cancer scare / cancer comes back

[akannis.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone,

I am in the mood for cancer fics! But, I'm not really looking for AUs or gapfillers taking place during the season 4 cancer arc...

What I am really in the mood for are post 513 (or at least post season 4/cancer arc) stories where EITHER Brian's cancer comes back, OR there is a 'cancer scare' (as in Brian and/or Justin thinks the cancer might be back).

I don't care if it is one-shot or a longer fic (and it doesn't even have to be the main plot).

I looked through the tags and found 'Divergence' by Ragingpixie (http://ragingpixie.livejournal.com/293002.html). So no need to rec that one :) Keeping my fingers crossed that you guys have some other good stories to rec me though!

Thanks,
Ann

ETA: Some nice recs in the comments! Thanks guys!

I really liked this one... get kleenex first :)

http://www.midnightwhispers.ca/viewstory.php?sid=1766 - Post-series, one-shot, angst, but sweet and hopeful.

This isn't a cancer fic, but it is a Brian gets sick fic: http://www.midnightwhispers.ca/viewstory.php?sid=1434

This is a Justin cancer fic, but it's AU, around season 3, when Justin is still with Ethan: http://www.midnightwhispers.ca/viewstory.php?sid=399

Just a small clarification... The third one isn't AU (at least, I hope it doesn't seem too AU). It's a 'could be canon' fic, that goes with the Justin and Cancer Series (http://www.midnightwhispers.ca/viewseries.php?seriesid=18). (Also here (http://sapphire-3.livejournal.com/19496.html) in PDF format.)

I've already read your 'Justin and cancer series'. I love it, it is great! I guess it's AU in that it diverges from canon (which I suppose is what capoohbear1 meant), but it it definitely in character and 'could be canon' is a good description! You are a great writer!

Thank you! I'm off to read!

Hi,
I did a short one shot challenge fic that matches your request.

[delvalmom.livejournal.com]

Never mind. Someone rec'd it above from my cross post at MW.

[akannis.livejournal.com]

Yeah! Thanks!

Hey!

I wrote my cancer!fic, A Healing Love (http://bjfic.livejournal.com/2985099.html#cutid1), months ago, and it seems to match your request. I'm linking you to BJFic because that was my main post, at the time.

Take care =).

Every time I try to access your sites, I get kicked off line??? Does this happen to everyone?

[lindsay22la.livejournal.com]

I had no problem accessing the link she provided at BJFic.

(Keep trying. It's a great story. Really worth the effort!)

[kiera81487.livejournal.com]

All kinds of glitches happen online, from time to time (especially LJ). Keep trying!

[akannis.livejournal.com]

Thank you! That was a really nice read!

[kiera81487.livejournal.com]

Thank you for reading! Glad you liked it =).

Hi Akannis,

I have this very long list of cancer fics bookmarked:
http://url-girl.livejournal.com/103452.html

I haven't had time to comb through it and see how many of the links are active and I don't know how many fit your specifications but it might be worth looking at a few of them.

Also, one of my favorite writers has just started a WIP that meets ALL of your requests. What are the odds? :) I don't know how long it's going to take before she's done but she is amazing!

[akannis.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the recs! I really liked the first chapter of the WIP!

I've seen the list before, but like you I haven't combed through it all! As far as I've seen most of the stories are season 4 gapfillers though.

[moonbrightnites.livejournal.com]

I'm surprised that more "Brian's cancer returns" fics haven't been written. Well, I'm always on the lookout for them and if I find more I'll link them back to you. :)

[akannis.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it surprises me too, especially considering the number of cancer arc gapfillers that have been written...

Anyways, I did find another short cancer returns fic: http://ellyrianna.livejournal.com/50448.html thought I'd give you the link in case you haven't read it.

[moonbrightnites.livejournal.com]

I haven't! Thank you so much -- I'll go read. :)

[johnnysbiotch.livejournal.com]

I have a story where the cancer in season four was a reoccurence and brian kept cancer in season three secret from everyone. Its about a friendhship he makes with Melanie's niece. Don't know if ur interested in it or not

Re: still looking?

[akannis.livejournal.com]

Hi,
Thank you so much for letting me know! I actually found your fic only a few days ago and read it all (except for the last couple of chapters) at once! I don't have an MW account so I just left you an anonymous comment over there... Anyways, I just read the last chapter and it was really great! Thank you for writing and sharing! I hope you continue to post stories in your 'universe'!
