Dec. 31st, 2008 12:39 pmI should probably do a Yuletide post, huh?
I want to say thank you to my lovely writer for An Alan Smithee Sequel! Most Kiss Kiss Bang Bang fic I've seen in the past has centered on Harry n' Perry and often made Harmony look ditzy; it seems pretty clear to me that she has interesting stories of her own and she's the smartest person in that movie, so I asked my Secret Santa to give Harmony something to do. :) And they delivered, shining a light on Harmony in a quirky OT3 story with additional material from Harry complaining about her narration skills. ("Hi, this is Harry, Harry Lockhart, you may remember me from such narration as That Movie That Nobody Saw.") Thank you, mystery person! Here's to Yuletide.
And here's an assortment of other recs that happen to be open in my browser, selected semi-randomly from the UNBELIEVABLE volume of good fic this year:
Sherlock Holmes
Commonplaces: THIS IS SO WHAT HAPPENED to Irene Norton, nee Adler. Yum.
There are TWO pitch-perfect archy and mehitabel stories! In which...
to hell with anything unrefined: mehitabel gets political...
archy explains the new millenium: ...and archy leans on the boss to bring his office into the twenty-first century.
Strangers with Candy
The Greatest Gift, in which Chuck and Geoffrey...are...Chuck and Geoffrey.
Sandman
Pieces of Time: Delirium in a pensive mood, in her own way.
30 Rock
I'll Ask Her: This story was inevitable. Fortunately, the brave writer who took on the mission performed beautifully.
Fragments of a day, a life, a NBC page: Odd title (and they accidentally call Tracy Jordan "Tracy Morgan" a couple times), but great Kenneth voice and everybody else voice.
Casablanca
33° 35' N, 7° 39' W: I've always been fond of Victor Laszlo, but I didn't realize how much I wanted to see a fic with a strong, perceptive Laszlo POV until I ran across this one.
Transmetropolitan
The Worst Thing That Has Ever Happened To Spider Jerusalem: Spot-on character voices. Funny and acidic.
3rd Rock from the Sun
Mission Report: They've been on Earth all this time and they haven't gotten around to lesbian experimentation yet...
And do the other things: Post-series. Tommy discovers that you, um, can't go home again.
