Slash is one of my indulgent pleasures - reading, I've never attempted to write it! - but so many M/E slash pairings are fraught with unlikelihood. The upside of that is that for me an author has to work really hard to make many pairings convincing - which means that some of the best slash is just brilliant writing. A list of fics that slash, with care.

It's all about the emotions. Unbearably intense, managing to remain pretty well I/C, and acknowledging the central problem of this particular relationship: "nothing has changed..."

A Patchwork of Jewels: “ …the Perilous Realm itself, and the air that blows in it. I will not attempt to define that, nor to describe it directly. It cannot be done. Faërie cannot be caught in a net of words; for it is one of its qualities to be indescribable, though not imperceptible…” Humor or romance, First Age or Fourth, Eru or Orcs, Valinor or Angband, it doesn’t matter, as long as the ‘air of Faërie’ blows though them—as long as they’re literary gems.
