Salvation by Evonness (R)
Fandom: ALIAS
Pairing: Sydney/Sark
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: Doesn't have one but other stories located here
Why this must be read: In the Alias fandom epics seem to flow quite freely but what makes an epic amazing, exceptional is the writers ability to take the characters and make them their own. As I began reading this story I knew I was starting a journey – not a momentary glimpse at characters I have become fascinated with but a piece of writing that would suck me. It is again the type of story that once you start you cannot stop.
I realize all my recs have been Sydney/Sark related – mostly because I am so intrigued by the pairing. I am always interested in seeing how others view them or will write them. I was amazed to read that the pairing fell in love so gracefully, even still being associated and tied to so many lies. The love did not come quickly, it transpired over time.
Why do I say this is an epic? It’s long – but it grips at not only the relationship between Sydney and Sark but also the relationships between many of the other characters on the show with those characters. You see a softer side to Irina although never understanding her motives completely. Marshall is priceless with his nervous ramblings and desire to be as interesting as Sark.
The story adds a new flavor to the characters while drawing on the first and second season plots and turning, twisting it so furiously around that you are just overtaken.
Salvation
This is my last rec for Alias this month – I hope that I did not bore anyone with my complete obsession with Sydney and Sark. I do hope to do this again as I believe there will continue to be a large range of wonderful Alias fics out there. Thank you to those of you who have commented or read the stories I’ve recced. I hope you enjoyed them.
