Why this must be read: The seventh season fanfiction was the hardest for me to choose from. I wasn't that happy with the series by this point, but many of the stories that were being written for it and during it were amazing. This is a transcendent, unforgetable story of love and commitment.

Read Ceremony.

"Ceremony" is an intense, yet very enjoyable read. I think the best part of it for me is how it depicts the realness (is that a word?) of the MSR. These are complicated people that fell in love despite themselves and, in doing so, have found their equal and "soul mate." The sex between them is raw and true to life. These are two individuals that trust each other implicitly, so that certainly translates to their sex life. "Ceremony" does a great job of exploring these issues and showcasing the beauty that is their relationship. I definitely recommend it.
