Why This Must Be Read: If you're looking for long, plotty, almost epic type fic, this would be one well added to your list.

And it has everything to satisfy: rich, nuanced characterizations; insightful explorations of the layers of relationships, both old and new; resolution and evolution to friendships, working relationships, as well as the romantic; professional recognition and saving the world. There is a lifetime in this story, in the way that it affects a person every day, and Sideburns, as well, brings it to a conclusion that leaves the reader able to see the future of that lifetime very clearly.
