Someone To Watch Your Back by Belatrix Carter (NC17)

Fandom: BLAKES 7
Pairing: Blake/Avon
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] astrogirl2
Author Website: none, as far as I know
Why this must be read:

Well, it's my third rec, and so I thought 'time for the porn!' Heh.

This, as it happens, is absolutely top-standard porn. Blake and Avon have actually distinguishable characteristics and behaviour - no trying to figure out who did what just by references to hair colour here, thankfully. It's miles away from the kind of bad NC17 that makes you think 'just take it to a freaking porn site already'; it actually has a sense of context, and it's well written and everything. And all these things add up to making it about eighty seven billion times hotter than just about all the other smut out there, and I say this as someone who doesn't normally buy Avon as never having been with a man before Blake. It's good, people.

It's such good smut, in fact, that I feel no compuctions whatsoever about having recced the same author twice in such quick succession. (None, I tell you. Mwahahah!)

*evil grin* Funnily enough, I wouldn't even call this story porn or PWP. It's such a strong *character piece* in the end, more than just smut for smut's sake. The hot sex is just a bonus. And that is so human, so tentative and a little clumsy and and and and WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH, Belatrix is a goddess. She claims that she finds it hard to get inside Blake's head, and I'm just boggled, considering how well she writes him in this one (and others).

B7 iconage? *bats eyelashes in a Carnell-esque way, glances at Photoshop* Why, what sort did you have in mind?
