Why this is a must read: 

Right off the bat, I have to say I'm usually not a fan of cross dressing fic.  So I usually pass most of them by.  The ones that do make me pause and give a second look have an unusual hook that makes me glad I'm not too stuck in my ways.

Anyhoo, with Romeo and Juliet we get a few things that I love in Yu Yu Hakusho fic.  Kurama being his sly, fox-demony self, Yusuke intimidating classmates at will while trying not to let his curiosity get the better of him, and humor.  The way the story is written has this tongue-in-cheek kind of humor all through it and makes the whole thing a fun read.

"Come by and help me run lines?" Kurama asks softly, after explaining - unnecessarily, but Yusuke's not about to tell him that - the situation with his school play. Something about a Shakespeare and teenagers and death - as if Yusuke needs to be any more familiar with that.
