Title: Legend (2/2)
Fandom: Alexander the Great
Pairing: Alexander/Hephaistion

there are a whole lot of fics at maryrenaultfics and atgstories (i think that's the username). i don't read much (except for fire from heaven and the persian boy, lol) but i think there are some really good authors, esp. at the maryrenualtfics comm. omg, how exciting, if you got into this fandom too! i think there should be more people in it :)

JANE AUSTEN MOVIES <333 (btw, is your favourite one persuasion? i have no idea if it would be but that seems to be the general consensus amongst film-and-austen-literate people, hmph.) anyway, i think this thesis is an important one, not only for the explicit points which you have outlined but also because it speaks to DIRECT LINKAGE of austen and alexander the great. yes.

what can i possibly say that hasn't been said? this is absolutely heartrending [and i'm including both parts in this pseudo-review and how the hell did i miss that glorious part 1? dammit. oh yes. that was when i disappeared from lj. *much chagrined*] but in no way schmoopy. the dialogue, internal and external, is wonderful. the missing scene is... *bows at your feet* and you fangirl my writing? i feel i should do something overly dramatic here, like rending my raiments and pouring ash over my head. this is fanfuckingtastic and you SO need to write more. please?
