Why This Must Be Read:
This is a story about missed chances and slow reveals. Living together on earth, John falls ever more in love with Rodney as the story progresses, but never acts on it; the result is a story that straddles the slash/gen line with strong sense of emotional intimacy right through to the bittersweet end. The language is fabulous, loneliness and isolation permeating the whole story in a way that is just simply beautiful.
