Yuletide Recs
I'm rather late with my recs, but they're still heart-felt. There were some wonderful stories in both the main collection and the treat ones, so here we go!
First off, my wonderful gift:
The Movies Never Get It Right - Anonymous - "Killer Queen" by Queen - Following the life of a spy who is being spied on, the offer made to her, and the surprise twist at the end. Loads of fun and really well-written. I love the level of descrition.
Then I received a pair of treats:
Never Fully Dressed without a Knife - Anonymous - "Killer Queen" by Queen - A brief look at a very powerful woman.
It's an Okay Life - Anonymous - It's a Wonderful Life - Finally, a plausible explanation why Mary is completely tragic in George's vision of a future without him.
Other wonderful fics:
Follow the Leader - Anonymous - The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney) - A little treat of Quasi being able to live a happily ever after surrounded by love.
O Kindness - Anonymous - Gone with the Wind - A little scene between Ella, Scarlett's first daughter, and Rhett, who always was kind to children.
Protagonist - Anonymous - Animaniacs - Dot and Hello Nurse chat for a bit.
Circle Round - Anonymous - Mary Poppins - A moment between Mary and Bert which turns into a very long time.
Willie Scott and the Accidental Child Acquisition - Anonymous - Indiana Jones - Answering the question of whatever happened to Shortround, and answering it perfectly.
Peerless - Anonymous - The Iliad - Achilles and Patroclus, happily in love, then in war, and finally in death.
Five Songs Sung on the Slaked Vengeance - Anonymous - The Princess Bride - Fezzik and Inigo taking up the pirate business and generally having a lovely time. The last one in particular was wonderful.
More recs to come after reveals!
