Preludes and Fugues, by Found Feather (PG)

Fandom: The Losers
Pairing: Gen
Length: 2843
Author on LJ: [personal profile] found_feather
Author's Website: AO3

Why this must be read:
This is the start of a rather varied and epic series, with a stunning long plotty gen epic in the middle and some delightful little vignettes of romance.

But this is something totally different. What we have here is an utterly heartbreaking story of what happens at home, with Jensen's niece and sister dealing with the loss of Jensen, with the world breaking around them.

It's sharp, it's emotional and it's a wonderful start to an amazing series.

Excerpt:

Mr Velazquez tapped her on the shoulder, really lightly; Beth jumped and turned around. He looked worried; he'd been her teacher last year, and she liked him. He was really tall, so sometimes he crouched down when he talked to you, and this was one of them; he asked, "Beth? Is something wrong?"

Beth opened her mouth to say no. Or maybe yes. Or maybe I need my Mom, the news says my uncle's dead.

Instead what comes out is a noise and she just bursts into tears.
