i've been reading lotrips for a very long while now, and i've recently started going through the fics posted on this community from it's beginning.

i was reminded of a fic that i read maybe a year ago, and i can't find it anywhere. it's slowly driving me insane, so if anyone has any knowledge of the fic i'm talking about, i would be eternally grateful for your assistance.

it's elijah/billy, set in the future. billy has gotten into some sort of accident, and he loses his memory. the rest of the fic is basically just about his recovery. i think at the outset of the story billy and elijah are "married" or whatever.

so yeah, thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Hmmmm..I've read a Dom loses memory fic, but not a Billy. Sorry!

Oooh, do you remember what the Dom-loses-memory one was? I don't think I've read it...

It's on the HEM, I don't know where else it is archived.

Don't know the story, but perhaps you can try lotrips_finders? There to help and find most fic that people loose or can't remember the author name of. Really good.

The story you're looking for is called 'The World Outside' I think. Last time I was looking for it I found it on google by typing 'the world outside billy elijah'.
For some reason my computer wont let me open google anymore, so if you do find it could you post the link here? Thanks:)

oh my goodness, i'm overjoyed that you're familiar with this story!

but i still can't find it! i tried what you said, but to no avail. regardless, thanks so much for your help.

I love that story:) First Billy/Elijah I ever read and still one of the best. Could have been overly melodramatic due to the subject matter, but it was handled really well.
I wish i'd gotten into the habit of saving fics:(
I think I found it on Cache on google last time anyway, the page has probably been deleted. I'm going to try various search engines and see if I can turn something up..I really want to read it again!

it makes me so sad when good fics disappear. let me know if you find anything. i'll keep looking too.
