Title: Gruff 'n' Grim and X-Ray-Ted
Author: HG
Link to story: Gruff 'n' Grim and X-Ray-Ted (both require membership of Yahoo group ProsLib).

So, I wouldn't normally call myself someone who had a big thing for teddy bear fic, but these were HG, so when I found them over at ProsLib (and btw, is anyone else not getting ProsLib emails, even if their settings all seem to be fine?) I had to read them on that basis alone.

And I totally found myself laughing, and feeling a bit warm and fuzzy, and laughing more... the bit after Ray reads the book! Just - heeeeeee!

Yes, there are teddy bears, but there's also Bodie and Doyle, and as HG is so good at doing, they are perfectly themselves, totally together and just... oh, go and read! I promise it'll be worth it - feel good fic at its finest. *g*

Oh I loved these stories; they are just soooo cute, arent they? I want to snuggle the bears up together :-)

I would rather have these ficlets than any that show Doyle as an Elf/Cat/whatever, quite frankly.

Heee! Yeah, these teddy bear stories beat the elf and cat stories hollow. Although I have to say that I like Arduinna Finn's elf stories - have you read them? Lighter-footed Than the Fox and... erm... the one that was the sequel? Oh, and The Hag's Moggy-Next-Door cat stories! See, just sometimes someone does something dreadful just beautifully - it's everyone who does the dreadful dreadfully that's the problem for me... If you know what I mean. *g*

Oh I agree with you, and yes, I love Arduinna Finn's stories. Have to go and reread The Hag's one as I cant really remember that one :-)
