Pros Big Bang: The Palest Ink by JGL

Title: The Palest Ink
Author nameJGL
Artist name: <[livejournal.com profile] cloudless_9193 
Genre: Slash
Characters/Pairing: Bodie/Doyle
Word count: 29,741
Warnings: NA 

Summary: After Doyle is killed in what appears to be a random accident, Bodie attempts to come to terms with all that was left unresolved between them. Then, miraculously, Doyle is discovered alive. But is the man claiming to be Ray Doyle actually a clever imposter? 

 Notes: Thanks and three very enthusiastic cheers to callistosh65 and przed for all the work they put into making the first ever Big Bang happen. My heartfelt appreciation to Cloudless_9193 who created such a beautiful illustration. And sincerest thanks to my dear friends Angelfish (for the Brit-check) and to C. (for the beta). Any errors which have since crept in are due to supernatural forces -- or possibly me.

Gripping plot wonderfully told. Almost reminded me of HRs stories in it's vulnerable parts. Love the dialogue Firle pointed out above. Great moments. And the small things you suddenly detect- more greyish hair (Doyle's grey temples are so damn sexy!!!), wrinkles, hidden by the look of love until then. So true.
Although Bodie slept with an imposter, he didn't recognize it's not him- disappointing or it's a super twin imposter! :D
Just a detail: The moment when Bodie got the information that Doyle would disappear, out of CI5, there I would have expected more emotional reaction from Bodie. He's been patient, he waits, did what he was told, and Doyle would just disappear without telling him a word. My stomach would churn, and I would fume a moment later after all he's endured.
Thank you very much for taking part!

Those restrained British types!
As a German on the other hand I'm a model of extensive sensitivity of course :D

Thing is, I'm a read head: Restrained? What's restrained? XD
