Title: Slayer – Love Hurts (And Then The Mop Goes Into The Dragon)
Author: [info]aldiara
Recipient: [info]ktbob
Character(s)/Pairing(s): Roman Wild, Deniz Öztürk, Marc Hagendorf, Isabelle Steinkamp, Tom Reichenbach, Vanessa Steinkamp, Florian Wild, Marian Öztürk; Deniz/Roman, *Roman/Marc, Marc/Tom* [highlight for hinted-at other pairings]
Summary: Being an account of what transpired at the Öztürk/Wild household and elsewhere after certain events inconveniently recalling the recent past. A story involving ice musicals, skating games, bitchy skaters, clueless computer nerds, stage drama, porn, dragons, horses, untimely revelations, need for closure, questionable likelihood of attaining closure, and Many Many Issues.
Rating: NC-17
Warning(s): Excessive musical cheesiness. Defilement of sacred kitchen appliances.
Word Count: 44,000
Author's Notes: Diverges from canon sometime past episode 1020, although Jenny's disappearance still happened. For the purposes of this fic, Katja never returned from Halle, and the Frank=Franziska reveal has already taken place. Additional author's notes and beta credits (<33333) to follow after reveals. All ludicrous flaws regarding descriptions of skating, localities and ice show production belong to author.

Damn you, IJ!
And also, I dig the little Igloo-based references you've stuck in. Aida! Steinkamp/Ozturk family dinners! Strippercop! I'M ON A HORSE! AHAHAHAHAHA, I ALMOST DIED AT THAT, I HONESTLY DID. OH MY GOD.

Alsoalso, POINTS for the Johnny Wier reference. Just 'cause. And 'sword' innuendos on ice? *love* And the fangirling of the audience when Norman kissed Andre? Priceless and oddly touching.

Finally, I love that this piece gives closure to the RoMarc storyline, but only to the extent that anyone ever really gets closure. It'd be silly to consider Show's resolution as "closure", and this story has the perfect amount of leftover 'what ifs'. There's still something between Marc and Roman - they're always going to be more-than-friends, even if that 'more' isn't necessarily romantic. They know each other well, and connect on a very deep level that kind of transcends friendship even without romance or sex.

It also gives a bit of closure to the JeRo thing. It's anoyed me that Show never really acknowledged the fact that Jenny and Roman have known each other for a good decade and a half, and were best friends for most of that. Roman seeing Jenny in Isabelle, and especially the connection between Jenny in Eltara, was a lovely touch, so poignant.

And I have no idea how you did it, but Tom/Marc works. IT WORKS. THEY'RE ADORABLE. THEY SHOULDN'T BE ADORABLE. BUT THEY ARE.

AND OH MAN THE END. THE END WAS JUST AWESOME. SO HOPEFUL AND SWEET AND YET SO WELL-FITTED TO THE REST OF THE STORY. The metaphor of the dragon and the parallel of The Eskimo Kiss of 299; Marc, Tom and Isabelle laughing together; refrences to leaving Essen... I LOVE YOU AND I LOVE THIS STORY. FOREVER.

(Also, the sex. MROW. Poor ceramic stovetop; although I'm honestly surprised it's survived un-defiled for this long.)
