New story: "Sincerely, L. Cohen"

[resonant]

Having spent a little time paddling around in the shallow shores of fandoms that are merely small, I have now set out into the dark and chilly waters of fandoms that don't exist at all. So I've just posted a new story based on Leonard Cohen's song "Famous Blue Raincoat."

Come on! If you either Google the lyrics or go to Youtube and watch a video of a performance (I like the live one from German television), in three and a half minutes you will be in possession of the entire canon of this fandom. Who else can promise you that?

I always tell you the truth. I can't seem to help it.

Thanks to astolat for beta, clothing analysis, and providing the title.

I'm so glad this now exists! I love this song. (I remember way back in Smallville days, I had idle thoughts about how the song could possibly apply to Lionel Luthor and his old friend Morgan.)

But the real treat is how this inhabits the universe of the song, and the characters are clearly themselves. Well done with the tricky job of keeping the narrator's voice while switching to this form from a letter in lyrics.

Leonard Cohen is a multifandom inspiration, isn't he? Glad you liked it!
