Why this must be read:

An AU set in present day New York. Orlando is beset with a rare skin disease which makes even the simplest of tasks painfully arduous.Beyond shy, he has few friends, but one unusual Wednesday morning on the subway will change everything...

This is a totally AU and some OOC settings but it's good melodrama fluff. I very rarely stick with WIP but I kept up with this one because it somehow hit all my buttons. Most of the cast is there. I especially liked Liv and Sean. Yes it's romantic fluff and Orlando is just OOC but it's good romantic fluff. And sometimes you need a good romantic story to curl up with. I'm not a big Viggorli fan but I liked this one.

******The story is temporarily down. The writer decided to review some parts. See comments below. The writer is okay with the feedback, she had done her research about the EB but wants to put in even more accurate information.*******

******The story is back up again.********




I'm late driving the van this month. RL, work and a nasty cold got to me but I should be able to get my four recs in before Friday.

I started reading this story and got more than half way through when I was locked out as the author had friended her journal. I found this really frustrating as I was enjoying this story very much. I have been trying to find it elsewhere, but every link seems to come back to the livejournal. Does anyone know where else I can get it?? I am desperate to know what happens in the end.

I put in a note at the end of the rec. The author took down the story temporarily but you can email her, she probably wouldn't mind sending the story to you. It doesn't hurt to ask.

I was really enjoying this story, even though I never read this type of fan-fiction. The story worked, even without knowing where she gets her characters from, or anything about the disease. It is obvious though, that she had done some research. If everyone had to get all of their facts perfect, it would be hard for anyone to reach at all with their stories. (for instance, I have had the pleasure of watching "Numbers" with real mathematicians) Please encourage the author to put the story back up, I would love to read the ending.
