Rec: People of the Universe by Carmen Sandiego

Story: People of the Universe
Author: Carmen Sandiego
Rating: All Ages
Author's summary: They talk under a dark sky and know it's not forever.
Characters/Pairings: Romana II/Susan
Warnings: none
Word Count: 872

Recced because: This is another tiny story that manages to be packed tight with ideas, images, and beautiful characterization. It's a gorgeous pairing, and the voices and mood are just right. Once a year, in the cold, the two women meet: their discussions about the past, the future, and all the possibilities in between illuminate each character in an understated but very moving way. It's a lovely piece of work.
