[livejournal.com profile] jaybee65 and I finally got around to another round of updates at [livejournal.com profile] wehave_nolife, with a bunch of Yuletide recs. Another set of non-Yuletide fic will be up... shortly.

For the record, we weren't actually procrastinating. We were biding our time, waiting for the right moment. Mwahahaha. Ahem.

ENOUGH WITH THE BUFFY HATE ALREADY!

*calms down*

The [livejournal.com profile] buffy_love comm is hosting the Buffy Love Month now - while I haven't been able to follow everything that's been posted (freaking RL), I've enjoyed most of the stuff I *have* read.

+Recs

Ice Capades by [livejournal.com profile] karabair Buffy, gen, post-Chosen Buffy in Boston, slaying and going to college and being Buffy. The Buffy-Hank interaction broke my heart.

"Please. It's a bullshit media studies seminar. Nobody does the reading." The girl who might be Iris pushes dark-framed glasses back on her nose. The gesture makes her look very serious, and Buffy wonders if she should invest in a pair. Maybe then professors would stop taking her for an easy target. And maybe you should change your name to Myrtle. And oh, yeah, stop falling asleep in class.

A More Excellent Sacrifice Buffy, Faith, post-Chosen Guh. Buffy and Faith in Rome. The Buffy/Faith dynamic is *perfect*.

As Buffy fell into step beside the other girl, and they wandered aimlessly through the Roman streets, Faith wondered, “Well, you’ve moved on. To Gianluca.” Only the way she said his name made it seem like he was a porn star, in contrast to the severity of tone Buffy was used to associating with the Immortal.

*happy sigh*

Dear Fandom,

When I read the Narnia books all those years ago and fell in love with the world and the characters, I had no idea that I ship Peter/Susan. Thank you for showing me the light.

Love,
Swatkat

Practical by [livejournal.com profile] musesfool (Peter/Susan implied, Lucy) God, this fic is so *gorgeous* and heartbreaking. *So* gorgeous. The Lucy POV is perfect, and touches me in a way I can’t explain. Read, and cry.

Boys and Lipsticks (Susan)
Delight (Edmund)
Through the Doors (Peter)
What She Found There (Lucy)

by [livejournal.com profile] sloanesomething (Peter/Susan, Edmund/White Witch, Lucy/Tumnus)

The characterisations in these stories are unlike anything I've ever read in Narnia, and you know what? They work. It's surprisingly dark, and after you're done reading you realise that that's the way it should be. Fairy tales are never as fluffy as they appear to be. Heartbreaking and beautiful in a shivery sort of way.

Five Weird Habits, because [livejournal.com profile] jaybee65 and [livejournal.com profile] msgenevieve told me to *g*: cut for the rest )

Everyone do this meme. It's a cool meme!
