DesireeArmfeldt - Ellen Fanshaw/Geoffrey Tennant, Jack Crew/Kate McNab
Characters: Geoffrey Tennant, Jack Crew, Ellen Fanshaw, Kate McNab
Jack and Geoffrey and their enduring friendship. I love everything about this story, but especially the way we see Jack and Geoffrey's relationship change and grow as their lives change.
We Shall Remain in Friendship (1449 words) byspuffyduds
Really great Anna and Geoffrey friendship fic. I love the dynamic between them in the show and I really love this take on how they first met and became friends.
Life
Pieces of a Whole (485 words) byaj2245
Short but wonderful. Really captures Dani and Charlie's relationship.
Fame
Being What We Can (12390 words) byoliviacirce - Ralph Garci/Montgomery MacNeil, Ralph Garci/Doris Finsecker, Montgomery MacNeil & Doris Finsecker
Wonderful, slow-building poly-fic, that is also most-definitely a love-letter to the theater.
The Thin Man
Climb Into The World (470 words) bybessemerprocess - Nick Charles/Nora Charles
The one where Nick and Nora are Time Lords. Of course! Because that explains so much…
Considerably Before the Thin Man (2211 words) byFabrisse - Nick Charles/Nora Charles
Nick meets Nora. Of course there's a murder involved. Simply delightful!
Singin' in the Rain
Girl Of My Dreams (1438 words) byAndraste - Cosmo Brown/Don Lockwood, Don Lockwood/Kathy Selden
Absolutely delightful Cosmo and Kathy friendship fic.
A League Of Their Own
Hear That Call (4595 words) byisbmlamloi - Jimmy Dugan/Dottie Hinson, Mae Mordabito/Doris Murphy
Captures the feel of the movie and the characters wonderfully. A lovely look at a friendship that slowly turns into something more. WIth bonus background lesbians \o/
Sunset Boulevard
Lebenswerk (9874 words) bySelena - Norma Desmond/Max von Mayerling, Norma Desmond/Joe Gillis
A marvelous and chilling backstory for Max and Norma. Max's obsession with Norma is just the right kind of disturbing. And the rapidly shifting, emotionally charged power dynamics between them, the way they push and pull and ultimately wrap around and destroy each other is heartbreakingly perfect.
Casablanca
It's Still the Same Old Story (2618 words) bymisslucyjane - Rick Blaine/Louis Renault
A great character piece focusing on Rick trying to find his place after the war. This felt very right and true to the character to me.
How to Train Your Dragon
This is Berk. This is My Home. (1533 words) bybilltheradish
A lovely exploration of Astrid and her history and motivations. I love this idea of what Astrid's mother might be like, and how complicated their relationship is.
Into the Woods
the rope you began with (was never that straight) (3819 words) byFahye - Baker/Cinderella
A charming look at the future of Cinderella and the other survivors of Into the Woods. The Cinderella-pov is wonderful, and the incorporation of glimpses of other fairytales was delightful.
