I've had a brilliant time reccing in the small-but-perfectly-formed Lewis fandom this month. And even though it's tiny I've barely scratched the surface of the authors and stories that are available. If I've piqued your interest at all please go and check the fandom out for yourself (fantastic fandom masterlist, Lewis at the AO3). I'm handing the keys to the van back but hopefully someone else will take Lewis out for a drive soon.
Why this must be read:
This sublime and humane story seems the perfect way to finish. Lewis slowly lets his grief at Val's death go, and slowly, gently, Hathaway's place in his life grows. Beautifully written, mature, thoughtful, and full of the kindness, insight and compassion that characterizes Lewis and Hathaway. Just very very lovely.
The week before Robbie left for the Virgin Islands, he finally went into Val's cupboard and took out her clothes. He saved a couple of pieces – a blouse she'd especially liked that Lyn might want someday, her wedding dress – but everything else had gone to Oxfam. All of her other things – jewelry, books, the half-finished journal of poetry she'd kept in the bedside drawer – had been packed up with the rest of the flat, his possessions mingled with hers as though they were leaving together.
