Summary: Perry gets a disturbing call about Harry -- from the LA County Morgue. It has all got to be a mistake, hasn't it?
Review:
The KKBB fandom is an... interesting one. I have one, major, disagreement with the fandom. Most of the writers seem to think Harry is completely inept, weak and all around useless. I often have to wonder if we were even watching the same movie.
This story however, while Harry is not in a position to help himself, does not portray him as bumbling fool. That in and of itself makes the story worth reading.
The heavy angst at the beginning leads to a tension filled race against the clock, leaving you wondering if Perry will figure everything out in time and manage to avoid the obvious trap or if he'll be too late.

Review:
Perry has two rules for Harry: do not take cases and do not touch his guns. Harry never has been very good at following the rules.
This story isn't perfect (it feels rushed at the end, possibly due to Yuletide time constraints) but Harry and Perry's voices are spot-on, Harry's narrative is fantastic, and the chemistry between Harry and Perry is smoking. Ideal for folks who want a fast-paced, entertaining, and exceedingly hot KKBB fic.

Review:
It all begins at an LA party (of course), where Harry overhears a couple of guys speculating about why Perry's being so nice (for Perry) to Harry. Unsurprisingly, their conclusion involves sex. Which isn't at all the reason, but now that the idea has been planted in Harry's head, he just can't seem to get it go...
The relationship between Harry and Perry is one of the most difficult to pull off correctly and one of the most rewarding when it's done right and it is absolutely perfect here. Harry is his usual insecure, babbling self and Perry is his usual sarcastic, not-quite-the-bastard-he-wants-people-to-believe self, and the two of them together are funny and snarky and irresistably charming. Plus, the opening monologue is even better than the movie's! Just wonderful all around.

Review:
After a few months of dating, Harmony sits Harry down and explains that she's polyamorous. Harry does not take this well. Thus begins the long slide from Harry/Harmony to Harry/Perry.
This story has one of the best Harry the Narrator voices ever. The other characters are good as well, especially Harmony (who usually doesn't come across well in fanfic, but who is fantastic in this), but Harry's voice is simply brilliant. Add in Perry showing his slightly-less-assholish side (you know, the side that makes him getting with Harry a happy ending, rather than a guarantee of a lifetime of verbal abuse), a cute case or two, and some great writing and you have a top-notch and surprisingly meaty KKBB fic.
