2 fics (susan/marcus and neroon/delenn/lennier)

[rivendellrose.livejournal.com]

Title: Trust
Characters: Delenn, Neroon, Lennier
Notes: Written for the Cuddle/Kiss/Sex meme, for nenya_kanadka. Assumes the background and somewhat unusual gender structure of hearts_blood and my Minbari 3rd Gender AU (all previous posted stories collected at that link).
Summary: Delenn has a hard time admitting to illness. Neroon and Lennier help.

Delenn had always found it difficult to admit illness.

Title: The Road to the First Time
Characters: Marcus Cole and Susan Ivanova
Pairing: Marcus/Susan
Rating: Adult
Warnings: Moderately graphic sexytimes at the end.
Summary: Set in the same AU as Twenty Years On, this takes off from the end of the flashback in that piece and carries Susan and Marcus's courtship through to the first time they actually manage to get together (gasp!). I can't remember the exact wording of the request anymore, but it effectively came down to hearts_blood and I talking about how damned awkward and hilarious Marcus and Susan's first time must have been, what with it being Marcus's actual first time, and them being, well, them. I may not have quite hit the hilarious, but I definitely hit the awkward at a few points.

One dinner. That had been the promise - that when Franklin released him from Medbay, Susan would go out with him for one dinner.
