Original poster: jadyn
Title: Holding On
Author: Eryce
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: N/A (gen)
Author's E-mail: yien@yahoo.com
Link to story: http://www.qui-gonline.org/fanfic/holdi
Warnings: None - like the link said.
Reasons for recommending: Another must-read in the JA universe. This one's fantastically angsty. Some of the passages in this story are quite beautiful. And the secondary characters are actually interesting, instead of being just... there, you know. Might want to stock up on tissues again though.

"You look tired, Qui-Gon." Gentle admonishment. "You should get some rest."
"Just tell me, An-Paj." The Master looked up at the Healer for a moment, then returned his gaze to the prone unresponsive figure on the bed. "It’s bad, isn’t it?"
"Yes." Sky blue eyes closed in sudden grief. Silence ensued, broken only by mechanical beeps.
"How bad?"
"Qui-Gon.."
"Just tell me!" A desperate shout. A clenched fist against the white sheets. A calming breath. "Please... I need to know." A whisper this time. Softer, but the agony did not lessen.
