Chicken Soup for Demonic Soul/Missing by Maldoror (R)
Last rec of the month, thanks for letting me fill your mailbox. I hope you have enjoyed this as much as I have.
Pairing: Gaara/Lee
Author on LJ: Mal's Chants
Length: approx. 9300 words/13000 words
Author website: Hidden Village
Why this must be read:
As my first rec was of the delightful epic, Diplomatic Relations Trilogy by Maldoror so my final recs must be the sequels, Chicken Soup for the Demonic Soul and Missing. If you like this pairing, you will be delighted by the very different fics taking place in the DP universe.
Chicken Soup for the Demonic Soul is a lovely inside view of Gaara as Big Heart, Drunken Fist was for Lee. And like the earlier fic, this story is just as much about Suna's view of a character. While Gaara may still see himself as a monster, Suna's view of their Kazekage has changed. Of course, that doesn't mean not taking precautions.
A more sober story, Missing takes on hard truths that occur when 2 warriors marry. Touched on briefly at the end of Diplomatic Relations, Missing deals with the separations and loss that can happen as shinobi in the Naruto Universe.
Again, I cannot stress if you like a story in any fandom, please drop the author a line. Feedback is the best encouragement an author receives.
