(crossposted to my LJ)So I actually tried to guess my
slashababy writer this year and I was right! My lovely fic -- A Viggo/Bean/Orlando piece called
On the Road to Nowhere -- was written by the awesomely talented
chaosmanor, who just happens to be one of my favorite Lotrips writers.
I raved about it kind of spastically when I first read it, but I've been reading it again and I want to try to do somewhat better feedback.
It's a lovely little story and one that hits me in many number of ways. First off the title is from one of my favorite Talking Heads songs, and it's a roadtrip fic, and I love roadtrips and roadtrip fic. Plus, I asked for Viggo/Bean/Orlando or any combination thereof and got all three! Such a deal!
The fic itself is a joy. As always,
chaosmanor's writing is excellent; she's wonderful at showing us the kind of relationship Sean and Viggo have without using an anvil to
tell us. When Orlando shows up, the sex is incredibly hot for all that it's not seriously graphic. And while the minor drug use might squick some people, I loved it; talk about people I wouldn't mind sharing a joint with.... And finally, the ending is lovely and unexpected.
So thank you again, Now Not So Secret Santa!
