Site: AO3
Why I am recommending this: I mentioned in one of my earlier recs that I love fics where the Forever characters encounter Henry pre-series. It's canon that Henry and Adam were both in London when Jack the Ripper was active. Henry investigated the case. Adam observed from a distance.
This fic plays with the idea of them meeting back then, before either of them knew of the other's immortality, and does a great job contrasting Henry's earnestness and integrity—which the much-older, cynical Adam dismisses as naivety or an act—and Adam's jaded nature and his fascination with the one thing neither of them can permanently achieve: death. Adam is a complicated character, and he's very difficult to get right. I think this fic nails it.
