Pros Alpha-fic Bingo - A is for At the Admiral Nelson by Georgina Kirrin
Wednesday, 26 January 2022 04:04 pmAt the Admiral Nelson by is in the zine Second Variation on the Theme of Band D from Keynote Press, and is on the ProsLib dvd too. It's by Georgina Kirrin, who I like as a Pros writer, but as I started reading this I realised that I've had this zine for years, but must never have picked it up to read properly!
ETA - And also, of course here on the author's own website!
This is listed in the zine contents page as an AU story, and it's about two young men who frequent a particular pub in London. At first I thought it was a historical AU, but actually I'm not sure it's an AU at all really. It's the lads before they've joined CI5, before they've met, before they've become the men we know and lovingly slash. *g* And they're young, so it's presumably set in the very early 1960s which in some ways is an alternative universe to life now, so... yeah, I guess it is historical!
Whatever it is, it's solid writing and I enjoyed trying to work out how it all fit together, and seeing how the lads were each set in their own directions. Definitely worth the read! *g*
