out_there: B-Day Present '05 (Kingsman: Harry's Headlines by Misbegott)
Both are Harry/Eggsy and both made me happy. Firstly, we have a nice insight into Harry's past:

Summary:

Harry Hart has seventeen years worth of mistakes.


-


Of all the mistakes he made, this is the one he regrets the most.



I like the Harry voice here, and there are some pieces of dialogue that work perfectly for me. I like stories that make the Harry/Eggsy vibe feel obvious and right (I should be able to explain that better, but it's early morning and I can't.)

Second story is much longer, and is more of a complete example of "this is how you do amnesia trope with plot". I liked Eggsy and amnesia-Harry, but more than that, I really liked the background of Kingsman and the Merlin department and how carefully the author had thought about how different areas of Kingsman see each other. (The support department's attitude about agents cracked me up, much like the idea of Finance truly holding the strings to the organisation.) It's a well fleshed out world and very easy to read:

Additional Tags: That postcanon fic where Harry is alive after all, but has amnesia, because of convenient Valentine-related reasons, and Eggsy isn't entirely pleased at being kept out of the loop, NOTE: MOST OF THIS FIC IS T-RATED, Amnesia, More eco-terrorism
Summary:

“Eggsy, I really don’t think-“ Merlin began, and stopped, because at that very moment, Eggsy walked right into a lamp post.

Across the street, at a sidewalk corner cafe, reading a paper, sandwich part-eaten on a plate, sleek, long legs crossed neatly under the table, was Harry Hart.
