Yuletide rec

I think I've just found my favourite Christmas present so far, and it wasn't even intended for me.

Blood and Whiskey" by an as-yet-unrevealed author. It's Tombstone slash. For the OTP that nobody on the internet ever writes. And it's utterly wonderful, chock full of historical detail and with a Wyatt voice that's a thing of beauty--blunt and straightforward, but with just enough formality in places to remind you that yes, this is a nineteenth century man speaking.

Damn, I'm gonna have to write that essay for ship_manifesto now.

[Edit] [livejournal.com profile] pixyofthestyx, get yourself over there and check it out. And scope out last year's Tombstone story, too.
