Show me the shiny, yes?

So... avatar_recfest has sadly not been active at all. I mean, since the finale, the fandom has slowed down a bit and maybe the rounds of fic requests are not working as much as I had hoped ( Read more... )

Under Wicked Sky ratticus_ratti March 16 2007, 14:26:30 UTC
Title: Under Wicked Sky
Author: pseudonyme (lj - writing journal)
Rating: M
Ships?/Gen?: Action/Adventure/Angst, Zuko/Sokka that works
Warnings: Slash, some rape, lotsa angst.
Summary: During a raid Zhao captures Zuko and Sokka. They escape, but surviving the uncharted earthebender territory and each other is the real challenge.
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2428065/1/
What you like about it (optional, but highly suggested): Aside from some Zukka fic that isn't cheesy or OOC? The action was fun, and they were in character. The plot on its own is worth reading this for, IMO, even if you're not a huge fan of the pairing. Also, it's complete! ^___^

Agree. Just read it. Aside for a few misplaced commas (story needed a once-over revision), it was well written.

Completely agreed. As one of the first Avatar slash stories I read, it made a great impression on me.

Perceiver ratticus_ratti March 16 2007, 14:32:26 UTC
Title: Perceiver
Author: helium_lost, bittersweet_ink (writing/art journal)
Rating: K+
Ships?/Gen?: General with mention of Sokka/Toph (one-sided)
Warnings: ... Breathtaking?
Summary: She doesn't see the way you do-no, she's not like you at all. Five Toph-centric drabbles based on the five senses.
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3365792/1/
What you like about it (optional, but highly suggested): Well, when I first read it, I was speechless. My review makes me look schizophrenic or something. It's just beautiful, and in character.

Odd Couples ratticus_ratti March 16 2007, 14:39:55 UTC
Title: Odd Couples
Author: teashoppegirls
Rating: T
Ships?/Gen?: General - and man, every drabble is a different pairing!
Warnings: Drabbles and crack pairings!
Summary: Collection of very short one shots about odd pairings. Current couple: Aang x Ty Lee.
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2779947/41/
What you like about it (optional, but highly suggested): Because they're so much fun and a really quick and light read. And I love Iroh's Tea Shoppe Girls.

great thread idea! birdsarecalling March 16 2007, 14:56:01 UTC
Title: She Dreams in Color
Author: sophiap
Rating: G
Gen: Toph gen
Warnings: None!
Summary: "Toph may be blind, but she knows what white is."
Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3411516/3/
What I like: All of Sophia Prester's Avatar vignettes are clever, but this is my absolute favorite. It's the best take I've seen on the sensory reality of Toph's blindness.

MODLY COMMENT dharmavati March 23 2007, 02:23:35 UTC
I want to add this fic to the list... but there is some confusion. I understand that this is a standalone chapter in a fic that is basically a collection of stories. Normally, I would have been okay with that... but someone has recced the entire story in a separate rec below.

So I want to know: Would you like to recommend the entire story? Please reply to this comment. Thank you!
