After having enjoyed [personal profile] liz_marcs' epic Dead Like Me/BtVS crossover a couple of weeks ago, I was in the mood for more Dead Like Me fanfic. So I checked out the usual suspects and found out what fanfic exists seems to be, at least at first glance, dominated by... George/Mason fanfic. Now I haven't watched the movie, granted, and maybe everything changes, but based on the two seasons I was, shall we say, a tad surprised. Which might be a case like me watching The West Wing and wondering in bafflement where all the CJ/Toby fanfic comes from. (Until [personal profile] skywaterblue educated me, and now I can at least see the signs for "used to have a thing ages ago" with CJ and Toby, though I still can't see any signs for them wanting more of same in the present.)

So, in case I'm overlooking something glaringly obvious, please, oh flist, tell me: does the George/Mason come anywhere aside from him being the younger and more physically attractive of the two male regulars? What with him being into Daisy and her treating him like a screwed-up brother she feels sort of responsible for, I mean.

Also, if someone has good Dead Like Me fanfic to recommend, I'd be grateful.

Doctor Who/ Sarah Jane Adventures:

Family Documents: in which the Doctor, Sarah Jane and Luke discover they're related. Sort of. Absolutely adorable.

Doctor Who/Torchwood:

Persistence of Memory: in which Martha Jones meets the Torchwood team twice over, courtesy of the year that wasn't. Haunting and beautiful, and a great character exploration both of Martha and the Torchwoodians.

Dead Like Me/ Buffy the Vampire Slayer:

Reaping the Whirlwind: in which Dawn Summers becomes a Reaper. Written from George's pov, this lengthy, plotty story is awesome to read, especially if you're a fan of Bryan Fuller's show (which I personally prefered to his later Pushing Daisies - I like some acid in my supernatural cuteness); the BTVS characters who show up, mainly Dawn, Xander and Buffy, are all perfectly realized as well.

Harry Potter:

Cast a long shadow: I love stories which flesh out Petunia Dursley and her relationship with Lily, and this one accomplishes both beautifully. It also offers bonus!Snape at the edges, and leads us from Petunia's and Lily's childhood to post-Deathly Hallows territory.

...and now I'll go back to stop myself looking for feedback for my own story by reciting mantras along the lines of "remember, old fandom, unpopular pairing, you didn't expect anything anyway"....
