Oz/Law and Order: Special Victims Unit (PG-13)
This was supposed to be posted yesterday but... See what I mean? ;)
Title: Gift Horses
Pairing: Beecher/Stabler
Author on LJ:
rileyc
Author Website: Riley Cannon Fodder
Why this must be read: Recently, four Oz/SVU crossovers were written; three on
oz_magi, by
desert_rifka,
mandysbitch and Aleph_abyssal, plus another one by Aleph_Abyssal; and they all deal brilliantly with the problem of having the main SVU character played by Chris Meloni who also plays Keller in Oz. Hence the temptation of a crossover -and its difficulty.
Before these recent -and soon to be recorded- crossovers, two fics had been written on the subject. One of them, very long was never finished. The second one is
rileyc's fic. Both have a common point: they deal with the idea of a dream.
I absolutely love how RileyC captures the ambiguity of the moment, the uncertainty, the growing doubt in Beecher's mind that reality isn't always what it seems. And it's RileyC so it's both hot and well written.
Toby's smile wavered, though, he fumbled the papers he was stuffing back in the briefcase, that sense of dislocation stronger now as a thousand images flashed through his head in a split second, all of it embodied in that walk, in a name.
Toby looked at him, the line of his back and the set of his shoulders, and whispered the name - "Chris."
He wavered, stopped, turned part way back.
Toby repeated it, stronger this time. "Chris?"
He looked at him, something haunted now in the depths of his eyes. "Toby... Remember what they say about gift horses?"
