Justin and Gabrielle in the Shadow of the Gods, 6  
Yes, we all know that I mercilessly mock the crack!fic. When, that is, I'm not writing it.

This is chapter six of "Justin and Gabrielle in the Shadow of the Gods," the sequel to Justin and Gabrielle in a Bottle. The previous chapters of this story are here.

The underlying structural soundness of Pittsburgh was not broken during this story.

This is chapter five of "Justin and Gabrielle in the Shadow of the Gods," the sequel to Justin and Gabrielle in a Bottle. The previous chapters of this story are here.

Since it's been a while since I updated this story, I'll try to summarize in a few words: I's crack a beautiful story of the love.

Upon careful consideration, apparently many things were broken during the writing of this story, and Brian really better see someone soon about that heartburn problem.

I know you want Pulse Point, but believe me, that's a lot more work than this, since in this I don't bother much with, well, you know, consistency, canon, and really insightful characterizations. Justin's a golden retriever puppy. Brian follows him around like a bitch in heat. It's beautiful.

I won't lie to you: Justin's been kidnapped and therefore there is no sex in this chapter. (Xena and Gabrielle abstained out of sympathy.) It is, therefore, however, a short chapter, so you should be able to stand it.

The previous chapters of this story are here.

No teenage hustler skulls were broken in the writing of this fic, but it was a close thing.

Justin and Gabrielle in the Shadow of the Gods, 3  
This is part 3 of Justin and Gabrielle in the Shadow of the Gods, the sequel to Justin and Gabrielle in a Bottle. I apologize for both fics. Previous chapters of this story are here.

This chapter got like majorly sexed up. The whole first half is just one sex scene after another. I have no idea how that happened. [personal profile] vamphile's muses must have taken over my brain.

I even wrote that Ares/Justin/Brian sandwich scene everyone kept begging for suggesting. (That's Ares in the photo, because really, it's just too hard to describe him. What do you think I am, a writer?) If you like it, you can thank my beta, [profile] gmta_nz,  and my wife, [personal profile] happier_bunny, whose combined entreaties I can't resist. The "how" of this was simultaneously suggested by bunny and my other wife [profile] _alicesprings. (Yes, I worried it wasn't realistic to do this any other way. I worry about realism in a fic about people who have been in bottles for thousands of years and are gods and stuff. I need help.)

Beta'd by [profile] gmta_nz. Dedicated to her also.

Banner and icon by [profile] roc_abs. She gets cursed with the dedication as well. I'm just mean that way.

NC-17
Warning: Threesome (sort of)

It's not enough that I started a sequel to bottle!fic, I'm actually CONTINUING it. I expect mass defriendings, and who could possibly blame you?

The thirteen chapters of the first in this series, Justin and Gabrielle in a Bottle, are here. You'll never be able to make sense of the completely ridiculous plot follow the story without reading that first.

The previous chapter of this story is here.

Beta'd by [profile] gmta_nz , who managed to get fantasies of a Brian/Justin/Ares sandwich out of her head long enough to suggest I move a couple of commas.

The icon and banner were created by [profile] roc_abs, who was also very interested in Gabrielle's workout schedule and the exact address of the gym she's going to.

No primeval bonds of karmic destiny were broken in the writing of this chapter.

It's true. I have written a sequel to Justin and Gabrielle in a Bottle. There are no words to convey how very, very sorry I am to do this to you.

For those who were spared the horror of missed the first part of this story, you'll find it here. All thirteen chapters. Seriously. I should be ashamed.

This time I can share the blame, because [profile] gmta_nz  , instead of simply being the passive recipient of the dedication of this fic, beta'd it. She actually took it seriously and helped me make it better. For instance, under her tempering influence, I decided to leave the plot holes, so prominent in the original story, out of the sequel.

I also promise Brian and Justin will have sex prior to the thirteenth chapter. I have learned my lesson.

For those who find such things distasteful, be aware that this story contains the following:
  • A gorgeous Greek god (not metaphorical but actual) without his shirt
  • Explicit lesbian sex
  • Sympathetic portrayals of Lindsay and Melanie (but no sex)
  • A few rather gruesome plot points
  • Plot. Yes, PLOT! Xie wrote something with a PLOT!
The icon and banner were created by [profile] roc_abs  , who joins me and [profile] gmta_nz   in the Xena/Gabrielle-Brian/Justin love. I of course dedicate this story to them, whether they like it or not.

No ancient Greek gods were harmed during the writing of this chapter.

I suppose I've put it off as long as possible. Think hard before you click...
