Day 05: List three fics that make you cry, every time you read them.

This fandom is extremely good at evoking emotion in its readers :) Oddly enough, this was the easiest one so far. As always, in no particular order:

1. The Price That Life Exacts by [livejournal.com profile] cathalin - I wasn't sure I would even like this fic at first, since right off the bat we learn that John has had a kid with a Pegasus native. But oh, the emotions in this fic - I sympathized with Rodney so fucking much in this fic, felt his loss like it was my own, his pain at the idea of having a constant reminder of John around. The scene where Rodney watches John's tape of his last will and testament never fails to make me sob. Beautiful, heartbreaking, and so good.

2. Dearest Series by [livejournal.com profile] lavvyan - The first installment always makes me cry, especially the last paragraph. And even the sequel, Precious, makes me tear up at the end. It's a fascinating 'verse, and I always wish it was this long epic, but it's wonderful as it is. I'm really grateful she didn't keep it as a oneshot.

3. Where We Ought To Be by [livejournal.com profile] wojelah - I like Carson. I don't think he's Leading Man material, but I was fond of him as a supporting character, as a good friend. I'm aware that a large portion of the fandom thought he was creepy, but I though he was sweet. This fic is covers Carson's final journey home, accompanied by John and Rodney, after the events in Sunday. Carson's family was interesting, John and Rodney's interactions were wonderful, and I cried several times. Plus, I really like the scene where John and Rodney finally kiss ;)

nihilvanum's words:

my dear
the problem is that
you love him so much
you would allow him
to drag you all the way to hell
if it meant you could
hold his hand
on the way down
