I started going through the HL stories today, and while that particular one is still in my future -- saved as a likely dessert to sweeten the others, just in case they're sour -- I've dipped into and backed out of a few, and so far commented on just one.

If you have any most-particular recommendations from this year's entries, stories that I shouldn't miss, please let me know?

(My tastes just don't align with the majority of the fandom, unfortunately for me. I adore HL as it was up through "Eye for an Eye," love it dearly as it was through "Homeland," and remain happily enthralled through "One Minute to Midnight," but at "Prophecy," something went horribly wrong between me and my show and never recovered. I love adult four-century-old Duncan; I can't stand childish four-century-old Duncan.)
