2x1 recs
I *love* 2x1! It all started with this little fic called “Another Version of Events” by Karen Seraph. Though this fanfic is more 1x2 than 2x1, she wrote such steamy hot 2x1 with Heero dressed as a French maid or a bunny boy that I’ve been a slave to bottom Heero ever since and will read even horrible 2x1 just to get my fix.
However! Don’t dispare, this 2x1 list, may not be that big (I do plan on updating it eventually) but they are not ghastly 2x1’s. well, at least I don’t think so.
Added bonus: link to Another Version of Events

And, uh, don’t ask me why, but I seem to have an atrocious laziness about putting WIP where it is needed. Though some of them are WIP, and some of them hadn’t been updated in years when I rec’ed them, I just never seemed to think about it when I rec’ed them.
Title: Equine Arc: Equinity, Time Fault and Out, Going for Gold
Author: ShenLong
Pairings:1+2/2x1 or 2=1, 3x4, 13x6, H+C
Rating: varies between pg13 and nc17
Warnings: au, lemon, a bit of angst
Disclaimer: I think ShenLong secretly owns the g-boys, but just isn’t telling.
Summary: Heero is a successful up and coming Showjumping rider with his promising new horse Zero. A fall at a show renders the animal injured and it is up to Duo Maxwell the new vet to treat the horse.
link: http://www.gundam-wing-diaries.150m.com/gw/ShenLong/gw_Shenlong.htm
Why I like this fic: The Equine Arc is a fan-fic that moves slowly through the years, patently manipulating the reader into a story that is sweetly inspirational, and surprisingly action packed. Its unquenchable plot takes the reader through the life and happenings of two lovers, their own paths in life, and how they compliment each other. The scenes ShenLong creates are almost perceptible with the attention and detail she crafts into her settings, delivering a feel good atmosphere that has become one of the best stories I have ever read.

Summery: Heero and Duo get a divorce.

Why I liked it & Summery: The most awesome thing about this story is that it reads just like Ginsgurg’s poem, Howl. Set in a future AU world nothing like the GW universe, it shocks and sucks you in before the fist paragraph is done. Everything you thought you knew isn’t as it seems, plots twists, characters are different yet are the same, a political government nightmares are made of, DOA like intrigues, and a dog. note: don’t let the 1xR put you off, it did for me until curiosity got the better of me and now I regret not reading it when I first came across it.

Why I like this fic: this is like the very long PWP that decided to have a little bit of plot thrown in for good angst and drama fun. Jana rocks my socks off with her writing, I knew I’d love the story from the first few paragraphs, so I’m all the more happy that she has written this fic and given us more. Oh, and I just adore her Duo in the fic! I think, this might actually be a fic I’m rec’ing more because of the Duo than the uke Heero, though the Heero in this story is well written too, Duo is a fully realized character that is very interesting to read.

Lady Une is still leading the Preventers, but Sally Po has broken away and joined an underground resistance movement, working with Zechs and Trowa, with Quatre's assistance, to try to stop the Foundation.
Why I liked it: terrific writing, and an electrifying plot that keeps you on your toes guessing. From start to finish the reader is moved through a plot of deception, where everyone believes the other of deceit. The plot starts off in one directions and ends in another, answering all questions and ending with more.

Summary: Duo isn't willing to let Heero go without a fight. But Heero is just too clueless to understand why Dou is acting the way he is.
Why I liked it: putting aside the fact that Link Worshiper is a wonderful writer who can truly write Duo and Heero in wonderfully believable ways, this story hit’s the spot in sweetness and humor, ending a breathtaking final. And I liked that clueless Heero wasn’t a stupid Heero, and that a jealous Duo wasn’t an annoying Dou.

Summery: the G-boys are all grown up, there are good things and bad things about this Duo has summarized. Duo and Heero share an apartment, and are good friends. When Heero goes through a break up, he forms a crush on Duo, who knows and accepts it while delighting in the attention he gets from Heero. When Heero starts dating again, Duo finds he misses Heero more than he thought he would, and tries to find a way to keep him.
Why I like it: there is more to this story than just a get together fic, or even discovering that you love someone. This story has all the complexities of a feel good romantic movie, where the main characters has to really overcome simple emotional boundaries to find the kind of happiness they were always looking for and never realized was always right before them.

