Dying ain't much of a living by Tiffiny (PG)

Fandom: Magnificent Seven
Pairing: None. Vin
Length: Short 1000 words approximately
Author's website: Unknown

Why this must be read

Vin, or any of the other Magnificent Seven boys, would be more likely to die violently than anything else. How would they cope with a slow, lingering death?

Told from Vin's POV, we see how he and his friends react to such a situation. Though the sections are short, the author keeps each person in character as Vin thinks of their visits to him. We see Vin's clear impatience with the slowness of his death and feel his resentment of his healthy friends. I like his practical acceptance at the end - it seems very fitting.
