When the Dust Settles by Damson (R)

Fandom: THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS
Pairing: Brian/Rome, Brian/Dom
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] damson
Author Website: motherboard
Why this must be read:

This is a roadtrip story, of which I think there aren't enough in this fandom. It seems so obvious, because of the cars and the ansgt. And it's a love story, but in a quiet, barely noticeable way, which I love. It's set after 2 Fast 2 Furious, but the author has spent a good amount of time making up some history for both Brian and Rome. Which is great, since the movies don't bother. The author shows us just how far back the two friends go, and deals with Brian's connection to Dom as well. And there's sex, but it isn't really the point, which I thought would be a nice change of pace.


Rome left Miami without a second thought. Once Brian had said he was, Rome had followed suit. There was nothing else tying him there anyway. He hadn’t even asked how long they were going for, just grabbed some clothes in a bag and jumped in Brian's car.
