KGB prison, vampires

[metabolick.livejournal.com]

#1: Bodie rescues Doyle from a KGB prison in Russia. (I think this is either online or on the Proslib cd.)

#2: Bodie goes to New York on a job and disappears. Doyle and Murphy go to find him. It turns out that B has become a vampire. He turns D into a vampire. M returns to London to report on what happened. (This may be in a zine.)

Can anyone identify either of these stories? Ta much in advance.

#1: is it, Reunited, by Ashlea

No, that's not it. But thanks for trying.

My memory of the story is somewhat vague, but I think Bodie actually sneaks into the prison in Russia to get Doyle out. It's out in the country somewhere and B has a car outside the prison to make their getaway.

I know which one you mean, but can't remember the title or author.
And the other one rings a bell, too...

Sorry for being totally unhelpful!

On second thought, could the vampire fic be "Kindred Spirits" in the zine "Beguiled"?

I was asking about the vampire one for a mate; I haven't read it myself. I'll ask her and get back to you on it. Thanks for the suggestion.

And I've just been informed by my mate that you are correct with the vampire story too. You are now my go-to agent for story id. ;-) Ta so much!

It was a fluke and will probably never happen again! *g*
Normally, I'm the one asking!

Glad to have been of assistance!

I totally know the fic you mean, but can't for the life of me think of its title or author... I have a feeling it was mentioned on the comms somewhere recently too (unless that was still you, looking for it! *g*) I remember them on a boat, a Swedish or Norwegian captain?, and Doyle being really poorly... and CI5 could only openly help after they'd got so far? No help at all, am I - but I'll keep thinking!

[scherwood]

No problem~

I'm sorry, but I have no idea what texts you are looking for. Good luck in finding them. :)

Puppets on a String by Tessa Rae?

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Yes! At least, that was the one I was thinking of, not sure if it's the one metabolick was thinking of... *g* I always forget that Losada start, though...

[metabolick.livejournal.com]

I forgot the Losada start, too. I was asking about the story because I want to suggest it for your "lads outside of the UK" list.

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Oh - see, I knew there was a conversation, I just couldn't remember that it was actually for me... *headdesk* But yes - that definitely fits the list, thank you! *g*

[metabolick.livejournal.com]

Heh. You're not misremembering any conversation because I've not mentioned it to you before. I just thought that if I could find out the title I would then suggest it for your list. Same with the NY vampire story, which has been identified (see above) by the brilliant siskiou! :-D

[siskiou.livejournal.com]

It was your mentioning the swedish captain that helped me find it! :)
It provided the perfect search word to use for a file search.

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Hee - except he wasn't actually Swedish was he! They sailed to Sweden though, so at least I was in the right country! *g*

[siskiou.livejournal.com]

No, he wasn't!
But the word "swedish" is used several time in the story, so it came up as one of only three pros fics with it included. *g*
KGB and russian, which I tried before, brought up a multitude of choices!

[metabolick.livejournal.com]

Yes! That's definitely the one. Thank you soooo much.

[siskiou.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! :)
I may re-read this today. *g*
