Brideshead Revisited - there need to be more fix-it type and 'happily ever after' type fic for that.

Also - ANY CJ Cherryh book, or Tanith Lee book, for that matter. I will never understand why more people don't want to write in the 'Don't Bite the Sun/Drinking Sapphire Wine' 'verse.

I wish Cyteen had an active fandom (contemplated writing a short fic) buuuut I'd probably also hate the discourse about rape, incest, racism etc. D:

OH holy gods, yes. Cyteen is so very, very, very fucked up. I still wish there were fic for it, though I'd rather future fic, character stuff, and, say, Justin/Grant post-books fic with some fun times (not fluff, just...not so fraught?) and a little sexy times.

The discourse would be awful, but I'd happily take it for some good fic.

If you're into it, Sholio has written some delightful Alliance-Union fic (all of it for Heavy Time/Helburner, I do believe): https://archiveofourown.org/users/Sholio/pseuds/Sholio/works?fandom_id=116336

My fic idea is basically just post canon Justin and Grant cuddling in bed with Grant asleep and Justin just... thinking about stuff. Just short and semi-fluffy (I mean, Cyteen is inherently not fluffy)

I'd also LOVE a prequel about a younger Jordan, but I doubt it will ever happen.
(I do think Jordan in Regenesis is quite a different character than Jordan in Cyteen (and def less likeable), but I find him really interesting).
Or you know... just a sequel that gives Grant his POV back. I've missed him.

Heee, yeah. So VERY not fluffy, though the last book helped a *little*.
(But...man. Every time i re-read that series it gives serious heebie-jeebies, just....gods.)

Jordan was...on and off...kinda out there, but I feel like I get where he's coming form, in that society, how thoroughly he was fucked over, used, blocked, and basically made invisible. Not that he didn't help to push himself there, but he really was not treated well at all.

I would love one more book in that series that took us maybe 20 years or more into the future. AND, omg, I would love, love, love a sequel to Forty-Thousand in Gehenna - even just a short story! - that shows us just who they had the rider and caliban interacting with. What species, what culture? I want to knoooooooooooow!! :D

Oh, I get most of Jordan. I even get his resentment of Justin to a certain extend, but Regenesis acted like Jordan never actually loved him or rather never loved anyone except maybe Paul (whom he still mistreated).

Wouldn't that be nice? I fantasize about sequels and prequels and then I look at Cherryh's age and... not that I don't think she couldn't reach 100 and churn out 10 books till then buuuuut... (and now I suddenly remember that I didn't even know Storm Constantine died like a year ago till I randomly decided to look up what she was doing.)

Holy wow, really? I didn't know Constantine had died, either. WOW. I remember reading the first few books in the Wraeththu series (and then I kind of lost track), and they were SO cool and interesting.... I'm going to have to get back to those.

I am enjoying the Foreigner series but...wow, it is taking its time. I really enjoyed the book she and Jane Fancher wrote, 'Alliance Rising', and it SEEMS like the first in a series, but i have found *nothing* about if there will be more.

One of my other favorite authors, Tanith Lee, died a few years ago, and I think about how sad it is that she'll never write more in her various 'verses.....

Well, but not to dwell.
