Small Fandoms

Oct 21, 2008 16:23

As a belated birthday present to myself, I'm seeking small fandom recs. The full list of small fandoms I currently read is below, but I'm pretty open to reading any small fandom, even ones that I've never read before. I read slash, het, and (occasionally) gen. All I ask is that the stories be completed and that they have a happy ending.

A few ( Read more... )

*multi-fandom, *het, *classics, *slash, *anime, *comics_fandom, *gen, *book_fandom, *books, *westerns, *movie_fandom

jane_elliot October 21 2008, 22:52:58 UTC

*flails* Yes! Thank you!

No problem. There are also Iron Man recs here: http://unfitforsociety.livejournal.com/tag/iron+man

Thanks again:)

It's past my bedtime and I'm beat, but tomorrow I could rec a few good Tony/JARVIS fics - not many, as I haven't read all that much of them, but I found a few really good ones over at alowprofile that I could share. (In the meantime, here one freebie ;-) : while I was looking for that comm I stumbled over Real Friends Help You Get Naked by hackthis which would be the ultimate Tony/everything (sentient to some extent, that is) *and* everyone in his lab, if it had just been more than PG-13 rated. ;-D )

Oh, and fly-by 'Good Omens' Crowley/Aziraphale rec, since I stumbled over it recently and spent lots of time blinking and thinking why in the heck I hadn't read it *ages* ago: A Precise and Accurate History of Monday, Eleven Years Later by giddygeek.

jane_elliot October 21 2008, 23:07:43 UTC

Whee! Thank you! (In advance, even:)

Turns out I've read even fewer IM fics than I had originally thought, but here goes anyway:

Some Tony/Jarvis:

The Body Electric by empy, R, in which Jarvis has been making changes within his code and Tony discovers he never intended some of them - but deep down inside he can't admit to minding them, either.

"Full of Surprises" (part one, two, three, four, five and six by ladylahatiel, NC-17, While Tony was away, Jarvis changed. Tony is about to find out just how much. - in which Tony gets surprised by his enterprising AI, who now comes *cough*blush*badpun* complete with a holographic self-image, and seems to have developed a disturbing ability, or shall we say tendency, to er, flirt. ;-)

Odyssey of the Mind by veldeia, PG-13, He woke up with no memory at all, in a small white room, in the company of a man called Jarvis, who told him that his name was Tony Stark... - in which Tony is struggling to get his memory back, Jarvis is a very attentive nursemaid, and Peper ends up gaining something dispite the big loss, i.e. angst, romance and flashbacks ahoy ( ... )

jane_elliot October 22 2008, 15:08:20 UTC

Dude. I would never have even considered Tony/Jarvis and now I'm all kinds of excited to read it. Thank you!

And I'm also totally on board with crossovers -- when I said Tony/anyone, I really meant Tony/*anyone*. The man could flirt with a brick wall, I tell you (as long as said wall is shiny and has a top-notch AI at any rate:)

Thanks again!

AGH. I just read some good Gosford Park and damn me if I can remember where it was. Check out Yuletide. Though none of those are the stories I read. Hmm.

Dammit. Now I remember what I forgot to rec for Yuletide.

jane_elliot October 22 2008, 00:24:56 UTC

Heh. I've totally cleaned out Yuletide (as well as ff.net -- darn it, I read way too quickly...)

If you think of the other fic, I'd very much like to read it. Thanks!

msmcknittington October 22 2008, 00:43:05 UTC

Ah, I should have known, but it's always worth mentioning, right?

I did some sleuthing on LJ, and found these via the gosfordpark comm.

LJ Comm fic master list

Another list, though it looks like it all might be more of the same

Have you read Days May Pass and Years May Pass? Mary/Robert, at the beginning of WWII. There's another one, too, where Mary goes to London just before the war and ends up working at an orphanage that's quite good. None of the titles that are linked there are ringing any bells. It might have been on FF.net.

jane_elliot October 22 2008, 00:48:52 UTC

Eee! Gosford Park links! You are my hero:)

(BTW, I've definitely read the Mary working at an orphanage one, so it was probably at ff.net -- LJ and I don't generally get along when I'm searching for fic without help.)

Also, yay North and South (based on your icon:) I can't understand why there aren't more N&S fics out there after that fabulous mini-series...

For Dresden fics, read everything by thehoyden!

Thank you!
