Shuffle by Susan (R)

[igbc.livejournal.com]

Hi all, I'm Nyssa, and I'll be driving the S&H van this month! There's about 30 years worth of awesome fic in this fandom, but I've managed to find a few gems that have not yet been recced here. They will all be slash, simply because that's what I like, and because I just can't see this show any other way. Maybe that's my own limitation, but I hope you enjoy it. :-)

Fandom: Starsky and Hutch
Pairing: Starsky/Hutch
Length: 4543 words
Author on LJ: sjames_centre
Author website: Most of Susan's stuff can be found here: http://shslash.kassidyrae.com/fiction.html

Why this must be read: Susan's fic abounds with sharp observations, pitch-perfect dialogue, and lovely angst. I really can't say enough about her. This particular fic is a perfectly-wrought AU which gives us Hutch as an unhappily married lawyer, Starsky as an unhappily married cop with a hankering for guys, and a few other familiar faces skewed just enough to make things fascinating. Throw in a murdered woman, a marital split, and a recurring poker motif, and you've got one of the best S&H AU's I've read.

Thank you for letting me know. *g* I've been dutifully adding those quote marks ever since I started on LJ and was told to do it that way.

Hmmm... I wonder just how much wasted time that adds up to... time I could have been flashslashing. *g*

[lauramcewan.livejournal.com]

Yes you could have been! *cracks whip*

[draycevixen.livejournal.com]

Hmmm... I still haven't had the nerve to look at your challenge that had Gloriana making "Eeeep" noises.

That would be like taking a whipping, right? *g*

Thank you! I'll edit.

The coding is {lj user="person_here"} with the carrots around it instead of square brackets

Thanks! Got it now.

[lauramcewan.livejournal.com]

The quote marks aren't actually required. :)

[nickygabriel]

I didn't know that! :)

Thanks very much for the kind words about the story. It's the only AU I've ever written and I enjoyed the challenge of keeping them recognizable.

You're welcome, and I hope the rec draws readers! It's really a great fic.
