If ever there was a fic about the Beast, this is it, omg!!1 So raw and primal and the actual sucker-punch saved till the end where it counts.

anniesj &
casirafics &
circe_tigana are also brilliant. My mouth is still gaping, I think. And if Sirius Black wasn't born to practice criminal mischief, then call me Sally. Oh my gahd, the sheer beautiful violence in this.

furiosity's `Like I Don't Even Know You', and it hit the spot. I didn't know I knew, but Eminem is just perfect, songfic or not, and the violence is beautiful and the hate is pure love, which is definitely how it should be. `Deep Inside My Veins' & its sequel also made me smile.
