A Happy New Year by Nancy is a wonderful Rundown fic (Beck/Travis) set in Nancy's fascinating Romanology universe. (Basically, it's a world in which Rome never fell and slavery never fell out of fashion.) Feeling a bit lonesome, Beck decides to purchase a slave. Of course, being Beck, he goes looking for the trouble slaves and discovers Travis. A battered and broken Travis, but still, Beck feels a connection. This story made me very happy, as I love a protective Beck.
