Review:
After the movie (and apparently before a final scene that I didn't see), Brian comes home to find Dom in his apartment.

Most F&F fics are very intense, full of anger and aggression and angst. And don't get me wrong, I love all of those things. However, sometimes it's nice to read something a bit different. Thus, Aftermath.

Aftermath is a surprisingly quiet, intimate story, when both Brian and Dom are too tired and too wrung out to yell or scream or throw down. Instead they share a quiet conversation over beers, discussing what happened, what it meant, and what they're going to do next. I love the gentle but still in-character feel of the story and of these characters, pushed to the point where they don't even have the energy left to lie anymore.

Sweet and personal, this is lovely, unique, and deeply satisfying F&F story.
