Recs

[selenak]

Heroes:

Natural Devolution: set pre-show, but has some season 2 spoilers: Noah Bennet and Sandra. Guest-starring Elle and Bob. This brings out the horror of what Noah did to Sandra and his own screwed-upness as few fanfics do.

House:

Interlude: Amber during the season 4 finale. A while ago I linked to a meta which made a convincing case for season 4 having been the season of Amber Volakis, but it's not exactly reflected in fanfiction. Here is a superb take on her.

Tomorrow: and this is House during and after the season finale, and Cuddy, and Wilson. If I have one complaint about s4, it's that there wasn't enough Cuddy, but again, we have fanfic. The House portrait is fantastic.


Doctor Who:

Fear of the Dark: a fantastic story, hard to describe. Gallifreyan myths and linguistics, season 4 themes, the Doctor and the Master, all of it written by ariastar who is responsible for my all time favourite AU s4 written during the hiatus, dwseason4.

Thank you lots for the DW rec - and all the other recs you keep bringing. There's far too much stuff out there for me to even *begin* to sift through, but you've not steered me wrong yet.

Oh and I *finally* updated my Jack-is-the-Immortal fic (You did see the Darla/Jack/Dru part right?). Although you seem to have plenty on your plate... how do you find the time?

Thanks for the Amber rec, I can't seem to find much Amber fic, and I really want it. And Sandra fic! That must be good. *goes to read*

The Heroes rec sounds very intriguing, and I shall have to bookmark it for some fanfic reading over the week-end. I found Noah's behaviour towards his wife deeply problematic, but I'm not sure whether the show itself acknowledges that. Thanks for drawing my attention to this story!
