Recs and Reviews

This story combines some of my most favourite elements. Action, plot, romance and hurt/comfort with emphasis on the comfort part. Most hurt/comfort stories spend a lot of time and space on the hurt, and only the resolution part of the fic on the comfort. In "Good", most of the owies happen off-screen, but Obi-Wan's healing process takes up most of the fic. The characterisation is spot-on for me, I adore her Qui-Gon and her Obi-Wan is neither whiny nor weepy, but a strong man who just wants to get his life back.

The plot is failry classic, but grippingly done with unforseen twists and turns and a wonderful romance at the core of it. It's simply a good, long, well-spun, entertaining, heart-wrenching, and heartwarming, story. I read it through in one sitting and didn't want to put it down once.

There was talk of a sequel and Binky posted the first few chapters. Also, she wrote a cute little PWP companion piece to the story. I hope she finishes the sequel, I for one would love to read it.[1]

Oh my god. This hits the kinks in a major way. It's long--very long. And poor Obi-Wan goes through hell both physically and mentally, and Qui-Gon suffers his fair share of agony, as well. But this is TPM, so of course there's a light at the end of the tunnel.[2]
