Recs and Reviews

Keelywolfe's work is a great example of how stories written by an author with a decided preference for one of the characters can nevertheless satisfy readers with a decided preference for the other. This is her third recommendation, from a raft of solid, sex- and angst-filled stories in the fandom. Resisting Temptations has a deftness of touch, and a quirkiness of characterisation, that has always made it stand out even in relation to the rest of her work: a year after I read it, I wrote her a 40k piece of feedback on it, because there was just so much to say about the way she developed the emotions between Obi and Qui. Lucky for you, I shall spare you all that. :)

Basic plot: Obi-Wan's big mouth manages to land himself and his master in a situation where they must have sex in public (just to show that the hoary old plots are still the best ones). Just how will they manage it - and how will it affect their relationship afterwards? [...] My only dissatisfaction with this story is with the last third, which doesn't quite fulfill the promise of the earlier sections. But it's hard to imagine an ending that would have, given the level of writing which precedes it.
