I know you don't particularly like AUs, but since you're a Jane Mailander fan, may I suggest her B & D's Excellent Adventures? It's a zine made up of a mix of gen and slash (frankly =more= gen than slash) stories. I'm particularly fond of the Indiana Jones takeoff, the Kafka story (which many people don't like, so be warned), and the pirate tale. Really, the only one I didn't like was the Titanic story, because I felt it wasn't as well written as the others (it felt more like it had been rushed together and had too many "guest stars" for my taste).

I don't know what you know about these stories, but the basic gist of them is that, in them, the boys, for reasons they most definitely do not understand, are thrown into different eras, different personas without warning (kind of like Quantum Leap). Each and every time, they remember who they truly are, both during and after the fact. In each scenario, they need to accomplish something before they'll be allowed to go home. Often, other canon characters show up as well. Usually, they are unaware of who they normally are.

Also, Jane's Beauty and the Beast take-off and Little Merman are quite good too (on the Circuit Archive). I just can't bring myself to read Land Bridge, though I understand from many the series is excellent.
