- HP: Light and Variable Winds, by downjune.
Luna has always had to be careful with emotion, thanks to an abundance of wild magic on her mother's side. With Harry, she finally feels safe.
-- > Great characterization. Absolutely love Luna here, Harry is great and the sex is hot too.

Legolas is sent to Erebor after the War of the Ring, where he's given the chance to meet up with Gimli again.
Predominantly book-verse. And I feel it should be subtitled "Adventures in Moodiness: Featuring an Elf and a Dwarf".
-- > Wonderful romance, with pining and great characterization.

AU in which John never gets to Antarctica. He and Rodney meet anyway. On Hawaii.
-- > This story blew me away when I first read it, and I've since re-read it a couple of times. It has wonderful character development and I love the interaction between John and Rodney. My heart breaks for both of them.
I love how the story plays out and I realized what happened to Rodney only at the end of it.

Where does Egeria come from?
-- > What might have been the beginning, very interesting view.

Maria Hill is not unaffected by the battle in New York (though she wishes she was). Being on leave is more of a challenge these days; she just can't believe that the world keeps spinning.
-- > Wonderful character study. Love the contrast between the city and Maria.

There is always something deeper to this, because nothing abnormal is simple.
-- > Ouch. This hurt, very much so. I still love it. Very subtle, very realistic. I could see this on the show, if it were ever inclined to go there.
