Recs- Yuletide 2008
Bend It Like Beckham
Of Scrooges and Sweets
Very cute Jess/Jules post-movie.
Big Bang Theory:
For Science!
This is just so awkward, which makes it so perfect because everyone here is so completely IC that it reads like a whacked-out missing scene.
The Failure
Gold, pure gold. Sheldon has to pretend to be Penny's boyfriend, she has to train him for the part. Obvious hijinks ensue. (plus bonus: Jealous!Leonard)
Diana Wynne Jones- Castle Series aka Howl
Song
A very sweet look at how Sophie and Howl fall in love.
How I Met Your Mother
Still a Little Hard to Say What's Going On
Reads like a missing bit from summer. Funny, and every character is spot-on.
John Paul Sartre- No Exit
The Psychopomp Hymnal
Chillingly perfect. I don't like to play favourites in Yuletide, but this is just so impressive.
L M Montgomery - Anne of Green Gables series
The Most Beautiful Woman of His Acquaintance
A drabble, but sweet and (I think) accurate nonetheless.
Love Actually
Someone You Love
Just what I (and probably most fangirls across the globe) needed. Carl and Sarah get a second chance!
Mythology - Greek and Roman
This Is Not A Chick Flick
This has been recced to high heaven so I won't say much about it. Just that it's a scream and you should go read it right away, if you haven't already.
Note on Classical Mythology fics: I think every one this year was truly outstanding. Go and read them all this very minute! I almost hated to choose between them because the pick was so good.
For more recs in Classical Mythology (and RPF - 16th-17th century ) see my previous post
RPF- Gossip Girl
Ed Westwick is Not a Repair Man
Crackfic for your girly side.
I am nowhere near finished crawling through the archive, but since I had these sitting here I figured I should get them out asap. No sense in waiting ages just for me to finish reading!
