Quick birthday wishes + recs...
The happiest of birthdays to mysid! Hope you've had a great day. :-)
And an early happy birthday to freakykat! Hope it's wonderful.
A few quick recs:
HP Fic: The Inevitable Hour by Anonymous (Fred/Angelina(/George), NC-17, canon character death)
Yeah, I don't read this pairing either, but this fic is just beautifully, beautifully done. It's told from Angelina's POV, and she's close enough to both twins (but particularly Fred, of course) that she can see the serious and vulnerable side that they normally keep hidden. The title is fitting; the whole piece has a certain air of quiet inevitability that works well with the wartime setting.
HP Fic: Top Marks by Anonymous (Charlie/Percy, NC-17, incest, underage Percy)
I think it can be difficult to pull off an incest story without some undertone of creepiness or wrongness, but IMO this author has managed it. This fic is sweet, funny and sexy, and it feels right for these characters. I am a shameless Charlie fangirl, of course, and he's wonderful here in the role of sex educator for a young, very eager-to-learn Percy. :-)
QaF Fic: Verbage by
dirtylttlescret (the gang, no rating)
This little ficlet absolutely cracked me up this morning. I love stories about the whole gang, especially when the author captures each character's voice so accurately. As you read this, you can just see everybody hanging out playing Scrabble and ragging on each other. And you couldn't ask for a more delightfully snarky Hunter. :-D Love.
See something you like? Leave the author a little love!
