Fan Fic: Reunion TF 2

Reunion

is a Team Fortress 2 fan fiction written by Big Name Fan Cat Bountry. It tells the story of the RED team having a big reunion at Engineer's house after 8 years. More of a drama than a comedy, it focuses on the relationships between the characters, romantic and otherwise, and how they have changed since the end of the war. Not everyone went on to lead successful lives after the war. Notably, Pyro is a hobo in New York City and Soldier has an abusive and manipulative brother controlling his life.

The sequel, Afterwards

, continues the story, focusing more on the Soldier's brother, Johnny, and the team trying to rescue Pyro from his life of squalor. It's noticeably Darker and Edgier than Reunion, and both are at least the length of short novels.

Afterwards isn't even really finished, the segment listed above being titled, "Book 1."

Both stories show examples of

Straight Gay: Heavy and Medic.
Vitriolic Best Buds: Basically everyone on the Team, naturally.
Funetik Aksent: Ze Medic, as well as the Heavy, Demoman, and Sniper at times.
There Are No Therapists: Subverted.

Reunion shows examples of

Jerkass: Soldier is very rude towards Heavy, Medic, and Sniper. Well, everyone really. But he mellows out as the story progresses.
Your Mom: Spy constantly reminds Scout that he has been bonking his mother.

Afterwards shows examples of

Curb-Stomp Battle Engineer, Heavy, and Soldier vs. Johnny.
Force Feeding: Someone tried to blackmail the Medic long time ago, he escaped. "But zat was after I pulled out all his teezh, fed him his own testicles, drilled a hole into his skull and zen poured in ze acid�"
Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil/ Rape as Drama : Johnny raped Soldier, when they were kids.
It Runs in the Family: The Doe family is batshit insane.
The Cameo: Scout appears in the very last chapter, calling over the phone during the fight with Johnny.
The Faceless: Pyro.
