Today I'm doing my semi-weekly fanfic trawl and download (though I've been less regular lately since I'm going through the *longest fic slump ever*.  Either my standards have really raised or I'm having terrible luck lately, because it's been ages since I've found something I liked enough to rec) and stumbled across no less than 7 Merlin fics in a ( Read more... )

Tales from the House of the Moon

Six years after Naraku's defeat and Kagome's subsequent return to her own time, she hears a fairytale that sounds suspiciously like what might've happened to Sesshomaru and Rin after Kagome left.  In the hopes of saving them from a horrible fate, she returns, only to find that while six years had passed in her own ( Read more... )

I just finished a DADT fic that, like most of the genre, was about the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell (the rest of the genre, meanwhile, seems to be based around how much DADT made a gay soldier's life utter hell and tend to be depressing; I rarely read those).  It was a pretty good fic and I might have recced it, except for one thing: the author ( Read more... )

When Gaston goads the enchantress into recasting the Beast spell on the prince, she thinks he'll immediately revert back to a man because he's cured, right? Weeelll....

Before I start, I want to apologize for my lack of rants and recs of late.  RL has gotten hellishly busy in the last couple of months (and, honestly, isn't about to let up ( Read more... )

"This is my take on Harry and Snape having to marrage each other. Yes I know the idea has been done before but this is my take on it. It is slash so if you don't like then don't read. That simple. complete"

A summary:

[character redacted] goes to a will reading from an old girlfriend and finds out he has a child. [pairing redacted] Sorry the summary stinks I really am but the storys better hopefully I hope

Hm.  Somehow I'm not holding out much hope that the story's better than the summary.

The End of Days

Four or five years after the events of Labrynth (there seems to be some internal debate on this point), Sarah gets called back to a rapidly decaying Goblin Kingdom by Hoggle.

This one almost got a rec despite my qualms because it's really, really good for the majority of the fic.  The writing is far and away better than any other ( Read more... )

I tried to submit this through the appropriate feedback/suggestions section of the site and got a 500 error. Twice. Thus, I post it here, in the hopes that someone with influence will see it (or someone without influence will pass it on to someone who has it ( Read more... )
