Summary: She doesn't have friends anymore; friends come for you when you need rescuing. She thinks this is how it begins for everyone here.

Review: Oh Kaylee... She's lost hope, captured by Reavers and barely surviving on their ship. Circumstances are extremely grim. Until one day a new, strange prisoner arrives...

What happens to Kaylee and Rodney is horrific, and it's written from the POV of a Kaylee who has been bludgeoned into becoming matter-of-fact and almost affectless about the horror, though bits of her canon personality still peek through. The way she and Rodney end up escaping the Reavers is a nice ironic twist. (Don't feed Wraith to those who know what they are.) A short but haunting story, which, despite the warnings and grimness, ends on a note of real, sweet hope. It has a sequel (http://archiveofourown.org/works/30053) that, although it deals with PTSD, offers a happy ending.

Summary: Very dark A.U. Legolas slave fic. Mirkwood is a subjected realm and must give hostages to the other Elven realms as slaves. Legolas is the slave of Aragorn, who is a sadist. And to keep Legolas loyal to the Ranger, he is bound by a cruel spell: the Mael-Gûl.

Review: This so well-written and plausible that despite the bleakness and dark setting, it is a fascinating read. Everyone and everything is carefully thought out and planned that the whole fic works, and works well. The weaving of canon and fic is of the very highest order. In fact, after reading this, you can easily believe that this truly is the darker side of elven life that was not shown in the movies. But -- if you don't like the idea of an evil Elrond, or a cruel Aragorn, then don't read.

There is also a spin-off: "Murder The Dawn".

Review: I thought this was one of the best Inception stories that came out off the Big Bang this year. The character voices were spot on and it was truly creepy. I could not stop reading once I started.

I have the feeling a lot of people gave it a pass because of the pairing. But it's a solid story. :)

Glad I could help. :) But seriously wasn't that creepy??? I'm just surprised I haven't seen more talk about this story. I hadn't read a story this scary since Dean Koontz's Phantoms.

I think you're probably right about Arthur/Cobb being a semi-rare pairing in Inception fandom (which sort of baffles me to be honest) but it's a rare treat to get a story this long and this well written in any fandom. I hope readers don't let the pairing put them off the story forever.

I also had to google Eames. :)
