Game of Humanity by Sheila Paulson (G)

Pairing:  none

Why this must be read:
 
Another one from the list of gen stories that the slash fans love to read. Blake and Avon are kidnapped by highly advanced aliens who using living creatures as game pieces, and set down amongst primitives to help them develop. The concept has the potential to be horribly cliched, but in the hands of this writer becomes a wonderful story of friendship.

Absolutely gen, but in its original zine publication (in Probability Square, currently available as a reprint) it was accompanied by some glorious illos by Suzan Lovett, which are popular with slash fans for good reason. The story is available online, as its sequel The Dreamers. Note - spoilers for second season in the first story, and for the final episode in the sequel.
