What makes this a gem: I'm starting this off with mentioning that this fic is told in the first person.
And before anyone starts running away, I need to emphasize that this is THE fic I rec to anyone to prove that first person can be done masterfully, wonderfully, and gracefully in fanfiction.
Not only is the POV written in such a loyal way to exploit characterization (as, in my opinion, first person should be written) - especially for characters that, at the point of being written, didn't even have canon personalities - but there is a blending of naivety and maturity within the prose that makes this read like a real, if not slightly quirky, teenage perspective. Additionally, the plot itself is handled well and doesn't force itself at you. This fic feels like it just guides you in slowly with its words and before you know it, you've read so much already.
But that's on the technical stuff - content-wise, this story is also fascinating, and just memorable and different. Words cannot explain how much I adore this fic.
