'Irenicon' by Yahtzee (NC-17)
Fandom: ALIAS
Pairing: Sydney/Weiss, Nadia/Vaughn, Jack/Irina, and a few others.
Author on LJ:
yahtzee63
Author Website:Yahtzee
Why this must be read:
Novel length works can be tricky - maintaining a complicated plot and keeping a handle on character motivation becomes more difficult the longer a fic gets, and even the professionals who get paid to write the official tie-ins tend to mess it up.
Fortunately,
yahtzee63 doesn't drop anything with this fic. It goes AU after the third season, and the author manages to tie all the mythology and character arcs together into a resolution more satisfying than the show's fourth season.
All of the pairings and character relationships were handled well, but it was the father and daughter interaction between Jack and Sydney that really blew me away. Go read it; I'm sure you won't be dissappointed.
