Ninjababe
Silicone
Anyone can hide behind a mask... but also a mask can break...
Oneshot
1+2, angst, songfic, slight romance, shifting POV
As Ninjababe says: "Same old, same old, Duo's deeper than he seems."
That is *not* a bad thing! I know that there's a lot of these stories out there but this one *has* to be one of the best!
NEW Rachel NEW
Sick Day
What should one do when one's sweetheart is sick? Quatre finds the answer. Or rather, is forced to accept the answer.
3 parts
3x4, 2xH, 1xR, sap, fluff, pure happiness
I spent some time going through a new favourite archive of mine, QT, and found out two things. One: 3x4 can be a nice main pairing. Two: 2x4 and/or 1xR can be pretty sweet at times. I am not sure why, but those who write 3x4 as a main pairing seem to prefer background het pairings. And while I've never had any problem with 2xH so has 1xR always made me uncomfortable. But I guess I was wrong. As long as a story is good, any pairing is acceptable. I do not *mind* gw-boyxgw-girl. In fact, I find it kind of sweet at times. Only, I will always prefer yaoi pairings in the gw fandom. Nothing will ever change the fact that I find 1x2 to be the best pairing ever. Rachel's story Sick Day, is a sappy piece of work. That kind that makes you feel warm and happy inside. And Hilde is a real gem, especially together with Duo.
Raihne
Darling Little Duo-Chan
The scientists decides to try out an experiment . . . on Duo, making him become a child again.
9 parts
1+2, fluff, cuteness, humor, sap
This story is a part of an arc about all the pilots as 'chibi-fied' once. I like this story the best though, so I decided to rec just this. I read this with a smile on my lips and I woke my sister up saying 'aww' all the time. I love the title too, Darling Little Duo-Chan.
Seren
Manipulations
Wufei is becoming tired of the never-ending fighting between Duo and Heero, and decides to end it all.
Oneshot
1+2, Wufei and Heero POV, romance, humor, nice Wu-bear.
Anothe fic I read early in my gw-obsession. Manipulations was one of those that told me that Wufei could be a nice character despite his never-ending nosebleeds and rants about justice.
Sailor Seraphim
Even I Can Say Good Bye
Relena understands that she finally has to let go of Heero.
Oneshot
1x2, 4x3, 3x5(?), 4x3x5(?) R+1, drama, general, romance, RFO
I don't really like Relena all that much but this story is nice anyway. I really like the 1+2 moment in this fiction, they're soooo sweet. ^_^
Shoori
The Closing Time Arc
Duo. Trowa. Heero. Overlapping romances, action and angst.
More than 40 parts
2x3x2, 1x2, 1x2x3, 1xR, threesome, angst, drama, romance, action . . . the list can go on and on.
Shoori is another one of those few authors that makes me love Trowa almost as much as Duo, and manages to write threesomes in a way that I like. The angst is heavy in this one, but there is also sweet moments of sap, occasional humor and sarcasm. And the guys are all stubborn, have inferiority complex and angst. In other words, just another day for our poor, abused guys. It hit me right now, what is tere out in the world the pilot haven't done or met with? They've gone through plane-crashes, fought dinosaurs and vampires, shared apartments, been unfaithful, eaten cookie dough ice-cream - from each other's bodies, been baby-sitters, thrown in jail, raped . . . and so on more than once. Anyway, this story is damn good and helped me out of the gw-can't-find-any-good-fics-anymore-depression I have once in a while.
Updated Sol 1056 Updated
Broken Jade NEW
Takes place years after the war. Trowa and Heero are in a steady relationship, and Duo was presumed dead. Was.
1x3x1, 1+2 (friends), 1+2+3, angst, drama, deals with brainwashing and slavery. Definitely not for kids.
If there was a price for 'best emotional roller coaster', then this fic would definitely win. I don't think I've ever read anything quite like this story before. The concept is complicated, and I admire Sol for ever writing this story. The twists and turns are even more complicated, and I have never ever been able to predict what would happen next. The developing of 'Jade' is uniqe and I want to rec him in my character rec page. Only I'm not sure into which category he'd fall. Just when you are happy about something cozy/sappy-ish in the story, something will happen, and it will be so original and unique that it will suck you in and force you to read, whether you have time to or not. This is the kind of story that makes you cry and smile at the same time.
Of Cats and Wolves
A gathering of Creatures. A half-Wolf trying to find his younger brother a wife. New friends enter the picture.
