Title: "Evening Star"
Author: Filigree
Characters: Klaus, Dorian
Prompt: 25. Kink.
Rating: NC-17
Length: epic
Brief summary: There's a lot I like about this fic. But mostly, there's phone sex. Because Klaus is so... stuffy, this is what counts for kink in the Eroica fandom. And it's a very enjoyable change of pace.

Title: "Calamity is Virtue’s Opportunity"
Author: Sandy K. Herrold
Characters: Klaus, Dorian
Prompt: 03. Angst.
Rating: NC-17
Length: epic
Brief summary: The interesting part of this fic is how Klaus and Dorian circle each other. Dorian, by trying to help, only pushs Klaus further away. Klaus, by making excuses, only hurts Dorian. Leading to quite a bit of angst, that is only partially resolved by the end. Very intriguing fic.

Title: "Peripeteia"
Author: Sylvia
Characters: Klaus, Dorian
Prompt: 11. Character Study.
Rating: NC-17
Length: epic
Brief summary: I found the idea that Klaus had been abused as a child a telling character detail. It would make sense for who the character is and how he behaves. This story also has the requisite healing done between himself and Dorian, which I thought was tastefully done and not overly sappy. Always appreciated in stories such as these. Overall, a very good story about Klaus.

Title: "Brother of the Sun, Brother of the Moon"
Author: K. L. Fidelius and Countess Grey
Characters: Klaus, Dorian
Prompt: 31. Discovery
Rating: NC-17
Length: epic
Brief summary: I like that this story works as a discovery fic on 2 levels: one being the archaeological find connected to Peruvian sun and moon gods. The second being the obvious unresolved issues between Klaus and Dorian. The way the fic plays out just worked for me. Action-packed, good times.

Title: "Heaven's Fools"
Author: BT
Characters: Dorian, Klaus, Kit
Prompt: 27. Original Character.
Rating: NC-17
Length: epic
Brief summary: I think it's interesting to look at Dorian and Klaus (particularly Dorian) through a third party. Especially through the eyes of someone a bit young and innocent. Which Kit certainly is. You gain particular insights into the characters that you wouldn't normally get in a story. "Heaven's Fools" is then a great piece of character study, with the original character becoming just as interesting as the characters we already know and love.
