"Keepsake" by PFL,/b>, followed by "Isolation" and "Yule" (links in the stories)

PFL is so good at writing trilogies that I couldn't just rec "Keepsake" and stop. Starting at the Silver Jubilee, Bodie remembers how important their partnership has been to him and decdes it's time to leave CI5. Highly recommended.

"The Last (Generic) Bodie and Doyle Story" by IM Adine O'Soar

thecircuitarchive.com/tca/4/thelast.html

I was plleased, in a grumpy way, to see this title declare itself to be the LAST generic B/D story. In general, I don't like meta-fanfic, crackfic, or stories with joke writer-names. (Adine? May I call you Adine? I hope you're a triceratops as that is my favorite kind of O'Soar.) Despite all that, I enjoyed this story. I suppose that were I facing imminebt mass extinction via asteroid, I might write about Doyle turning into a budgie. Maybe. Tentatively recommended.

"The Mad Scientist Strikes" by Anne Higgins

thecircuitarchive.com/tca/archive/0/themad.html

When I first joined the fandom and was reading through the Bodie/Doyle stories on AO3, and I read Anne Higgins' work, I found her characterizatins of Bodie and Doyle quite ... peculiar. If you have not yet read this story and also wondered at how ... feminine ... her Bodie is, this story goes some way towards explaining it. Bodie has to be weepy and irrational about bra decoration and hairstyles to be convincingly female in this story. (Anne is a biological woman, is she not?) I guess I reccommend this.

Pros Bingo Challenge--E and F

E is for Evasive Manoeuvres by PRZed. She is always an author I can rely on to write a story I will enjoy. Bodie trying to hide his feelings for Doyle, and not really doing a very good job.

F is for Four Times Bodie survived and One Time he Didn't by Callisto. This was the five short snippets that have vague parallels, and honestly, I wanted much more of each.
