Why this must be read: A post by someone on my flist got me feeling in a nostalgic mood and I went and re-read this unusual crossover story in which the Gundam pilots get a new job as bodyguards to Nsync. With her usual quiet competence Arsenic manages to bring these two very different worlds together and make it work. It's got some action, a little romance and a little angst, and a bit of snark and bantering. All in all a nicely entertaining story.
Excerpt: "Quatre says that we're being paid to do this, and -- don't get me wrong -- I don't think any of us are above doing some pretty incredible things for money. But Lance is right, you're paying us to secure your persons by traditional means, being willing to step in front of a crazy with a knife, that kinda thing. So, if our tendency toward thinking about the proactive has nothing to do with the selling of our skills, then what is it about?"
JC's smile was secretive. "I see Duo's point, but it goes both ways. Justin hardly said what he said because he's actually worried about having to find new bodyguards."
"Great, we've established that we all like each other, this doesn’t really change anything." Wufei was attempting to glare at all nine other people in the room at once.
"No," Chris agreed, "but it does make everything seem a lot less pointless."
Justin's shoulders drooped. "I still don't want y'all doing this."
"Have a little faith," Heero began.
"We're surprisingly good at doing shit that can't and shouldn't be done," Trowa finished.

::laughing:: Yup, I did! The only boyband fic I've ever read was her SGA crossover and your Gundam Wing crossover and they're both wonderful! Thank you for writing this!
