Gone, Five Things That Probably Didn't Happen To Hugo Reyes
Today's recs is a Hurley twofer, in honor of everybody's favorite dude.
Claim: Lost: General Series
Prompt: 26 - Death
Title: Gone
Author:
isis2015
Rating: PG
Length: Short
Brief summary: First off, it's Hurley/Starla, and Hurley/Starla is one of those lovely, underrated little pairings. Quiet and painful and sad, this little fic manages to hit just the right note with their relationship, and with Hurley's self-image and perception of the curse that surrounds him. Wonderful, but too short to include an excerpt here.

Rating: PG-13
Length: Long
Brief summary: Funny and clever and well thought-out: five vignettes detailing possible but unlikely backstories for Hurley, some crossovers, some not. Written prior to Numbers original airing, but the possibilities still hold up. And Hurley's characterization is nailed.
Every cough he heard in the terminal made him flinch.
It shouldn't have. He'd had every vaccination possible and even a few others that were more of the "just-in-case" variety than usual. Either he'd been imagining it, or at least one of the needles he'd been stuck with was to protect him against the Black Plague.
You know, which would have been comforting, if he'd planned on making a side trip to 14th-century Europe.
Hurley frowned and took another bite out of his chocolate bar. He couldn't get good chocolate back home if he tried, most of the good stuff long gone since before the plague. Hell, he'd packed enough chocolate bars to last him a year if he held out, but he was pretty sure he'd bid all of his luggage but his carry-on bag a fond farewell forever when he'd checked it.
Before he got on the plane, Hurley counted seven coughs, two loud sniffles, and at least one ominous throat-clearing. He couldn't get onto the plane fast enough.
And if the guy sitting across from him on the plane sneezed once ... well, Hurley couldn't be faulted for hoping he got sucked out of the the plane when the tail fell off. Now, could he?
