Won't Fade Away by Hybridbabe (PG-13)
As promised, this one is not John and Aeryn...
Fandom: FARSCAPE
Pairing: John and Stark friendship

Why this must be read:
Stark is a notoriously hard character to write for, Hybridbabe does it beautifully. He is a fully realized character in this fic, and the piece is almost lyrical in its language, full of depth and beauty. The dialog between he and John is perfect, driving the story foward and so true to who these characters are. The quiet sense of both hope and melancholy are perfectly balanced and it makes the reader ache for both Stark and John. (In a good way *grin*)
Life had started hard. So very, very hard, since the burden of his Stykera self had first manifested. Since the start of his mystical, surreal journey, his periods of lucidity seemed few and far in between, having been required to perform, to act, to heed others and their business instead of dealing with his own. It disrupted himself, the flow of his energy and spirit, to push it back, keep it at bay for solar days, monens, cycles even.
