Recs (Farscape, Angel, Heroes) and a ficlet (Alias)

[selenak]

Proof that I haven't completely become mono-fannishly, via fic recs:

Farscape

At the turn of the cyle: fabulous story about Stark and Scorpius meeting post-PKW. A quiet, intimate portrait, and astrogirl2 rocks my world.

Jossverse

Good meta on Darla and emotional co-dependence.


Heroes

Four Months, Four Holidays: Heidi Petrelli watches her marriage - and Nathan - break down. I wanted a Heidi pov on recent events after the last episode, and this one is perfect.


Also, aycheb, who is watching the first season, called the Petrellis a family of Laura Roslins, which if you watch BSG just fits perfectly, and added "it's not that they don't feel it's that none of them can help knowing how to 'use' those feelings". Too true. Is it any wonder I fell for them?


Alias: Speaking of people who know how to use feelings. I returned to My Darling Arvin and wrote a ficlet called Scar which deals with him and Jack post-Box in season 1.

Thank you for the Farscape rec. There seems to be a scarcity of fic from that fandom these days, especially stories involving Scorpius. :)

As I understand it there was a recent ficathon, and this is one of the results. kernezelda also posted an excellent story, about Chiana; I haven't checked out the others yet.

Oh, I had no idea. I'll see if I can track it down. Thank you.

The master list for the ficathon is here (http://kazbaby.livejournal.com/530584.html).

Actually, I just found it, but thank you. :)

BTW, I just friended your journal here and wanted to make sure you were okay with it?

[selenak.livejournal.com]

Absolutely.

Aw, thank you for the rec. Always great to know I'm doing some world-rocking. :)

There's been some pretty good stuff posted for that ficathon, I'm happy to say, and stories do seem to still be going up. So far I think my favorite may be scrubschick's Rygel story (http://scrubschick.livejournal.com/150075.html), but I admit to having something of a soft spot for a well-written Rygel.

Great recs, love the meta on Darla especially. And your Sloane story is well-timed for me, as I am currently rewatching Alias. Still very, very enjoyable.

Completely random aside: did you know that the second season of Dexter started yesterday?

Dexter: Yes, I know. I, um, might have watched the first two episodes earlier, but you remind me I can repost my reviews of same unlocked soon.

I, um, might have watched the first two episodes earlier

Now, that is something I *never* would have done. *cough* *goes looking for reviews*
