Title: She Ain't Heavy...
Genre: Legend of the Seeker; Cara-centric
Rating: PG, rated for general concepts
Timeline: Post "Touched"
Summary: She ain't heavy, she's my sister...
Author's Notes: This is actually a little piece that I wrote a while ago, but as per the rules, I believe that it fits within this community's scope. *grin*

Oh, and the title is a play on, "he ain't heavy, he's my brother."

Fic: Raise the Curtain, Martha Rodgers (Castle)

[damelola.livejournal.com]

Title: Raise the Curtain
Author: lauriestein
Rating: G
Characters: Martha
Disclaimer: Not mine, not stealing, no profits being made.
Spoilers: Nothing past season 1
Prompt: opening night written for zeldaophelia
Summary: In the space of a day, everything's gone.  Martha still has to face the crowd.


This place puts the off in off(-off)-Broadway, that's for damn sure.  Martha reaches for the weak martini that's been slowly evaporating in the hot, airless closet that masquerades as a dressing room and knocks the rest back in one gulp.  The crackling murmur over the tannoy signals the impending half-hour call before the bored stage manager can utter the words.

Meta links

[penknife.livejournal.com]

I'm a mod of idol_reflection, a multifandom community for meta essays about characters people like and want to introduce to other fans. I posted last year with links to 31 essays posted there about female characters, many including fanfic recs and links to character-centric communities.

( New essays about female characters since last year: )

Again, if you'd be interested in sharing your love for a favorite character, feel free to check out the claims list and consider writing an essay of your own; we've got fewer essays about female characters than male characters, and I'd love to see more women represented.

(Teyla Emmagan, anyone? Cordelia Chase? Laura Roslin? Guinevere? Morgana? Sam Carter? Nyota Uhura?)

[Picspam] Han Ji Eun

[anenko.livejournal.com]

Full House--no, not the one you're thinking of!--is a Korean drama about a couple named Han Ji Eun and Lee Young Jae. He's a superstar actor with poor impulse control and a clean-streak a mile wide, and she's an internet novelist who gets swindled out of her life's savings by her best friends.

Due to certain circumstances, Ji Eun and Young Jae end up in a contract marriage. Naturally, they can't stand one another. Of course, they end up falling in love.

The OTP is adorable, but I'm not here to talk about that. I'm here to squee about Ji Eun. She is occasionally childish, sometimes dramatic, and isn't above lying for a good cause. She also has a warm and compassionate heart, and refuses to fold down and give up in the face of some seriously unpleasant circumstances.

Also: she will headbutt you in the face if you mess with her. My girl is fierce. ♥

Rating: G
Summary: Double Drabble. It's like a partnership, and also like a trade.
A/N: Written for halfamoon. (It's like this. I was at Target and saw they had Amanda Waller toys and was suddenly wondering why I hadn't already written three million stories about her already.)

Picspam: The Awesome Ladies of Being Human

[springinstep.livejournal.com]

One of my favourite shows on TV right now. Basically, a vampire (who is trying to kick the blood habit), a werewolf (who is having some trouble associating his human side with his werewolf side), and a ghost (who makes cups of tea she can't drink) share a house in Bristol. Oh, shenanigans.

Warning: Image heavy, spoilers for series 1, some images contain graphic violence.

(There is a question you haven't asked yourself yet. If I exist what else does?...)

Primeval Fabulous Females

[alyse]

In January of last year, after getting a bit fed up with the lack of attention paid to female characters in Primeval fandom, we ran a Fabulous Females Fest over on primeval_canon. We decided to run the same thing this year and due to my complete lack of organisation and the joys of alliteration, we scheduled it for February.

And that's when I was pointed over to this comm, which I didn't know existed before then! (So thanks to vivien529 for the pointer and yay! for celebration of female characters.)

So in the spirit of bringing something to the table, I hope it's okay for me to link to the fic, icons etc that were produced last year. There's a whole tag for it, and everything can be found here.

Fic: The Question (Flashpoint, Jules)

[rustler.livejournal.com]

Title: The Question
Author: rustler
Fandom: Flashpoint
Character: Jules Callaghan (with mild Jules/Sam)
Summary: Jules was used to the question – practically everyone she knew had asked her at one point or another. She just didn't expect to hear it from the guy waving a 9mm in the middle of a Wal-Mart parking lot, surrounded by her team, dozens of spectators, and what felt like half the metro police.

Notes: Written for wordsflow in Yuletide 2009. Huge thanks to keiko-kirin for friendly Yuletide beta. :-)

Picspam: Molly Caffrey (Carla Gugino) in Threshold

[trascendenza]

Molly Caffrey, played by Carla Gugino, in the 13-episode sci-fi TV show Threshold, with some bonus shots of some of the other women who show up in the series, as well.

Molly Caffrey is: a contingency analyst who is saving our planet from an evil invading alien force; calm, cool, and collected during time of crises; wearer of a ridiculous amount of gorgeous jackets; AWESOME.

Fandom: Leverage
Pairing: Parker/Hardison
Length: ~400 words
Rating: R
Summary: Alec has long since learned that when it comes to Parker you have to expect the unexpected, but he didn't think there was anything unexpected to expect about this, and that's obviously where he went wrong.
Notes: Written for ms_treesap's prompt of "Hardison/Parker, non-heteronormative".

Crack!Crossover fic: The Trouble With St. Trinian's, St. T/Torchwood, PG13

[lyssie.livejournal.com]

disclaimer: not mine
fandoms: St. Trinian's, Torchwood
spoilers: 2007 St. Trinian's movie, Children of Earth
length: 2600
genre: AU, humor, crossover, crack.
rating: PG13? language, the nature of CoE's dark plot.
notes: I have both Children of Earth and St. Trinian's as mp3s for listening to while at work. This, um, does rather horrendous things to my brain. There are some logistical problems (driving time) that I'm hand-waving, but, in the end, I don't think my plot holes are any worse. Any misspelled names are my own fault.
set: takes place during Day Five.
