God, I hope I'm not overstating it, lol. candle_beck was an utter genius, and they just vanished. Not uncommon, in fandom, I know, but it makes me suddenly think of others that I miss - samdonne, eliade, hackthis, ethrosdemon, are just a few.
Anyway it occurs to me that I should also recommend Rats' Alley, by auburn. I really liked her other TW fic, Raised by Wolves, a crossover with Criminal Minds, which does inventive and rational things with canon but could have used a beta. It really situates the action in a real, physical world, too - it has a tremendous sense of place, for me, that is absent in a lot of fiction, and I think that's one of the reasons I loved it. Of course, it also does a reordering of canon in a way that makes it hang together more naturally than the seat-of-pants writing that the actual show devolved into.
