estiroseI think I love Yuletide. Of my seven fics, five have gotten comments, and I'm sure the others will as soon as their recipients are available. I forgot to put summaries on some of them, so the recipients might well be the only ones to read them.
Anyway, here are some recs on fics I've read:
All That I Have - Hana-Kimi (manga)
This is Manga-verse, which I've never read, but I liked Nakatsu and Kayashima in the J-drama version. (I liked Nakatsu over Sano, really.) This is a Nakatsu/Kayashima story, with them as roommates and starting a relationship as well.
Conner Gets Wired - Power Rangers Dino Thunder
Conner is the only one who escapes a monster due to being late, and figures out how to win - or at least get the team to have a fighting chance. A great story of Conner using his head and his powers.
When Evil Twins Attack - Power Rangers Dino Thunder
There was a lot of Conner-fic this year, and I think I saw three Conner/Kira fics in the group. Anyway, copycat Rangers, soccer robots, and an evil plan make trouble for the team and especially for Conner.
Brilliant Ideas - Power Rangers Dino Thunder
Conner and Ethan try to make sure Trent and Kira are up to no good at the movie theater, but get distracted. This one was written for me, and it has Trent and Kira being a couple. And it's cute!
Outfits Worse Than Form Fitting Spandex - Power Rangers Dino Thunder
Conner borrows clothes from Hayley after an accident, and is very embarrassed by it. Great dialogue, funny lines, and I felt for Conner. I'm thinking this was written by the person who got me as a recipient, and they did a great job with my request.
Off to See - Scarecrow and Mrs. King
I think I dated myself, but I was very fond of this series way back when. This is Amanda and Lee twenty years post-series as Amanda retires from the Agency. I have to admit, I'm a sucker for Scarecrow & Mrs. King fics, and especially nice, sweet ones.
Right on Your Table - Starman (TV)
Somebody did a fantastic job with this story about Scott being captured by Fox and dealing with being in captivity. Paul barely appears, but that's okay because this story is about Scott, about his resentments and who he is.
Beginnings - Terry Pratchett (Discworld)
Death does something he doesn't usually do. This is a short, sweet fic about Death finding himself in an unusual situation.
Home - Time Trax
This is a short, sweet fic about Darien after he arrives back in his own time, and what "home" really means.
At Home - Gokusen (TV)
This is a short fic about Sawada, and Yankumi's family's acceptance of him. It shifts POV a bit, effectively drawing a picture of Sawada finding a home among the family.
