Recs and Reviews

I have kind of a love/hate thing for this fic. I usually identify much more with Obi-Wan, but this one just makes me feel for Qui-Gon so much. In fact, the first time I read this I walked around in a funk for days. (Too many angst fics in a row.) This one draws you in then hits you with the ouch. There's also a remix of this story by Fishgoat which offers an explanation of why things went down the way they did, but still no happy ending. :([1]

This is neither rollicking nor an adventure, but it is good, so if you want a complete change of pace after 'A Lytell Geste,' here ya go. It's TPM, it's slash, and it's one of those punch-in-the-gut fics I love to hate. 'Nuff said[2]
