brigdhFive stories the Reader never began - If On A Winter's Night a Traveler. So, I've never read this canon, and yet this story is awesome. It is all about fandom: IRC and fandomwank and sock-puppets and old archives and geocities and OMG I love it. This is wonderful, absolutely.
Drabbling in Archaeology - Archaeology RPF. And on the other hand, I think I may be the only one to know this canon. But, but it's about archaeology! All the little fiddly bits and gossip and clearly the author knows what she's talking about. I am in love. It's also beautifully written, but to be honest, I don't know how much sense this would make without knowing the background.
the more you try to erase me - Hip Hop RPF. Kanye West/Lupe Fiasco. The Kanye voice is hilarious. This story is surprisingly touching, and o so much fun. I quote:
"Never change, Ye," Lupe tells him and heads into the hallway.
"So you'll get back to me about the blowjob?" Kanye yells down the hallway. A hotel maid looks up from her cleaning cart, eyes wide and Kanye just waves.
[I succeeded in crawling into the breast of my big boss!] - Maru. OK. I kept seeing this story rec'd, but I thought to myself, 'how could someone possibly write an interesting story about a cat?' Well, turns out that it's possible. This story is wonderful and just perfect. Another quote:
I am Maru. I am perfect, untouchable.
My purity is unparalleled, unmatched by such tawdry phenomena as undriven snow or the vacuum of space. A matrix of order and a fount of cosmic alignment, I – Maru – set confusion aright and wipe away all worldly stains. Harmony shimmers around my immaculate form.
I am Maru, and I have been sitting in a fruit bowl licking myself for over four hours.
If You Find Me Lying On My Side - The Devil Wears Prada. Zombies invade the Runway offices. Come on, zombies make everything better. This is awesome and hilarious.
Gifts of Love - The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency. A mystery at the orphanage. This story is sweet and captures the voice of the books exactly. I just adore this story; it's so lovely.
