Author Website: Master fic list
Why this must be read:
In the last two years, since she first started writing in the fandom,elliotsmelliot has quickly become one of those authors you can read with the certainty you'll enjoy the fic and, more often than not, it will make you think. Her evocative writing, rich of plot and character insight, adds depth and meaning to events that canon doesn't explain, giving it reasons and making it more complete and believable (Her fic Collision is my personal Lost finale, at least until we know the real one, and maybe even after).
"The mouth that lies, slays the soul", in particular, deals with what happened during the week on the boat that rescued the Oceanic Six at the end of S4. The title and the different sections are so appropriate that it's almost eerie to read. Quoting from the author's summary:
In his treatise "On Lying", St. Augustine claimed there are eight kinds of lies. Over the course of one week, nearly all types were told onboard the Searcher; however, no saints were present.
