Samurai Champloo recs

[valmora]

Because there aren't enough good fics out there that aren't Mugen/Fuu or Jin/Fuu and Jin/Mugen/Jin is practically canon.

Arranged by gen/ship, with the occasional author-in-general thrown in for happy reading. In no particular order within those categories, except by when I added them. Subject to updating without warning.

Most of these fics are culled from the archives of champloo_is_gay, although I should be branching out soon.

Last update: December 2007



Gennish

Pursuit of Happiness, by Halrloprillalar (PGish?)
"He's really depressed," Fuu said. (Jin/Shino mentioned)

Rolling the Dice, by Elementary Magpie (PG)
Fuu was a gambler. (archived at FFN)

antibodies (fully clothed), by two_if_by_sea (PG?)
It finally occurs to Mugen a couple of weeks later that Jin really was high class and Mugen really is low life.

Recovery, by rilina_fic (PG)
Set during the finale. Jin finds something that he thought was lost.



Jin/Shino

Wait in Vain, by Arafel (PG-13)
The rains have come again. Inside the temple, Shino waits and remembers. (Archived at FFN)

Mugen/Jin/Fuu/Jin/Mugen/Fuu/Jin or any permutation

Distance, by scribblemoose (NC-17)
Only a fool would believe that things could stay the same.

Intimacy and Other Problems, by jain (R)
It's not that Mugen doesn't have scruples, but they tend not to be the same as other people's.

A Change in Relationship Dynamics, by debchan (R)
Mugen had been thinking.

Enharmonic Intervals, by ponderosa121 (R)
Once she might have been the glue that held them together, but somewhere along the way they became a unit, complete and whole, and it's reflected in the way they move, the way they make love.


Jin/Mugen/Jin

Antagonists, by shayheyred (G through R)
Five connected Mugen/Jin short fics, originally posted to stagesoflove.

some drabbles, by wicked_pistil (NC-17)
Jin/Mugen drabbles from centi_porn. There are 15 in total.

Stray Dog, by wicked_pistil (PG)
It would have been shocking, in fact, if he hadn’t seen him.

Crossroads, by stungunbilly (PG-13 by Val's estimate)
Mugen surprised Jin in a whirling red-black tumble of elbows and metal-shod sandals and wet grass. (summary supplied by Val)

Silence, by intoxic (PG)
He needs this - this silence. He needs this, and he wants this.

Redemption, by intoxic (PG)
Jin was crucified. AU. This one'll take a couple of read-throughs to understand.

Bruises and bloodied blade, by ix_tab (NC-17)
Jin feels. Mugen is broken, but may improve. (Awkwardly written with some errors, but overall good.)

Slow, by Redex (PG-13)
Slow and steady wins the race. (Archived at FFN)

The Barbless Hook, by lynnmonster (MA)
Jin handed his charge into her cabin, fending off her fluttering, thinly veiled invitation to "join her for a game of shoji" with a sigh.

Indigo shifts.

Possibilities, by w17n57 (PG-15)
One point five weeks after the attack, Mugen and Fuu (and Jin) head home.

Two Manners, by keraha (R/NC-17)
There are two manners of loving a man: morally and physically. (Also Jin/Shino)

Two Sides of a Coin, by trinityhelix (NC-17)
Because Jin and Mugen are more alike than they think.

Bruised, by emungere (NC-17)
He was half asleep the first time, or so he likes to tell himself.

since i am not a bird, by sanyin (R)
All his life, Jin has looked for control.

Chance, by etchedinclouds (NC-17)
The world just never seems to change. Or maybe it does, and he doesn't.

The Wedding, by 3_jane (PG-13)
In hindsight, he should have known the whole thing was going much too easily for him. (Part 2)
