Fic Recs: Gilmore Girls (Lit)

Jun 16, 2007 21:52

I'm not entirely sure how many people on my FList are at all interested in the Gilmore Girls fandom, but having read a number of lovely Rory/Jess Lit fic lately, I felt the need to rec a few pieces :)

Ventricles - Link
Author: FallAway (on FF.net)
Summary: AU, Post Season Three. Connecticut seems like it’s not even on the map anymore. Jess. Rory. Oneshot.

I love the langauge, I love the story... I can't get over this fic. Seriously.

Annabel Lee - Link
Author: Trappedinpast (on FF.net)
Summary: He doesn’t feel like he can be the one to dilute her purity with alcohol. Leave that to her asshole fiancé. No, he breaks her in other ways. Literati. Oneshot.

"He’s so gentle that she thinks maybe he’s never really wanted to hurt her, not in the honest-to-God way, and there’s less Othello in him than she imagined." If I could live inside this sentence I would. Fantastic and painful.

What Could Have Been - Link
Author: Zylona (on FF.net)
Summary: Five times Rory missed Jess after season 3. AU post7x21.

I want to wallow in this writing. Is that strange? It just has a wallowy, deep, substantial kind of quality. Seriously superb.

Footnotes - Link
Author: Fair-Ithil (on FF.net)
Summary: He didn’t leave a lot when he went. A handful of CDs and dozens of margins-not enough words that were theirs and too many that were his...Rory, Jess, the words that made them.

I am in love with this. Each line, each scene is powerful on its own, but put them together and it's happiness in paragraph form. "But they liked to give each other credit because, underneath it all, they were both romantics who liked the way the whole idea worked out on paper."

Fire Alarms - Link
Author:
ava_leigh_fitz
Summary: In a sea of brightly colored paperbacks and scholarly tomes, the simple grey with only a title stands out. [FutureLiterati]

I love how her prose flows. It never feels like contrived poetry hiding in paragraph form. It’s evocative and simple and full of lovely statements that get right to the heart of the issue. Love it.
Hope these are of some use to someone :)
