META: Looking for fics where the SI gets the love interest and the story keeps going

[robkelk]

Oh!  How did it take me so long to think of this?  Neon Exodus Evangelion is sortakinda an example, if you're one of those readers who insists DJ Croft is a "disguised" SI despite EPU's claims to the contrary.  The end of Apotheosis Now has DJ basically proposing to Asuka, and the fragmentary "sequel" material that's appeared in the years since make it clear that he made good on it, and they've been together for at least a couple decades after.

EDIT:  Also, I just found this on the Self-Insert Fic page at ATT, from the Literature section:

Halfway between fanfic and literature, in The Beekeeper's Apprentice we are introduced to Mary Russell. It is unrevealed whether her middle name is Sue, but Mary is a Sherlock Holmes fan who runs into the aging detective in Sussex (at a point after where the Conan Doyle stories end). Mary eventually gets a degree in theology and marries Holmes. She is of course written by an author who is a Sherlock Holmes fan with a degree in theology. However, the series is written by a professional author and you can buy it in bookstores.

It's referring to the "Mary Russell" series by Laurie R. King.

Thanks, Bob. They're going on the list.
