  • Pairing(s): Dirk Gently/Todd Brotzman, Bart Curlish & Ken Adams, Amanda Brotzman & The Rowdy 3, Tina Tevetino & Sherlock Hobbs, Tina Tevetino/Farah Black, Farah Black & Eddie Black...there's a lot of love in here.
  • Summary: The surprise wasn’t that all the lights but one flickered out when Ken and Mr. Priest left Bart alone so they could go have a conference about what huge jerks they were or whatever. That kind of shit was to be expected, a no-brainer.

It was that the security door didn’t shut, and that the chair across from Bart turned into a girl.

  • Comments: Hits every closing note with precision, and the deftly glossed Todd/Dirk sex is perfect. Bart and Ken get better than canon dishes. Tina gets to pine attractively. Lydia Spring even makes an appearance.

  • Pairing(s): Dirk Gently/Todd Brotzman.
  • Summary: Todd goes into a bath bomb store to get a present for Amanda and meets an overeager sales assistant. Self-examination, and - dare I say it - romance ensues. A bath store AU where Dirk is an employee at a shop that is definitely not Lush and Todd is a grouchy regular customer.
  • Comments: This fic is absolutely delightful in every way, swinging deftly between funny and charming and heart-achingly sad. Bonus points for Panto and Amanda as great secondary characters and a lot of lovely references to Queer Eye.
