I Don't Like Monday's by Red (PG-13)
A bit of introduction first. Hi! I'm WhiteLight, you're Farscape recc'er for the month of July. I read just about anything so expect a nice mixture of stories this month. Hope you enjoy these stories as much as I have.
FARSCAPE:
Pairing:John/Aeryn, John/D'Argo

Why this must be read:
Because Red has one of the most imaginative, vivid minds in the Farscape fandom. Her John is the John I remember from the show, the John with the smart mouth, Earthisms flying at every opportunity. The John/D'Argo pairing is a buddy pairing here, almost reminding me of the Riggs/Murtaugh partnership in the Lethal Weapon series. They snark and argue and disagree. It's just so true to the show, it hurts. The John/Aeryn relationship is one of my favorites, as it's one of love but it's more about the subtle indicators. Quiet dialogue, glances, touches, everything done in a intimate way.
This is first person, written from John's POV, a rarity in the FS fandom. There are few first person stories because they are exceptionally hard to pull off. Red does it and sets the bar high for any other writer.
It's funny, action packed, with snappy dialogue, beautifully drawn original characters and interaction between the crew that could've been written by one of Farscape's own writers. It's long, so settle in, and enjoy yourself.
