fic: Alpha Centauri 7.5 -- Mutual Thing

[hth]

Mutual Thing
by Hth
part of the Alpha Centauri series

NOTES AND WHATNOT: I can't finish the freaking series until the new season starts, not so much because I'm afraid canon will screw me up (it always does, so why sweat it?), but because there's stuff coming up that fits so well into what I planned to do with 8 that it would be a crime not to use it. Meanwhile, it occurred to me that at the end of 7, I said some things were going to happen that, on further reflection, y'all might like to actually see happen, rather than just take my word for it. Thus, this bright and uplifting little breakup story, which takes place shortly before "Michael" and contains very minor spoilers for that episode and for "The Tower," as well as a whole mess of references to everything previous to this in the Alpha Centauri universe. Seriously, don't even think about starting with this one.

LOL...i wasn't even going as meta as suggesting fictional character hating author :-) i just felt that john had to hate rodney a bit while still loving him.

and i'm very happy about 8 reassurance...and even if you break my and john's heart yet again...there's always the outtake which will become my personal way in the future they're all haoppy together...

OH, I didn't connect that story to this storyverse. I liked it when I read it, but... ::thinks::

Hmm. I like it as a standalone, but in that threesome it's all about Rodney, and in this series that somehow doesn't satisfy as an ending for me, although I trust Hth to get us readers to the end she chooses.
