Ordinarily I would never rec the same author twice, let alone twice in three days, but Crossover Day snuck up on me and the two authors I have already recommended this month also happen to have written two of my favorite Alias crossovers ever. This is probably not a coincidence, as I get pretty much all my recs from reading my friends list(s) and don't routinely read new archive updates or anything, but, I really love this story and I haven't rec'd any slash or any Sark stories yet, so, y'all should check this one out too.
Why this must be read: I think spy crossovers featuring sex, angst, and not-quite-random encounters between dangerously attractive men are just a worthwhile idea in general, but what sets this story apart is the way both Sark and the writer use the observation of details to reveal--as any good spy would--who and what both characters are.
He kissed Sark like a lover, as if he'd never known anything but considerate love-making under cotton sheets in a tastefully decorated room. His hands bracketed Sark's face, thumbs skirting across his cheekbones, holding him still for another kiss, then pulled back to look at him.
. . . Sark never had been one for fair play.
