recsfest day 6

Today's Clex rec is [livejournal.com profile] romanyg's Subterfuge . Post-Transference, Lex thinks he can manipulate Clark into revealing his secrets by convincing him that he already has. But in the end, Lex is the one making revelations. Romany does a masterful job of tracing the subtle shifts in the power dynamics between Lex and Clark; I love that about all her stories, but especially this one.

Oh, wow, thank you for including me in your recfest! And I thank you especially for reccing "Subterfuge", that's not one of my more popular ones. But I'm glad that you like it!

*blushes mightily*

I love your work, so I'm happy to recommend it. I can't really describe it, but you bring such a different sensibility to your Clex pieces --I love your angle on the characters. And I have to say I'm surprised "Subterfuge" isn't more popular, maybe because it's my personal favorite.

*blushes even more* Thank you. I've had arguments with my beta (although it's her job to say 'whoa') regarding my take on the characters, especially Clark, so to hear that you like my characterization makes me very happy. *is happy*

I'd have to say popularity-wise, "Subterfuge" is in the middle so I can't complain. But I'm glad that it works for you!

And I should thank you, in general, for doing this month-long fest. I've found some fics that I've missed.
