Why this must be read:

Well, to start off with, I will read anything that Te writes.  She mixes sexy with funny and gets right to the soul of a character in a few words.  Plus, she's damn fly.

"Shower" is one of those slice-of-time vignettes.  Dan's taking a shower, and doing what a million slash writers would have me believe men do every time they shower.  Which is to say, he's busy, and his mind is split between the woman in his kitchen and the man in his fantasies.  But, the hotness will not be denied, a sentiment with which a million several hundred many viewers Danny/Casey slashers will heartily agree. 

It's a story about the juxtaposition of what you have and what you want.  It has fabulous Danny-voice, including

Not that there was anything wrong with chick songs in particular, but a woman who sang them while cooking breakfast for the man she'd spent the night screwing.... It all spoke of potentially dangerous internal conflict.


which screams Sorkin to me.  "Shower" has a great blend of introspection, humor, a little sexiness (cause of the wanking) and Te's usual fun writing style.
