brushed with the Irish - part one

This is an old one - originally posted as a Halloween fic a couple of years ago, but it's St Pat's Day, and as it's been brushed by the Irish, I thought "why not?".

So for those of you who haven't read it before ...

My True Love Hath My Heart - part two

Here is the second part

Summary: Brian heartless? Maybe there's a reason &

Warnings: Very definitely AU, and of course a sprinkling of the supernatural as is fitting for an Irish story. I have borrowed bits from the tales of Tam Lyn, and of the Snow Queen, and thrown in some Irish myths of the Tuatha De Danann, the Shining Ones, for good measure. However, I have molded each of these to my own purpose, so purists, beware.

Notes: This starts immediately after the guys get back from New York (ep 110). In the flower display at Molly’s party there’s a cutout pumpkin face, so I’m assuming that her party was just before Halloween (which in 2000 fell on a Tuesday).

There are many love spells for Halloween, apparently dating from when Samhain was the beginning of the New Year. The one included is a mix of several, although I made up the chant which is pure nonsense.

Ó Cionnaoith is the Gaelic form for the name from which ‘Kinney’ is derived. The family motto is ‘Truth is always great’, which has nothing to do with the fic, but which I throw in because it seems particularly apt for Brian.

(LJ is playing tricks and won't let me post it in a single post, so it will be in two parts.)
