Fandom: Rivers of London
Genre: Friendship
Pairing: Nightingale/OMC
Length: Short (3,892 words)
Admin: rec'd on tvtropes, rec'd on fancake
Author's Summary:
How did Nightingale get photographed lying posed on a map of Soho in a tight black t-shirt, beaming up at the camera?
Review:
This is amazing, not for the premise which is a little silly, but for the perfection of the character voices and for how real the feelings seem. I think Peter's characterization is especially good in this one - the ways in which he makes himself there for Nightingale are really touching. This is following Broken Homes, but of course the shadow of Ettersburg is ever-present in Nightingale's life too but unlike a lot of character pieces with Nightingale hurt/comfort as a theme, this one is really positive because while both Peter and Nightingale are hurting following Bk 4, they demonstrate good coping skills which makes it a nice, hopeful fic.
