Sleep While I Drive (and sequels) by Maayan (and Fialka)
Fandom: FARSCAPE
Pairing: John/Aeryn
Author Website(s): Maayan and Fialka
Why this must be read: These stories absolutely break me. I'll go so far as to say that "Sleep While I Drive" has been my favorite Farscape fic since it was first posted; Maayan uses the concept of "unrealized realities" - universes branching off as a result of wormhole travel - and takes it to the next level. She describes it as "The one where John and Aeryn live happily ever after. Really." Somehow it manages to be both heartbraking and true. "Two is Swinging" is a prequel to "Sleep While I Drive," but read it second. Then Fialka wrote a lovely (and equally poignant) sequel, "Worlds Enough, and Time."
If you like time travel, wormholes, black holes, collapsing universes, epic romance, sacrifice, catharsis...you'll love these stories.
