The femgenficathon is a shiny, shiny present to fandom, and next year with hopefully more time I must participate. This year, I just enjoy reading the stories, especially these:

Harry Potter:

Family Ties: Andromeda Black, mother of Tonks and sister to Narcissa and Bellatrix, is one of those characters in the background of the Potter saga whom I always wish we'd seen more of (she seems to have pulled off Sirius' rebellion before he did, only without the melodrama, for starters), and I love it when fanfiction provides, especially as well written as this one. Whether it's her relationship with her sisters, Narcissa especially, or her reaction to the fate of her daughter, it's magnificently rendered.

West Wing:

Life Less Ordinary: in which Amy Gardner suggests CJ should campaign for president. This story has basically every female character of the show working together, and I love how well it renders their voices, CJ's potential Vice President candidate, CJ in general, and the casual Donna/Amy because, yes. Excellent Danny as well.

The Sarah Connor Chronicles:

Mold a figure of me: Felicia Burnett (from The Good Wound) is one of those one-shot characters the show does so well, and here we get more of her, what happened to her after Sarah left, and how she figures out (partially) the puzzle Sarah left her. I loved reading this.

Lastly, because I'm still in the mood: have a short clip from a mid-60s press conference illustrating why the Beatles were always good for quotes and turning interviews into verbal ping pong:

Isn't it just?! It makes me fannishly happy for weeks.

Thanks for the rec! And I'd missed the HP story, off to read.
