Harperlet by R. John Burke (PG)
Hi, I'm
maryavatar, driving the van for Andromeda this month. I'm a great big Tyr/Harper slasher, but I'll roll over and beg for anything well-written and entertaining. Which is why my first rec is almost gen.
Fandom: Andromeda
Pairing: Tyr/Rommie, Harper/Trance (sort of)
Author on LJ: N/A
Author Website: Fanfiction.net profile
Why this must be read: Because it's hilarious if you know Andromeda, and hilarious if you know Shakespeare, and you will laugh up a lung if you know both. It's one of Shakespeare's finest tragedies dressed up as a Shakespearian comedy, written for a sci-fi audience. What's not to like?
Dylan: My hour is almost come, when I to sulfurous and tormenting flames must render up myself. (Aside) And they said I was just a hunk in leather!
Harper: So what’s the deal here? This isn't gonna be another 'restore the Commonwealth' thing, is it?
Dylan: Nah, this one's easy. I need you to get revenge on Tyr for me.
Harper: Oh, okay, if that's... Waitaminute! Get revenge on Tyr? Can’t I get revenge on somebody little, like maybe a Nightsider or...?
Dylan: Listen, Harper! I am thy father's spirit, doomed for a certain time to walk the night, and for the day confined fast to fires.
Harper: Yeah, but...
Dylan: It was murder most foul! Tyr poured poison in my ears...
Harper: Wow, how'd that happen?
Dylan: Don’t ask. Anyway, he killed me, he took my kingdom, he took my wife, he took my ship, he even took the last can of Who hash! And I didn’t get even get to pray first, so now I'm basically screwed for eternity! Now, no son of mine would stand for that!
Harper: Yeah, but Tyr? I mean, he's freakin' huge!
Dylan: Iolaus would have done this for me.
Harper: You always did like him best.
