Polishing Shoes by T. Verano (G)

Author Website: (or a link to where more of their fic is archived): Pleasance
Why this must be read:
This lovely story is an account of Blair and Jim's first Christmas together - well, not-Christmas, really. See, Jim likes his peace and quiet at the holidays, and Blair figures the best present he can give him is to clear out a few days. No problem, right? Except when everything goes horribly wrong...
As in most of her stories, T. has Blair's voice down perfectly, both internal and external. And there's no mystery as to why this story won Best Gen Short Story for 2008 in the LMFAs.
ETA: Updated links to new site (Thanks, T.!). Also, here's a link to a podfic of Polishing Shoes; a follow-up story, Discerning the Magi's Gift bylaurie_ky; and a podfic of same.
