Three Princes by Domenika Marzione (General)
Fandom: X-MEN COMICVERSE
Pairing: none
Author on LJ:
domarzione
Author Website: The DMZ
Why this must be read: I'm not, for the most apart, against the killing of characters in any medium, but the death of Colossus a few years ago in the core books still really chaps my ass. It felt cheap and pointless, and because there were a lot of creative changes right around that time, the poor dead Russian kind of got pushed under the rug and forgotten.
This story is what we should have gotten in the comics. The choice of narrator is unexpected, but it makes so much damn sense once you get over the surprise. A posthumous fic in which a dead man's possessions and the people who knew him best are all that's left to speak for him. And they do.
