Goodbye Jurgen by

Heart Troubles by Katherine Gilbert ==== Alternative Universe

Heaven by Shrift

Set during Michael's early years in Section, this NC17-rated story is described by its author as both "a warped, dark piece" and "probably my favorite LFN story that I've written to date."

Jurgen, Michael's overly demanding 'trainer from hell,' intentionally forces him into a mission role he knows Michael will find repugnant. When Michael achieves early closure in securing the target, Jurgen deliberately delays sending in the retrieval team, although an anxious Walter keeps urging him to do so. Even if Michael comes out of this mission physically unscathed, Walter wonders if he will ever be the same. (Reviewed by EllenM)

Hit the Stage Dancing by Cynaera

Well, there really isn't any dancing, and I didn't come across the mention of a stage. But then the title of this delightful NC17 romp was never meant to be taken literally. As the story begins, Michael is uncomfortably in attendance at a soiree to which he has been coerced, by a woman of Operations' acquaintance. At the first honorable moment, he makes his excuses and escapes the party, into a waiting limousine he mistakenly thinks Operations had ordered. Who awaits him in that limousine, where they go and what they do there, will make you want to hit the stage, dancing, yourself. (Reviewed by EllenM)
