I fell in love with Armandalegg’s fic My Heart Will go On, but it was never finished. I love Titanic fics and was so disappointed. I happened to have come across another Titanic fic:

The Shells of the Ocean

Author: MorningGloryFic

Summary: "Queer as Folk Titanic Style. Irish first class passenger Brian Kinney is set to marry American heiress Lindsay Peterson, his abusive father's last attempt to prevent their family from losing their fortune. But his life takes on a different course when he meet 17 yeard old artist Justin Taylor one nearly disasterous night. Their forbidden love defies not only class, but all social normalities in the time period as they break away from their past selves."

Apparently, the story was removed from its web site. Could anyone please provide a copy?

Edit: The story wasn't found, but armandlegg has graciously announced that she will finish “My Heart Will Go On”. =D

I never even thought about Titanic being a possible QaF fic before seeing this post! Titanic is by far my favorite movie of all time. So, even though you mentioned the My Heart Will Go On fic wasn't finished I absolutely had to go check it out and fell in love with it and am super disappointed it seems to be abandoned and will be unfinished. I really hope that someone can provide a copy of The Shells of the Ocean and would be willing to share with me, I would absolutely love to read it. Are there any other QaF Titanic styled fics?

Is it still worth reading even though it's not finished? And where would I find it? Much Thanks!

Personally I've never even started reading a fic that I knew wouldn't be finished. I had to make an exception to my favorite movie, though, I don't regret reading it, but then again im a die hard titanic fan. Am I disappointed and wanting more? Yes. But it would've driven me crazy if I hadn't. It doesn't delve too much into Brian and Justin becoming super close so that was a little plus to not get extremely attached. So, yeah, in my personal opinion it's really worth the read. It's really good and would've definitely went in my favorite fics if it was finished. It doesn't end in a nail biting cliffhanger, it just leaves you wanting more. I hope that helps a little! (:

Haha, well Justin can get away with anything without even trying. :p Youre definitely not, I can't believe I didn't think about my favorite movie being incorporated in QaF fan fiction. I really hope at least one of the fics get finished someday! I'm really glad you posted this so I could come across My Heart Will Go On. (:

Sandra, did you c/p the summary? Just curious.

Nope, Shells of the Ocean wasn't completed either.

It's still in her memories, but all chapters come up "Access denied." Not sure if they are f-locked or locked to everyone but the author.

No, the reason I was asking is because I make it a habit to never read fic that has typos/misspellings in the summary. Usually doesn't bode well for the fic. :(

Not much of one for historical fic, outside of regular books, and I'm that one person that only liked Titanic AFTER it hit the iceberg. lol

Well...

I have all the stuff sitting here to finish off My Heart Will Go On. I lost 75% of the finished work when my writing laptop died, and well life went and got complicated on me.

I will finish it off. Before the end of this year. I have a break from school coming up here in a few weeks and I will start to get things together so that I can focus on it when school is out of session.

I'm really glad to hear that you plan on finishing My Heart Will Go On!! I've never really been into historical fics, but I fell in love with this one. I'm so glad to know it won't go unfinished! :D I can't wait until you get the time to start it back up again!

Semester ends in 5 weeks, so there will start to be some motion on it soon! :)

Yay! :D I was so surprised and happy to see you comment that it will be finished! Having my all time favorite movie and practically my favorite series combined in a story is irresistible! Thank you so much for writing it and not letting go! (:

Yepper, I'm alive and kicking (and honestly, quite blown away!!) I have a LJ for my fic that it will be posted at. I will figure out how to let you know...

Not sure on any other historical fics. I am flat-out obsessed with Titanic, and loved the idea of throwing the gang in that situation.

You're welcome, Sandra. Sleep well!! :)

The chapters you have written are absolutely wonderful - you must be a writer in real life :)