16 parts
1+2, 3+4, 5+M, AU, fantastical animal/people mixes, sap, fluff and a little angst
I think of this story as a Shakespeare comedy; fluffy, warm and with surprisingly angsty themes now and then. And of course, adorable characters. The gem of this story is, with no doubt, Duo, who is lovable. He might be chatty and bouncy, but he is also witty, quick and mischievous. (Hey, he's a half-Fox, what did you expect?) Not to mention that he is a complete sweet-heart. This is the kind of story that leaves you feel warm and happy when you have finished.
Spooks
Asylum
The guys are in a mental asylum but there is proof for that they aren't really insane. At the same time, strange things are going on. What are all those test for? What happened with Milliardo Peacecraft?
14 parts
1x2 3x4 5xM (kinda) , R, attempted NCS, angst, drama, Duo-POV, sarcasm, horror, depressions
*shivers* This fic is just too good! Spooks is really a fitting name on the author! ^_^ The way she writes Duo's thoguht are great - sarcasm and angst at the same time. Make sure to check out the fanats for the fic too, because she has tons of it on her site, Twisted Perspective.
Porcelain
It's after the war and Duo and Heero are happily living together as lovers. Their peace disturbs when they realize that they have a stalker who possibly want's to kill them both.
16 parts
1x2 3x4 5xR, R, angst, horror, drama, romance, scary,
Ohh, I love this story! I kept changing believes in who were the guilty one and the outcome surprised me. Every small detail made you suspicious of someone or something and it was.. creepy. Usually there isn't many fictions that effects me like this one did. Not that it is a bad thing... actually it is a good thing. ^_^
Steve Parker
And Never the Twain Shall Meet
A story about how the war ends and the pilots can finally find peace.
20 parts, in progress
1x2, 3x4 and 5xOMC, past 13x5, sap, drama, sap and maybe even more sap
Well, this story is just so.. happy. Sure is is angst here and there but this is mostly a sappy story about how Duo and Heero get together, and later also Wufei and a likeable OC. Very touching, and I liked Heero's 'speech'.
Stormy
Parallel
Harry Potter...Heero Yuy...what do they have in common...?
22+ parts, work in progress
1x2 3x4 Ginny+1 (kinda), drama, fluff, romance, fantasy, Harry Potter/Gundam Wing crossover, WIP
Well, I like HP/GW crossovers and this one is one of the best, I'm sure. The plot is good and I like Duo in this story. He's adorable. ^_^
It's one of the few crossovers with a great plot, not only a lame excuse for getting characters from different animes/books together with timetravel etc.
Sunhawk
Ion-series
A long saga about Duo and Heero and their relationship through accidents, hardships and even small every day incidents.
Arc with currently 12 stories
1x2, 3x4, Duo POV, angst, drama, romance,
sap
Oh my God. ^_^
This has to best best thing I've ever read!
Sunhawk is a master in writing emotions and the guys really seem to be *guys*, not girly boys. Characterizations are wonderful (though everyone but Duo is slightly bastardized in the beginning. It gets better later, I promise!) The way Sunhawk writes people's reactions to different incidents and how she even writes these incidents that some people can call usual every day moments is wonderful. There is angst, yes, and it makes these tender moments between the guys even better and gives much more effect. Sunhawk does also seem to like Wufei rather much, something I really enjoy since he is written like a friend just like the other guys, not a solitary, justice-ranting freak. I love 'Fei so it is a welcome thing.
Road Trip Arc
An arc about how Duo and Heero get together and faces hardships from Duo's past, with help from the other guys.
Arc with currently 14 stories
1x2, 3x4, slight 5+2, angst, drama, action, romance, past NCS, sap, various POVs altering between Heero, Duo and in one case also Wufei.
Winner in the 'a little piece of Gundam Wing contest 2002' in the category of 'best arc' More emotionally settling than Ion-series, I guess, in a good way, even though I like Ion better. ^_^ This story is also great and nicely written, and Sunhawk's action scenes are great. I can admit that I stopped reading this after the first part but did then later continue it and I'm glad that I did. Sunhawk has also done something I can't really explain well, but I'll try. She makes 'love' into something that two people feel and need, not just one of the partners leaning and needing the other. For short, Sunhawk writes love as a two person activity. Duo needs Heero, he is the strong anchor and person he loves. Heero needs Duo, he needs him to lean on him and need him. Heero wants to be useful and help him. It's hard to really explan what I mean, but I guess this will do. Also, neither of them are 'perfect'. (though they certainly seem to try) Both are stubborn and worry about each other. Both are so incredibly . . .. male sometimes. ^_^
