Author Website: author's page on gossamerWhy this must be read: This rather old-school fic was first published almost ten years ago, but it still has the power to break my heart. Written during the depths of the cancer arc, this story is a powerful description of two people who desperately love one another but who have been subsumed by so much sorrow that this love has become desperate, hopeless. This is the cancer arc in all its brilliant, heart-rending horror. (You'll see at least one more cancer fic from me before the end of the month.)
Incidentally, you should also read "A World To Save" (also by Geb)--a unique and gorgeous post-col.
