Claim: The Professionals – Bodie/Doyle
Title: Harlequin Airs
Author: Ellis Ward
Characters: Bodie, Doyle, Cowley, Others
Prompt: 02: AU
Rating: NC-17
Length: epic
Brief summary: There are so many fabulous Pros AU fics to choose from that this was a particularly hard prompt to try and match, but in the end it had to be Harlequin Airs. As soon as I flicked on the link and re-read the first sentence I was sucked right back into the universe. Doyle works for CI5, having had a previous career as a trapeze artist, and so when Cowley needs someone to go undercover at Circus Sergei he is the obvious choice. He meets Bodie, who also works the trapeze, and has to decide exactly where the man fits into the IRA operation he has been sent to investigate. The author writes beautifully, the plot is brilliantly conceived, the characterisation spot on, and the whole thing reeks of sawdust and magic…
