Why this must be read:

The real Ray Vecchio is undercover in Las Vegas and sees Victoria.

If that sentence doesn't make you go 'ooh,' here's the long reason: The most fascinating thing to happen off-screen in Due South is Ray Vecchio's stint undercover as The Bookman in Las Vegas. One of the most fascinating things to happen on-screen in Due South is Victoria crashing back into Fraser's life. Juxtaposing these two events provides a stark look inside the mind of a hardened Ray Vecchio, his feelings for Fraser, and what he will still do for friendship.



Lonnie scooted back, and he opened the door wider, letting Hall and Oates woo-woo into the desert. "We're going to have a private talk, me and her. In case you're still not listening, I said private." They both nodded. "Wait here till I come back."

He didn't help her out of the car, but she made a smooth job of it anyway, twisting and sliding so her skirt rode up over her long stockinged legs. He told her, "Walk," and she headed out, staggering a little when her spike heels sunk into the sand. He kept a careful few feet away from her, out of kicking range.




Luck

This is one of my favorite Ray Vecchio stories. Kat did such a brilliant job with it. My heart's always ached for him, and this story added a shiver to that ache.
