutchslash/HAS1/glass.htm

Why this must be read: In Heart and Soul 1. I'm a HUGE Star Trek fan and I watched every one of the movies. In Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Spock sacrifices himself for the ship. He has been irradiated and is enclosed in a room with only a glass window between him and the rest of the engineering crew. Kirk comes to talk to him before he passes and, as Henry Jenkins said in the book Textual Poachers, if you take away the glass...that's slash. SH watch the movie and the relation Starsky makes between that scene and the Plague scene from the show is one I was amazed at. Take away the glass, that's slash. Leave the glass up, the two lovers could never touch each other before the end. This was the fear Starsky had when Hutch had the plague. It's an amazing story.
