Why this must be read:

I confess I've been driving in a great big circle this month. We started with an angsty Bloodbath fic, and now another angsty Bloodbath fic is our last stop before the garage. Dale Gardener is a newer writer in our fandom, and I hope she sticks around for a long time. This fic is new, and I love its hurt Starsky and comforting Hutch, but I especially love the way Hutch seems even more hurt than his partner, more devastated by Starsky's experience, more haunted by things he can't say aloud. Starsky holds it together better -- for a while. Dark and creepy, but hey, it's Bloodbath.

Nice variety this month -- great scenic route! You might want to tag this before you sign off for the month, so that people don't miss this particular stop on the road.

That would be a good idea, wouldn't it? :D Thanks for reminding me!
