Top Five Classic Firefly Slash Fics - Jayne/Simon

[anxiety-junkie.livejournal.com]

This pairing is much rarer when it comes to Firefly slash, though for some reason it seems to be the one I write the most. Go figure. *g*



1. Perdition by Shan - this is one of my favorites in this pairing, because there is an adventure and plot as well as another case of excellent characterization, which you've probably figured out by now is an absolute must with me. Even if you leave out the slash, this is a great adventure story.

2. Making God Laugh by puritybrown - I love this one for several reasons, not least of which it was taken from a fic prompt I had posted on jayne_simon. This is poignant and spare, and it really makes you believe in the pairing.

3. Tetchy by debchan - this is one of the first Jayne/Simon fics ever written, and it certainly stands the test of time. I believe it was written while the series was still being aired, so the characterization is surprisingly good when you think about the fact the author had probably only seen a few episodes by that point.

4. An Arrangement of Parts by ana_grrl - this author is one of the best known Firefly writers; she's written almost every pairing and plenty of genfic too. This one is fun because it is centered around a heist that Simon and Jayne have to pull off together.

5. White Flag by Rachel Lee Arlington – this is another early fic that stands up to scrutiny; it's short and fun with just enough smut to tantalize you.
