Title: The One with the Power (Powerless)

Author: glacis

Canon: Angel

Pairing: Angel/Lindsey McDonald; side of Cordelia Chase/Charles Gunn

Rating: Explicit [NC-17]

Word Count: 16,314

Summary: Angel learns the unexpected consequences of not cleaning one's weapon before maiming one's opponent. Lindsey adapts.

Recommendation: I've been bit by the nostalgia bug once again, and this time it is Langel. These two were always so fraught but I was always ultimately disappointed with the writers choices for Lindsey's character. Having him just regrow his hand sounds like something that could have happened to him though, and I can't say I don't prefer this to what happened to Cordy. She deserved better.