Duo and Heero are scientists and work for the same lab, but Heero died about 50 years before duo was born from a fatal illness. Duo falls in love, Doc’s J & G help him go back in time to meet Heero and vows to find a cure. So, Heero is placed in cold sleep until the cure is found, then wakes up to an older Duo and a teenage daughter.
Why I liked this fic: A love the transcends time and all hardships, all characters are fully realized, effortlessly walking in and out of the story without fault, to leave the reader spellbound to its embrace. I wish this writer would do more stories, even if they weren’t GW.

summery: “It's a time of high tensions and paranoia for mankind, and an aimless one for Heero Yuy. While trying to remedy the sense of something missing in his routine life, he suddenly decides to study a suspicious con artist, Duo Maxwell, on his paper on humanity.” taken from author’s summery. This author is more 1x2x1, but this story is a beautifully written 2x1, it’s a long read, but so freaken worth it!
Why I liked it: the author takes the reader on a intensely personal mediation of heroism and moral choices. Her style is rich and dreamlike in its telling, binding the reader with a captivating and violent charm. A powerful and though provoking piece, that wont leave the reader shell shocked in the end despite its ostensible journey through hell. A must read in my opinion.
Kaitsurinu has updated with the sequel to The One Eared Neko, a 1x2x1 Gundam Wing fic titled Pedigree. Both are worth reading because her writing is so well done, I’m shocked she is writing fan-fiction and not out making lot’s of money becoming a best selling author.
You can find her at: www.fanfiction.net/u/176174/
I also recommend How To Be Dead, and My Shinigami, My Hamburger. They are both very good reads. Her other fic’s, weather it be GW, or another fandom, are just as well written and beautiful.

Summery: the G-boys are all grown up, there are good things and bad things about this Duo has summarized. Duo and Heero share an apartment, and are good friends. When Heero goes through a break up, he forms a crush on Duo, who knows and accepts it while delighting in the attention he gets from Heero. When Heero starts dating again, Duo finds he misses Heero more than he thought he would, and tries to find a way to keep him.
Why I like it: there is more to this story than just a get together fic, or even discovering that you love someone. This story has all the complexities of a feel good romantic movie, where the main characters has to really overcome simple emotional boundaries to find the kind of happiness they were always looking for and never realized was always right before them.

summery: The story is loosely based on gw doujinishi called The Eternal Rhapsody. Duo and Heero are scientists and work for the same lab, but Heero died about 50 years before duo was born from a fatal illness. Duo falls in love, Doc’s J & G help him go back in time to meet Heero and vows to find a cure. So, Heero is placed in cold sleep until the cure is found, then wakes up to an older Duo and a teenage daughter.
Why I liked this fic: A love the transcends time and all hardships, all characters are fully realized, effortlessly walking in and out of the story without fault, to leave the reader spellbound to its embrace. I wish this writer would do more stories, even if they weren’t GW.

Summery: After the war, Trowa confesses his love for Heero. Heero, reluctant at first, gives into his emotions, and they live happily ever after, until…
Warning: 3x1, angst, a real tear jerker if I ever read one!
Notes: The story’s foundation, the training and advancements Heero had to go through to become the Perfect Soldier will eventually kill/sicken/hurt him, has been done before, most of the time though it’s one of those “Suspend Belief” scenarios, but this one came across more real I had no problem reading this fic.

Murder Has Blue Eyes, by Shira

Summery: Someone wants Duo dead, and Heero is just the assassin to do it.
Warning: 2x1, AU, non-main character death, angst.
Note: Until the plot gets rollin’ the story is a bit long winded at some points, but other than that it’s well written, with a good story line.
Maxwell’s Demon

*You got he Ooo’s, the Awww’s, the chuckles, the WTF’s and the happily ever after. What more could you ask for? Well, Heero saying: "I'm going to fuck you stupid” and owning up to that statement is what I’d ask for ^.^!!! Warning:1x2x1

*drool. Wow. drool. I was impressed and hooked with the plot, character description, and the very high-quality writing. Note: other GW stories on this site are just as good.

*Heero’s sense of humor in this fic is to die for!!! Warning: WIP with only 3 chapters, but it’s still a hoot!

Title: One Eared Neko
By: Kaitsurinu
Pairing: 1x2x1
Rating: R
Warnings: AU, violence, bigotry
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1998955/1/
summery: “It's a time of high tensions and paranoia for mankind, and an aimless one for Heero Yuy. While trying to remedy the sense of something missing in his routine life, he suddenly decides to study a suspicious con artist, Duo Maxwell, on his paper on humanity.” taken from author’s summery. This author is more 1x2x1, but this story is a beautifully written 2x1, it’s a long read, but so freaken worth it!
Why I liked it: the author takes the reader on a intensely personal mediation of heroism and moral choices. Her style is rich and dreamlike in its telling, binding the reader with a captivating and violent charm. A powerful and though provoking piece, that wont leave the reader shell shocked in the end despite its ostensible journey through hell. A must read in my opinion.
Kaitsurinu has updated with the sequel to The One Eared Neko, a 1x2x1 Gundam Wing fic titled Pedigree. Both are worth reading because her writing is so well done, I’m shocked she is writing fan-fiction and not out making lot’s of money becoming a best selling author.
You can find her at: www.fanfiction.net/u/176174/
I also recommend How To Be Dead, and My Shinigami, My Hamburger. They are both very good reads. Her other fic’s, weather it be GW, or another fandom, are just as well written and beautiful.
