Justin and Gabrielle in the Shadow of the Gods, 1

[xie_xie_xie]

It's true. I have written a sequel to Justin and Gabrielle in a Bottle. There are no words to convey how very, very sorry I am to do this to you.

For those who were spared the horror of missed the first part of this story, you'll find it here. All thirteen chapters. Seriously. I should be ashamed.

This time I can share the blame, because

The two women sat there and contemplated Justin’s severe post-traumatic stress disorder, brought on by being thrown out of the house by his parents when they found out he was gay, then being drugged and kidnapped by a corrupt police official and his psychotic, immortal assistant, who activated an ancient spell to put Justin in a bottle with Gabrielle, and then used Justin in a ritual sacrifice intended to destroy Xena. Although rescued at the last minute by the three of them, and safe now in Brian’s loft, the boy had some issues.

Um, just a few issues.

Ares! Yay! I adore Ares! (and am still so sad over the loss of Kevin)

[xie_xie_xie]

I get so sad when I think about Kevin Smith, he was so amazing as Ares, and a wonderful man.

I had to bring Ares into this story. For ummm, dramatic purposes.

[lunachickk]

It was such a tragic loss.

Any chance of a Brian/Justin/Ares sandwich?

[xie_xie_xie]

My beta put you up to that, didn't she?

tolerant

[firehead30]

A gorgeous Greek god (not metaphorical but actual) without his shirt

WHY must you make me suffer thusly!

Explicit lesbian sex
I suppose I could tolerate that yummylicious ohh goody....more more more

Sympathetic portrayals of Lindsay and Melanie (but no sex)
HUH what....you mean like they are supposed to be liked....*kisses you*

A few rather gruesome plot points
well, maybe ok

Plot. Yes, PLOT! Xie wrote something with a PLOT! huh well ok, if you insist

I also promise Brian and Justin will have sex prior to the thirteenth chapter. I have learned my lesson.

ABOUT FUCKING TIME

I was tolerant last time...not sure I could abide the lack of appropriate fucking the second time.

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Goody goody more metaphysical musings while contemplating the exestential and spiritual comlexities of the human conition.

Re: tolerant

[xie_xie_xie]

I'm going to really try to sex this one up. I promise.

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

a few issues... yeah, sadly, they're dealing with justin's PTSD in a more reasonable way than on the show.

god i love this. crack of the best kind. more later, i'm writing.

[xie_xie_xie]

I knew you'd like that, I know exposition gets you hot.

[epicallytired]

but you knocked it all out in one paragraph, and it only made my teeth itch a tiny bit, and then i was laughing so i forgot about the teeth itching.

[xie_xie_xie]

I meant to write a lot more exposition but I forgot.

[adusty53795]

Xie, the fact that you are continuing this is SO not tragic. It made me squee slightly a lot.

I do have a question, though. Did we eliminate Callisto completely in the last segment, or will we get to see her (oh god please) in this one, too? (No I don't drool over her or anything, what would make you say that?!)

[xie_xie_xie]

She's alive and in the bottle with Stockwell. All I can say is, Gabrielle was periodically and unpredictably released from the bottle for 2000 years.

The rest remains to be seen!

and enhance her already world-class set of abdominal muscles

Guh.

Is that even possible?

I. Love. This.

All of it!

[xie_xie_xie]

Is that even possible?

No, but let her keep her dreams.

[roc_abs]

No, but let her keep her dreams.

Kind of my dreams as well.

No word from M.

::: pace, pace, pace :::

I'll be lucky if we hear anything this week, I think ;)
