Gabrielle Learns Another Lesson by Wyatt Traishe
Recommended by: Rocky - 08.20.99
Classification: Not so Classic X&G/screenplay
Sex/Violence Content: Alt/R for sexual humour
Length: Short Story, 58 pages - Complete
Time for a little irreverent humour. Wyatt Traishe's "Gabrielle Learns Another Lesson" had me rolling on the floor.
Xena and Gabrielle are visiting Cyrene and Lila in Amphipolis. While waiting tables the bard bowls over a priest resulting in an interesting curse with hilarious results.
Warning this is trashy sexual humour at it's very best. Little people and hard core feminists are best to give it a miss. I promise you will never look at Lila or Argo the same way again!

(A) Good Day Too by LN James
Recommended by: Anima - 08.07.99
Classification: Classic
Sex/Violence Content: Gen
Length: Short Story - Complete
This is a moving vignette that follows the last scene in A GOOD DAY. Told from Temecula's POV, it's a telling image of our warrior and bard and the notion of 'The Greater Good', as well as a very touching image of lost innocence. LN delivers a very thoughtful portrait here; it's particularly moving when read as a follow up to LN's vignette (Midnight Letter).

Gumboots For Hire by Lariel
Recommended by: Temora - 05.12.01
Classification: Classic/Uber/Other/Comedy
Sex/Violence Content: Alt
Length: Short Story - Complete
It's terribly difficult to assign this story a category. It's certainly not uber; our heroines are still tramping about Ancient Greece, and it's certainly not Classic, unless you mean in the 'instant' sense of the word. Make no mistake folks, this story necessitates the removal of all forms of liquid from your computer's vicinity. In this hilarious 'Misadventures Of' Xena: Warrior Investigator (complete with rambling first-person narrative), the ex-warlord turned-private-eye is thrown into sexually-frustrated and amorous turmoil when a beautiful young lass named Gabrielle hires her to help look for her missing husband, Perdicus. Throw in an encounter with a slightly off-kilter Callisto and a couple of other familiar faces and you have one of the most unusual and original FF's (complete with sequel, Gumboots Walk Again) that you're likely to find anywhere. Go read! Go read!

Gun Shy by Lorelei
Recommended by: laler - 10.29.99
Classification: Uber
Sex/Violence Content: Alt
Length: Novel - Complete
When Police Officer Desiree "Dez" Reilly responds to an emergency call, she has her first encounter with Jaylynn Savage. When Jay's eyes first meets Dez's, she instantly feels a connection with the officer, so much so that Jay sets off to join the St. Paul Police Academy. Although Dez senses a connection, she is not up to addressing her feelings. Put a gruff veteran police officer and a rookie who wears her heart on her sleeve together as partners and they are bound to clash in both their public and private lives.
Lorelei does a wonderful job of taking us through the days and nights of these two officers while showing us how their lives slowly intertwine causing them to become reliant on one another. While letting the main relationship develop, Lorelei also creates a story that encompasses outside relationships with friends and family, evoking an atmosphere that has a wonderful sense of comfort and belonging.
