some things currently being AWESOME on the internet
* Master & Commander AU Sherlock Holmes art. SO. AMAZING. (ATTACKED BY ROGUE PIRATES. WATSON IS SUCH A CRACKSHOT.)
* Perpetuum Jazzile doing Toto's Africa -- this is an old old link that we watched in choir last year to get inspiration for our own rendition of a very similar vocal arrangement. We did not have an AWESOME BEATBOXER, however, so they win.
* White Collar fandom is being pretty damn amazing on the Neal/Peter/Elizabeth front, so have a few recs: Contractual Obligations: A Love Story in Three Traffic Lights by shaenie is an amazing, intricate, kind of brutal fic that is mostly a negotiation between three very smart and very complicated people. I'm not sure I buy some aspects of the characterisation entirely, but it's good enough and intelligent enough that I am fully prepared to accept these versions of the characters for the duration of the story. Figure It Out by lightgetsin has a very satisfying and well-paced balance of plot, sex, and Peter's Dominance Issues (hello, my favourite thing about this fandom). Plus of course there's Taking Liberties by astolat, in which NOBODY IS SURPRISED that astolat writes these characters perfectly.
* Eyaiverse, as ever. I reread bits and pieces of these stories whenever I want to be cheered up. I am so fond of every single one of those characters <3 (Fry! We need to add the eYuletide fics to that list.)
* My best friend is pretty awesome sometimes, and by sometimes I mean ALWAYS.
