Fall From Grace by lamardeuse (PG)
Fandom: Due South
Pairing: Fraser/Kowalski
Length: short
Author on LJ:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lamardeuse
Author Website: when the world is puddle-wonderful
Why this must be read:lamardeuse rarely writes Due South any more which makes me very sad, but luckily she wrote a lot of them before she moved on to other fandoms. She is one of favorite authors, and when I don't have a specific story in mind, I often go to her website and just start reading. Most of lamardeuse's stories were written for ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
ds_flashfiction (a community I will be referencing again this month) so they are realively short and easy to jump into. What I love about lamardeuse's writing is how she puts you right in the scene. From the first sentence you are part of the story. He characterization and dialogue are wonderful. Fall From Grace is fabulous example of how in a fairly short story, she paints a complete picture of Fraser and Ray's life together. It is a wonderful piece that exemplifies showing rather than telling. The first paragraph is behind the cut. Once you read that, I know you'll want to read the rest.
“Asshole. You’re such an asshole.”
The nurse looked up at him, startled. Yeah, so this was not the type of conversation she was used to hearing. She’d just have to get over it, was all, because no way was he going to sit there clutching Fraser’s hand and crying over him. That wasn’t the way to get to him anyway.
