The Mummy/The Mummy Returns
The Jealous Pharaoh's Sigh by yahtzee63
Hot hot hot Evie/Rick/Ardith Bey threesome, with a great, in-character rationale and a very sweet ending.
American Gods
Falling a Little Behind by fromherashes
Elegant and evocative story about Ibis and Horus, about the act of love and the act of writing, the push-pull of keeping one's distance v. inserting oneself into the story.
Tombstone
Blood and Whiskey by astolat
Truly amazing. There's some startlingly vivid imagery in this, and some good characterization and fun dialogue, as well, that really captures the spirit of Doc Holliday as he was in the movie. Excellent.
LA Confidential
Have I mentioned that LA Confidential is one of my favorite books of all time, and that I'm still bitter about the film losing the Oscar for Best Picture to that damn boat movie? Ahem. That has nothing to do with this.
Two Heroes by dsudis
Utterly FABulous fic. Bud's not cut out for smalltown living, and Lynn knows it.
Master and Commander (movie)
None So Blind by pun
A lovely bit of Master & Commander (movie) fic in which Stephen finally puts a name to what he's feeling.
The Bourne Identity/The Bourne Supremacy
Certain Dark Things by jae_w
Marie loves a killer. Beautiful exploration of how a life on the run means that even while everything around them changes, nothing changes at all. I wish I'd written this one - one of my favorites of the challenge.
