Fandom: The A-Team (2010)
Ship: B.A. Baracus/H.M. Murdock
Medium: Fic
Length: 14,440 words
Rating: Teen
My Tags: drama, humour, happy ending, getting together, misunderstanding, touch, trauma, case/mission, fight/breakup, making up, first kiss (ship), first time (ship)
Author's Summary: In which Murdock is jumpy, BA is an idiot, Face is unhelpful, Hannibal is a troll, and there's an inevitable happy ending.
Excerpt:
This is my favourite kind of misunderstanding story, where no one's jumping to unreasonable conclusions or missing something obvious. They're just not at the right stage of their relationship yet for the truth to be evident, until the misunderstanding happens and gives them the opportunity to learn more about each other and get closer. This is a sweet fic where B.A. notices that Murdock flinches when he touches him, tries to fix the situation by being less gruff with him, and inadvertently makes things worse for a little while. It does a great job of balancing Murdock's more whimsical eccentricities with some elements of more grounded trauma, paints a lovely picture of who B.A. is as a person, and really makes the most of the ship's premise of two characters who communicate and show love in very different ways somehow really working together.

Author's Summary: In which Murdock is jumpy, BA is an idiot, Face is unhelpful, Hannibal is a troll, and there's an inevitable happy ending.
Excerpt:
"Are you dying?" Murdock demanded, blocking his way.
"What?" he asked, trying to figure out where Murdock got that from for a moment, before realizing that he'd be there all night if he kept at it. "No."
Murdock didn't look convinced. "Are you sick?"
He didn't say, "Yeah, sick of you, fool," which he thought showed remarkable restraint on his part. Instead, he repeated, "No."
"Are you a Skrull?" Murdock asked, peering at him suspiciously. "Because if you are, I want the real B.A. back. You can have Face, instead."
"I ain't a pod person, either," he growled, and was about to ask what the hell was wrong with him and what the hell was a Skrull, when a guy bumped past Murdock, and he flinched away. The irritation drained out of him, and was replaced with horror.
He'd broken Murdock.
