Like Scorpions For Chocolate by Feldman (R)

Fandom: FARSCAPE
Pairing:: None
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] rubberneck
Author's Website: fanfic by feldman

Why this must be read:

Because this is Farscape on acid.  This is a scary, wild ride with dialogue that's sharp, observations that sting, and a John that's slowly sinking into insanity.  Many, many characters make an appearance, including one of my guilty pleasures, DK. 

During Season 2, Farscape treated us to the slow, gradual descent of John into madness.  Here, feldman takes that stencil and really shows us how mad John possibly might be going.  It's painful to read, in some apsects, because this is a character you love, a character that's breaking in front of your eyes. 

Another first person POV fic and, like [livejournal.com profile] themonkeycabal before her, does it well and does it with flair.  Vivid images and characters that you almost see from two different views.  The first being the characters in John's mind, the slight hint of insanity they all have and the characters as they are, on the periphery, watching their friend cracking.

And there's PK-DK.
