Heart-breaking Fics

Hello Hello!

This may be the masochist in me, but I'm looking for totally heartbreaking but still B/J love in the end fics. I can't seem to get my fill on reading about them making it despite insurmountable  odds. 

Thank you so much in advance.    :D

 

ETA: a list of amazing fics in the comments. Thank you so much to those wonderful and amazing people who helped me out   :D

There are very few death!fics out there so I'm always on the lookout for good ones. These are the best ones I've found so far. They're extremely well written and they all made me cry (which pretty much defines a good death!fic for me).

My LJ memories (http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=pendulumchanges&keyword=death%21fic&filter=all) include links to 6 death!fics...

"This Time Out" by [livejournal.com profile] suzvoy - short, but fantastic
"Sound of Him" by [livejournal.com profile] herewego15 - very short, but I absolutely love this one
"Boys of Melody" by [livejournal.com profile] sweetestdrain - longer, includes some weird Ethan stuff, but still very good
"The Third Thing Brian Never Did" by [livejournal.com profile] ragingpixie - fairly short, very sad
"Haunted" by [livejournal.com profile] equuscentric - a unique death!fic, it made me sob the first time I read it
"Reaper Boy" in the journal [livejournal.com profile] nanonwrenlet (already recced above) - longer, post-122 AU crossover with the show Dead Like Me... I'd never seen the show before and I still loved this story.

My IJ memories (http://www.insanejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=pendulumchanges&keyword=death%21fic&filter=all) include links to 3 more death!fics...

"Every Fucking Morning" by ladybugkay - very short, one of my favorite death!fics
"When The Time Comes" by not_yet_defined - a fantastic fic
And a death!drabble that also made me cry by specialj67

And two other fics that aren't on either journal...

Seven Stages of Brian and Gus (http://www.randalls-fiction.com/fiction/seven.php) by Randall - longer and very moving
Better Now (http://www.suzvoy.com/qaf/betternow.html) by Suzvoy - post-AU, the first death!fic I ever read and it's still one of my favorites
