Hey Guys,
I was wondering if any of you lovely people would happen to have saved a copy of either of the following two stories. The first one was a FanFic from about 2007/2008, it was a Tamora Pierce Fanfic set in a sort of medieval world, where there were two twin brothers. One was strong and successful, the other was called Jameson, and he had been poisoned as a small child and had been left disabled as a result. Someone had tried to kill the twins to steal their fortune or something. Anyway, both boys got sent to the Kings residence, the fit one to become a squire, and Jameson ended up studying to become an apothecary or something like that.
The author deleted and removed all their fanfic in about 2009, and i've been hunting for it ever since. I just thought i would try here. *Edit - Story name was "Out of Place" and the author was called Lady Jane Scribbles.
The second story is one that i'm pretty sure was posted on the Paradevo site at some point. All i remember about it was that there was a guy who had CP (i think), he was working as a bouncer in his brother's club or something, and he met a girl there, he was sitting on a stool at the entrance. It was deleted off here a good few years ago, but if anyone has a copy, or know's who wrote it, I would be super appreciative if you could send it on!
I'm almost certain its all a lost cause but i figure its all worth a shot.
TIA!

I tried finding your stories using different combinations of keywords, but sadly nope.  I admit I have been looking for a text I read last year but I am completely unable to find, it was a text written by a guy describing how he feels about people, even his parents, viewing him as assexual contrasting to his feelings, it was very touching. With internet I thought that I would always be able to find again, but no, I don´t even remember in which language I read. |

Thanks @malibu, appreciate it. I know for a fact that the story from FanFiction.net, "Out of Place", is NOWHERE on the internet. i even contacted the author many times begging for a copy, but she wouldnt give me one. The second story was definitely on the stories part of this site. but the author of that one took it down to "re-work" it, and it never came back again.

the second story was called lucky 13. it was a great story and got a couple of chapters. the author, at one point, rewrote the first chapter to make it better, and there was some talk about not rewriting things and posting again, and after that, the whole story disappeared. i was quite sad about that....

If that's the story (?), I may have her email address. I used to chat with her. That is totally the one! OMG! Ive been wanting to read those few chapters again for years now. If you could ask her for the original version I would be forever grateful!! |

I sent her an email to the address that I had. I'm not sure if she still uses that email address, but if she does, I'll put her in touch with you. I seem to remember that when she left the site, there was some sort of conflict and a fair amount of anger involved. Yikes! That doesn't sound good. My fingers and toes are crossed!! |

After the most stressful day at work ever, i really do now have my fingers and toes crossed! Thank you so much annabelle, you have no idea how much this means to me. |

I only sort of remember what happened, but I know some people got very angry. That was the plagiarism thing, right? If it's who I'm thinking of, then yes. |

I don't know if your request is still current, and also if "nowhere on the internet" includes the wayback machine. But just in case, and on the off chance that you still have a bookmark for this story, it might be worth running it through web.archive.org. I've been occasionally lucky even when everything else failed. |

Sometimes if you use waybackmachine (can't remember if it is a .com or something different) you can access old webpages and find it that way. I've done that with some of my favorite FF that got taken down!

You can find it by googling for "wayback machine", or use the link to it I just posted, which is web.archive.org. waybackmachine.org also works in redirecting you there. |

Thanks @celaena and @ynis_Ainu, I tried that years ago unfortunately. That FF story is lost to the ages it seems.. |
