Review:
If there was ever a story that turned me into a fan of That 70's Show, this one would most definitely have to be it. Broken up into four 'episodes', Chronicles of the Rebel Alliance spans the course of several years and explores the, surprisingly intricate, relationship between Eric and Hyde as well as their relationship with those around them.
I love this story for a variety of reasons, most of them having to do with the fact that the author doesn't just give us a fairy tale romance where everything is hearts, flowers, and tie-dye peace signs. No, the author makes the characters (and us) work for their happy ending and forces them to deal with real life issues, up to and including misunderstandings that go on for years instead of just a few days, and while that might sound frustrating, it's not. It's just a part of life in the 1970s, where being openly (or closeted) gay isn't easy and being in love with your best friend since you were eleven is really something you have to deal with, sooner or later.
