J/D slash fic rec: Paian, Come What May

[innocent_lex]

This is an Aliens Made Them Do It fic, so there's probably a warning right there for some. Excellent writing (as always from Paian, who hits the character spot dead on over and over), real detail, and this is really a two-pronged approach about character (very much about character first) and about sex. ETA: Yeah, okay, coming back to this to say it's not 'about sex', there is a lot of detail in the sex, but it's about a whole raft of other things. At the moment it stops at part 34, but it's one of those fics where I really, really want to know what happens next.

It's written in LJ comments. Scroll down to find the first part and follow the links through. I'm probably making it sound hard to read, but it actually isn't.

Excellent stuff.

Well-written but:
a) it's a WIP and I wanna know how it finishes dammit
b) there are awkward changes of POV
c) I had to skip a lot of the explicit stuff because it actually got boring

As you said, excellent character stuff, and the parts where she focuses on that are much much more interesting and engaging (for me) than the detailed descriptions of sex.

And maybe it's just me, but I did find it quite hard to find all the different parts, which didn't help the flow of the story.
