Fade to Black (PG13) by Helene
Fandom: YAMI NO MATSUEI
Pairing: None so far
Author on LJ:
brightwanderer (writing) and
childofatlantis
Author Website: http://www.brightwanderer.net/
Why this must be read:
HP fans will know this author from the fast-becoming-a-classic post-OotP Sirius+Remus story, Beyond the Veil. Touted as the first in what will be an AU series, this stand-alone story follows the newly deceased Kurosaki Hisoka into his first case as a shinigami. There are many mysteries in this well-plotted, action-filled fic: why is Tatsumi in so much pain? Why is he fighting so much with Hisoka's new partner - Watari? Who is the mysterious person that Hisoka runs into on the street? What is the significance of the empty desk Hisoka takes? The characters are a little darker than many fangirls like to write them, but nicely in-character, and Hisoka's first case is heartwrenching. I devoured this one greedily.
