Author’s summary: Nelan goes to see the Matchmaker.
Why This Must Be Read: I love stories with a sensitive, loving outsider POV on Rodney, and this is one by the amazing lavvyan is one of the best. It’s beautifully written and an absolute joy to read. It starts like a fairy tale—neatly woven, with lovely, heartwarming world-building—and quickly adds the shadow of something horrible that has happened. You’ll get to see how Rodney has adapted, still being his unique, unmistakable self.
This story will get under your skin, break your heart a little, and make you feel deeply for Rodney, seen through the eyes of a wonderful, sweet OC. It’s an outstanding piece, and there's also an equally outstanding podfic by cookiemom6067 that adds beautifully to the experience.
I can promise you a heart-wrenching, deeply moving, yet joyful happy ending.
And one thing: make sure to have some tissues nearby. Trust me — you'll need them!
