Magnificent Seven Fic Rec

[sara_merry99]

I haven't had much time for reading fic lately, what with Real Life Running Rampant around here, but I did sneak a chance yesterday to read a new story that just posted at Blackraptor Adult.

It's called "Not the First Time" by ELG. It's Chris/Vin, Old West. No Vin-speak, spikedluv--well, maybe just a tiny bit, but not much and there's not a lot of

Um - WOW. I had this on my list to read already but - WOW.

Good call, Sara.

And - glad to see you're allowing yourself some distractions from RL!

Yeah, it was a damned *awesome* story!! I'm *so* glad you liked it!

I was such a jitterbox yesterday, I needed a little break, so I read that story while I was at work. ::blush::

it is excellent. I hope that it was distracting for you - I think it would have been for me. Excellent Vin-angst.

Reminds me of something you would write. Actually - NOT IN A PLAGARISTIC SORT OF WAY as these are two completely different stories - it reminds me of "Hawk". Love them both. Love Vin in them both, and love Chris in them both.

Oh, I don't think I could put the sentences together that beautifully, actually. It was just so gloriously *written*. And beautifully angsty. And just...yeah...wonderful!

It was a great distraction and very welcome.

It does have a similar vibe to "Hawk", I can see what you mean there. I adore Chris in her story, even more than I like Chris in mine. :D

I just read that yesterday and am so in awe of it! It's just wonderful and I'm composing an 'OMG that was awesome!' note to the author right now!

Hope all is well and RL isn't treating you too harshly.

"Awe" is absolutely the word. That story just blew me *away* and I loved it!

RL's being more than half a bitch, but I think I'll be out of the woods before *too* horribly much longer and then ready to get back into my life.
