Hey! I found two FK fics! Of course, I immediately thought "I have to go and tell [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] right away!" :)

They're both by [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]. I'm rather gleeful, and will probably be posting nearly the same thing on my journal as I'm commenting on here. :) They're Natalie/Janette, but both are certainly readable as friendship only, if that's what you'd rather. (And knowing you, I'm sure you'd rather. *g*) ETA: Actually, the first one is Natalie/Janette, the second one is friendship only. Oops!

The first, Unfinished Business, is a post-series Natalie and Janette friendship fic, with Natalie as a vampire, and the premise of how Natalie has changed is both heartbreaking and realistic. (The ones that have her coming to terms with it before more than a few decades have passed have me blinking a few times.) I think the author didn't know Vachon's fate in AtA, or maybe she ignored it. It was always unclear anyway, and I like to think he dug himself up after a short period of time.

The other, Hiding Out at the Raven, is a human Natalie and vampire Janette fic, and presumes that Natalie is hiding at The Raven much like Schanke did. It's a nice vignette that feels like a case that was dealt with by the characters between the episodes. Janette's occasional exasperation when Natalie calls her on one of her self-delusions (because Janette is so the vampire den mother of Toronto) is especially delightful to read.
