Gehenna by Maayan (R for sexual themes and violence)
Fandom: Farscape
Pairing: John/Chiana
Author on LJ:
_maayan
Author Website: The Janissary
Why this must be read:
Ten years into the future and the universe is a different place. There is a war that no one is really winning and the reason for resistance is harder and harder to find. Family and friends dead and gone. Safety is an illusion and peace has faded into myth. John and Chiana on a mission to destroy wormhole research.
But that's not what this story is about.
This is a story about Chiana and love and memories. It is a story about need and fear and pain. About Death and life. About not being alone.
It is a story about, how in the end, all love is selfish and letting go is harder then remembering.
Chiana is the Collective. Keeper of the design, living chronicle, willing matrix, guardian of the gifts left by those who went before her. She is John's memory, on the days when he cannot bear to remember and keep on breathing.
There's no future, only moments. There are things to be done. Aeryn always said. One must fulfil their duty. John's duty is to stay alive and end the war, lead, defeat the enemy. Chiana's duty is to be the pillar of John's strength, his foundation, anchored in time and shared friendships.
The meaning. It's all there. History. Star charts. Trust, love, bonds, family mapped out like constellations in Chiana's soul.
